5429 Granville Rd, Annapolis, NS B0S 1A0

First time on the market for this lovely Victorian home in the village of Granville Ferry; well known for its beautiful period architecture and easy walking and biking along the sparkling shores of the tidal Annapolis River. This stately home is set back from the road and elevated, providing enticing views of the river. You will be struck by its beautifully-proportioned, original facade, and the large (1/3 acre) lot shaded by soaring maples and accented by flowering shrubs. The owner has created 3 distinct outdoor living areas: an east-facing deck for morning coffee, a private deck on the west side for afternoon naps and barbeques, and a welcoming fire pit area for evenings under the stars with wine and s'mores! Plenty of space in back for gardening, pets & kids. Rest easy! All the big jobs have been taken care of for you. The exterior has been recently painted and is sporting a new roof and gutters. Most of the decking is also new. An extensive list of upgrades (inside and out) are available by request or download. The house is presently divided into two flats, (one up, one down) with separate entrances, providing you with a convenient 1 or 2 bedroom family suite or apartment, above a larger main floor living space, currently set up with 2 bedrooms. This flexible layout can easily be converted back to single family living with the return of the west parlour doorway. The interior of this home is full of beautifully preserved original elements such as crown mouldings, mantles and doors, plus a stunning tin ceiling in the living room. The family room has a beamed, cathedral ceiling, providing a more contemporary feel, and a place to cozy up to the wood stove on a chilly night. The east and west decks flank this room. The spacious eat-in kitchen is simply appointed and a generous space to add elements that suit your needs. Inside and out, you will be struck by the pride of ownership and care taken to preserve this gracious home for generations. 2021-12-10
