About 70 Swallow Cove Spur
Presenting a waterfront oasis at the end of Swallow Cove Spur with 316 feet of ocean frontage. Constructed in 1991, this cute cottage is in a prime location, directly across from Dauphinees Island. Featuring a duplicated design of the Mahone Bay Tourism Centre with an addition (den and extra bedroom). The protected waterfront has a wharf/ramp/float providing great depth and access to the Atlantic Ocean. Just shy of an acre, the landscape is treed, with elevation, giving fantastic views. Entering the ground floor, an open concept kitchen/dining room captures all the elements of nature with a great transition to the full-length deck and barbecue area on the waterside. The main floor den has a wood stove, and gorgeous views of the ocean. A full main bathroom with a shower is centrally located on the main floor. Two bedrooms and additional storage grace the second floor. In total, just over 1000 square feet of living area plus a 190 square foot boathouse. Gorgeous cedar roof shingles and wood panel exterior give this home a classic design. Pine flooring and interiors make it a true cottage experience. A ramp system with multiple decks runs down to the wharf, providing comfortable access to the water. As to the location of this property, it scores high, as it is a mere 5 minutes’ drive to the village of Chester, a singular village where everything is possible, including fine art at the Chester Art Centre, theatre at the Chester Playhouse, dockside seafood chowder at the Rope Loft, lattes at the Kiwi Café, fine dining at the Sunroom, sailing at the Chester Yacht Club, tall tales at the Focsle Tavern, relaxation at the Sensea Nordic Spa, fresh produce from the Farmer’s Market, hiking and cycling on The Rum Runners Trail, and sports at the Chester Tennis, Curling & Golf Clubs; all this capped by a quick 45-minute drive to the city of Halifax, thanks to Highway 103’s so-called twinning completion.
