Property Description

A storied character home with rare upside: 11659 Highway 16 sits on 6.11 acres across 5 PIDs and includes 260 feet of frontage on sheltered Broad Cove. Mature trees, perennials gardens and park-like lawns frame the home which dates back to the early 1900s. Its classic Edwardian silhouette has been tastefully updated with architectural shingles (2020) and low-maintenance vinyl siding and windows. Inside, the heritage shows in the small things. Refurbished hardwood floors run room to room. Original Douglas Fir trim frames every door. A decorative fireplace anchors the formal living room. From the dining room, the eye is pulled into a generous four-season sunroom that runs the full front of the home — and beyond it, out to the harbour. Custom cabinetry and quartz counters wrap a centre island with 5-burner gas cooktop, set off by a clean subway-tile backsplash. The powder room and home office (ideal for work-from-home in rural Nova Scotia) completes the main floor. A wide centre staircase leads to three generous bedrooms upstairs, including a primary suite with walk-in closet, ensuite with double vanity and walk-in shower, and a private den tucked into a canted bay window — a true Edwardian hallmark, and the best reading nook in the house. The partially finished lower level adds a rec room and dedicated laundry. Behind the period details, the house lives quietly modern: a ducted heat pump for year-round heating and cooling and blown-in insulation keep this 120-year-old home easy to run today. Then there's the land. With 5 PIDs and a 3.5-acre waterfront parcel included, the property gives you real options — build on the cove, sell off lots, or simply keep the oceanfront to launch your kayak. Guysborough County is best known for its rugged coast and unspoiled nature, but the everyday essentials are also close at hand. Within 10 km: grocery store, bank, library, restaurants, a hospital, and a curling club. Antigonish and StFX University are a 40-minute drive.
