Imagine owning a private riverfront country retreat just minutes from town. Set on a south-facing 3-acre lot with direct Shubenacadie River frontage, this sun-filled 4-level side-split offers peaceful surroundings, exceptional privacy, and easy access to Enfield, Elmsdale, Lantz, and Halifax Stanfield Airport. Freshly painted and thoughtfully designed, the open-concept main floor is bathed in natural morning light and anchored by solid maple hardwood floors. The chef-inspired kitchen features quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and ample storage ideal for everyday living and entertaining. Oversized windows and double French doors connect seamlessly to an expansive deck and screened gazebo where you can relax or host gatherings. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms provide private retreats, including a tranquil primary suite with his-and-hers walk-in closets and a spa-style bathroom. The lower levels add flexibility with a bright rec room, renovated laundry, and a large bonus room with its own bath and exterior entrance perfect for a home office, studio, guest suite, or small business. Wellness and comfort are enhanced by a custom red cedar infrared sauna and fully equipped fitness room. Practical features include a water filtration system, GenerLink generator hookup, central vacuum, and new septic field. Outdoors, mature trees, perennial gardens, and wide-open green space create a private park-like setting with room for a pool, pickleball court, skating rink, or simply exploring. Zoned VIL, the property allows select institutional and commercial uses under HRM guidelines, offering rare flexibility. With ample parking, a storage shed, and numerous inclusions, this move-in-ready riverfront home offers a rare opportunity to embrace country living where space, nature, and convenience come together in perfect balance.
