About 69 Knickle Road
A Dutch Colonial, circa 1940, will work its charms the moment you walk through the door. If a traditional time-honored construction and floor plan, and old fashioned trim and seasoned hardwood floors speak to you, this affordable, vintage home may be the one you have been watching for. Well cared for, the house lends its rear view over former pasture land and old orchards on an elevated large lot - sited on a quiet road across from the recreational fields of the Bluenose Academy. A bright, cheerful kitchen and dining room open to a living room with views over an open field across the road. A newer, main floor primary-suite-addition, built in 2010, provides a large bedroom, full bath and generous storage for one floor living. Alternatively, it could also be used as a spacious, light-filled family room. The second level has the second family bath and features three cozy bedrooms in the gables, each featuring solid hardwood floors. A large covered porch at the front of the house is the perfect respite to close a summer day when it comes time to put up one's feet and watch the sun set to the west. The backyard and generous deck, offers a second outdoor entertainment space for family get-togethers. A spacious mowed lawn to the rear of this home is ideally suited to gardening or as a secure play-yard for children. A detached single garage at the end of a paved driveway would provide storage for Dad's prized vehicle, or maybe Mom has a workshop in mind. A metal roof was installed on the house and garage in 2017. This property would make an ideal location for a young family or two "empty nesters". A new school, arena, tennis courts, bowling alley, year-round farmers' market, grocery store, liquor store, hardware store, service garage and Tim Horton's are a convenient walk or minutes drive away. This home is less than a ten minute walk to the ocean fronting "one of the most beautiful small towns in Canada".
