Welcome to 1480 Cow Bay Road — a stunning waterfront retreat offering the perfect blend of coastal beauty, privacy, and everyday comfort. Tucked away on a quiet laneway and set on a flat 1.5-acre lot with nearly 400 feet of frontage on regularly stocked Cow Bay Lake, this exceptional property invites you to embrace the East Coast lifestyle. Spend your summers kayaking from your own backyard, fishing off the shoreline, paddleboarding at sunset, or simply soaking in the peaceful surroundings while enjoying sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean. Inside, the home features a bright and spacious open-concept design with 9-foot ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and oversized windows that flood the space with natural light and showcase the spectacular water views. A welcoming foyer opens into the living and dining areas, complete with elegant pine crown mouldings that add warmth and character throughout. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with quartz countertops, a 5-burner gas stove, and plenty of space for entertaining family and friends. Just off the living room, the cozy back deck offers the perfect setting for morning coffee, evening wine, or watching the sun rise over the ocean. Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite featuring panoramic water views, his-and-hers closets, and a spa-inspired ensuite. Convenient second-floor laundry adds to the thoughtful layout. The fully walk-out basement offers incredible flexibility with a large rec room, gym space, full bathroom, and rough-in for a second kitchen- ideal for extended family, guests, or future secondary suite potential. Built just 12 years ago with reinforced floors, hurricane ties, durable siding, and energy-efficient R2000 insulation, this home was designed for both comfort and peace of mind. Just minutes from world-class surfing beaches, the Salt Marsh Trail, and endless outdoor recreation, all while remaining a short drive from the city.
