A Private Oasis in the Heart of Wolfville. Set on nearly an acre of total privacy on Westwood Avenue, this spacious home combines, character, and modern comfort, all within easy walking distance of downtown, the local P8 school, and Acadia University with its many events and amenities. Built in 1947 and beautifully maintained, the home features hardwood floors, cove mouldings, wainscoting, and built-ins throughout. A bright, south-facing kitchen opens to a courtyard with a tranquil fountain and hot tub. The adjacent in-ground bromine pool bordered by a large cedar deck is perfect for outdoor meals and summer relaxation. The mature, low-maintenance garden includes specimen trees (magnolias, Japanese maples) and flowering shrubs (roses, azaleas, wisteria). Though just a short walk from town, the lot is completely hidden from view - a rare find in Wolfville. Inside, the layout balances space for entertaining with practical family living. The main floor features a propane fireplace, a renovated laundry/mudroom with heated floors, and a private office ideal for remote work. Upstairs, you'll find 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, including a beautifully appointed ensuite with heated marble floors, a glass shower, and a soaker tub. A treetop attic loft with skylights offers a peaceful retreat or flexible bonus space. The walk-out basement offers excellent storage or development potential. A detached pool building houses equipment, and a second shed adds storage. The paved driveway and two parking pads provide ample parking. Year-round comfort is provided by a ducted heat pump system for heating and cooling, backed by an oil furnace and supplemental electric baseboard heaters in the bedrooms for added peace of mind. A financed rooftop solar system (via the Wolfville Switch program) help keep energy costs low - monthly savings currently exceed the payment amount. A rare opportunity - private, walkable, and designed for real living. Book your visit today! (id:51532)
