Charming Prince Edward Island Home for Sale! - Home

I ran into an old colleague today and she told me about her brother's home they have been trying to sell for two years. It seems her brother recently spent about $100,000 updating and did most of the work himself.

The listing price is $129,000.00 and includes 6 appliances...unbelievable!




The garage alone could be a cottage!







Property Details

Home

First time on the market in generations! This is a beautiful 2,500 square foot century farm home on more than half an acre of land. This desirable year-round home has been entirely rebuilt and updated from top to bottom by its second-generation owner, an expert tradesman. The structurally-sound renovated home features an improved foundation, newer insulation, electrical and plumbing. It is freshly painted inside and recently painted outside.

The property is heated by two furnaces: oil and wood*, located in a full basement with 8-ft ceilings. The large oil-fired hot water heater and excellent water pressure are ideal for those long, hot showers. Water is provided from well drilled into a deeper water table than most homes in the area. The water is better for your family and eliminates any hard water issues found with shallow wells. The house features excellent air circulation with many cross-breezes, which saves on A/C energy costs.

Residence features a bright interior with eat-in kitchen, large windows. Each door is trimmed with wide hand-cut pine finish and hardwood floors are found throughout the home. On both the main and second floors, there are a total of 6 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, one with Jacuzzi tub and the second with a large shower. The laundry room and the large (20-ft x 11.5-ft) master bedroom with ensuite are on the main level for easy access.

With 14 rooms, this home is large but not overwhelming. It fits a large family just as comfortably as a small family. It is also ideal for those with extended family that visit, for island vacationers who like to entertain, or for those interested in running a business from home. The large detached garage (see below) is perfect for light industrial or commercial work and the house can be set up as a wonderful Bed & Breakfast.

The home also has a charming south east veranda shaded by two mature trees, where you can relax and enjoy the country environment. Keep the screen sliding door open on the veranda to get the refreshing country breeze blowing in, or sit on the porch enjoying its unique feature… its own mature tree, growing right out of the veranda!

Spend your time in the west side of this beautiful island where the sunsets are second to none!
