857 Granville Road, Victoria Beach, NS (MLS® 202321220): This Gem by the Bay is on the market for the first time since it was built by the owner's great great grandfather circa 1855! Generations of the family and their friends have enjoyed ocean views, bracing sea air and magnificent sunsets from the front veranda, and walks down the hill to the beach and fishing wharf. Almost all rooms of this charming home offer a lovely view of the sea. From the charming veranda, enter into the bright and cheerful open living and dining room which features hardwood floors, a built in china cabinet, a bay window (a great breakfast nook) and staircase to the second floor. The spacious kitchen with knotty pine cabinetry offers a walk-out to the veranda, plus a "secret stair" to the second floor to directly access the 4 piece bath. A unique feature of this small house is that it has 3 staircases! On the second floor, the largest bedroom has a closet and a direct connection to the bathroom. Another bedroom down the hall has an adjacent walk in closet or possible office space. Both bedrooms offer the best water views, a nice way to start the day! A 3rd staircase takes you to the attic and two functional rooms; good for storage and great for children's playrooms and a fun place to camp for the night. This house does have an Efel oil stove (as is) but no oil tank, so there is no source of heat for year round living. Installing an oil tank, heat pump or wood stove could be other options for those who want to enjoy the property year round. A new slab foundation and new chimney were installed in 1999, and in the last 18 months it has been completely refreshed and enjoyed as a Summer retreat. The electrical was recently brought up to code and new plumbing fixtures, water heater, and new bathroom flooring were also added. A new pipe to the drilled well was just installed. This property is a must see for anyone looking for a Summer home close to the water and within 25 minutes from Annapolis Royal, along one of the prettiest routes in the province.
Directions: From Granville Ferry follow Granville Road to Victoria Beach. Property is on the right, soon after the road to the wharf.
