Old World charm meets 21st Century comfort in this beautifully restored and extensively updated Second Empire home. Sitting pretty in a park-like setting, with an attached garage, garden shed, wrap around veranda, private decks and paved driveway, this property has everything including views of Digby harbour. The main entry hall sets the tone for the exceptional quality and character throughout this home: high ceilings, gleaming hardwood floors, original mill work, lovely light fixtures, grand staircase, and large windows. The adjoining front rooms feature dramatic decor; crystal chandeliers, 2 slate fireplace mantels and bay windows. Perfect for elegant dining and entertaining, you can walk out to the veranda with your drinks and enjoy the sea air. The well appointed kitchen is a newer addition with cathedral ceiling, exposed beams, skylights, a sunny breakfast area and access to the deck. Also on the main floor, a cozy family room with built in cabinet and French doors to the deck, an office or hobby room, and 3-pc bath. A generous side foyer off the kitchen provides access to the driveway, utility room and garage. The grand staircase curves up to the 2nd level under a glittering chandelier. Two front bedrooms overlook the town and the Harbour beyond. The 3rd bedroom also has a view of the water, and a small 4th bedroom has a garden view. The recently renovated 5-pc bath (w/adjoining laundry room) boasts a 2-sink vanity with marble top, a walk-in shower, and a new soaking tub. Notice the lovely deep-set window frames throughout the second floor, a unique feature of the Mansard Roof. Improvements in the past 5 years include landscaping, energy efficiency, new heat pumps, electrical and plumbing, basement foam insulation, roof shingles, and so much more.
