Property Description
There are properties you buy for square footage, and then there are properties you buy because of how they make you feel the moment you arrive. Set along the ocean in the coastal community of Sandford, this west-facing waterfront property was built for slow mornings, salty air, and evenings spent watching the sun disappear into the horizon. From nearly every room in the home, the ocean remains front and centre, creating a sense of calm that is difficult to put into words until you experience it yourself. Set on approximately 1.5 acres with a gently sloping shoreline, the property offers a rare combination of comfort, function, and flexibility. Whether your dream is hobby farming, boating, working on projects, or simply having room to breathe, the infrastructure is already here. The property includes three separate outbuildings, including a wired single garage, a barn with concrete flooring, and an oversized 30x22 garage/shop with a 12x12 door and its own 200-amp service, ideal for storing a camper, boat, workshop equipment, or creating the ultimate hobby space. Inside, the home has been extensively renovated and upgraded over the last four years. Major improvements include full basement waterproofing and encapsulation, updated siding with added insulation, windows and doors, decks, kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, heat pump installation, and more. Efficient heating options include a WETT-certified wood stove, ductless heat pump, and hot water baseboards, while the durable metal roof adds peace of mind for years to come. Upstairs, the ocean-facing upper level offers a unique space that could function beautifully as a studio, reading loft, creative retreat, or private primary suite. This is the kind of property people come to Nova Scotia hoping to find. Peaceful, private, oceanfront living with unforgettable sunsets.
