About 91 Creighton Street

A CRAFTSMAN MASTERPIECE! – In a town renowned for its historic architecture, 91 Creighton stands as arguably the finest example of a Craftsman period home to be found in Lunenburg. On the outside, the home exhibits signature Craftsman elements like the gently swooping roofline with overhanging eaves and a covered front verandah with columns adorned with local beach stones. Inside, find original details like oak trim & panelling, leaded glass windows, built-in cabinets & window seat, wide openings w/ columns between principal rooms and a cozy fireplace flanked by built-in inglenook benches. Hardwood floors unit the gracious & open living spaces and large windows fill the interior with natural light. A fresh & bright kitchen enjoys a sunny breakfast nook and a walkout to a large deck that overlooks the gardens and Lunenburg's back harbour. A modern convenience not always found in period homes is a main floor bedroom & full bath w/ laundry. Upstairs are 3 generous bedrooms, 2 with full ensuites & large walk-in closets. The high & dry lower level is partially finished with a sprawling room ideally suited to be a media room, gym or hobby room with a garden-level walkout. Also below is lots of storage & workshop space. This special property includes a 2nd parcel of land, and combined totals an impressive .42 acre with the back yard & gardens fully fenced to keep the deer out, and the pooch in. The lush gardens feature a mix of fruit trees, flowering shrubs & perennials, and there's a 16 x 8 greenhouse to help you get a head start in spring. An extended paved driveway on one side of the house leads to a matching garage building, and a grass driveway on the other side provides extra parking for additional vehicles or visitors -- and good thing, as you won't need the car to enjoy all that Lunenburg has to offer. A multitude of interesting shops & galleries, cafes & restaurants, and the attractions on the famous waterfront are just blocks away from your front door.
