Sometimes it’s all about the location—and this one truly delivers. Formerly a duplex and now used as a single-family home, this property offers a plethora of possibilities: Convert it back to a duplex for rental income (each floor has its own 100-amp service). Operate as an Airbnb—either as a single unit or two separate suites. Keep it as your own spacious family home. With a park across the street and the beach just steps away, outdoor enjoyment is right at your fingertips. You’ll be within walking distance to Main Street shops, restaurants, banks, pubs, and more—plus just a short stroll to the Marine Atlantic ferry terminal. Located right on a bus route, so where you can’t walk, you can ride. The home sits close to the street, allowing for a generous backyard space. Main Floor: Kitchen, 3-piece bath, open-concept dining and living room, front porch, and foyer. Second Floor: Three bedrooms, a living area, and a 4-piece bath. Welcome to a property with endless potential—whether for income, investment, or simply enjoying the perfect location.
