Property Description

Step back in time without sacrificing modern comfort at this beautifully restored late-1800s home in the peaceful community of Pleasant River. Set on 4.75 picturesque acres overlooking Waterman’s Lake, this truly one-of-a-kind property offers the perfect opportunity for year-round living or a relaxing seasonal getaway. A welcoming covered porch leads into the functional kitchen before opening into the heart of the home—a stunning living space filled with natural light and spectacular lake views. Beautiful barnwood floors, a cozy woodstove and an energy-efficient heat pump create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Completing the main level are a full bathroom along with a convenient laundry and storage area. Upstairs you’ll find two spacious bedrooms, while the updated basement preserves the original stone foundation, adding even more character and history to this remarkable home. Outside, the property is equally impressive. A charming historic barn welcomes you from the roadside, while extensive gardens and mature landscaping create a peaceful setting leading to the waterfront. At the water’s edge sits a beautiful boathouse filled with potential, complete with a covered outdoor space where you can relax with a book, entertain family and friends, or simply enjoy breathtaking sunsets over the lake. Rich in history, thoughtfully restored, and surrounded by natural beauty, this exceptional property offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Nova Scotia’s past while enjoying the comforts of today.
