About 1389 South Rawdon Road

This 277 acre horse farm is just 40 mins from HRM. Sale includes 3 parcels with over 1300 ft of riverfront on Meander River (same river that has made Smiley’s Park so popular) and 1,700+ ft of road frontage on South Rawdon Rd. Enormous potential – eco-tourism, raising livestock, farming, recreation, or just a tranquil & private family sanctuary with rolling fields, mature woodland and miles of trails. The 3 bed, 2.5 bath timber-framed home with steel roof was custom designed and built by Heritage Cedar Homes. With large windows, soaring ceilings and tongue n groove pine interior, this home makes every day feel like a getaway vacation. The family room boasts a wood burning fireplace, wall to wall windows and opens to a wrap-around deck where you can sip your morning coffee and watch the horses graze in the fields. The open concept dining room leads to a large back deck with covered gazebo that faces a 100’ x 200’ outdoor riding ring. No expense was spared in the construction of this ring – it was designed for ideal footing and drainage. This home has an executive feel – large primary bedroom with shared ensuite bath, huge walk-in closet, skylights, cathedral ceilings, full basement with walk-out and lots of room for extended family or future in-law suite. The Brightspan indoor arena is 60’ x 120’ and has 5 box stalls with System Fence stall hardware, plus a wash stall area that could be easily converted to a 6th stall. The loft that was previously used for hay storage could be opened up to make a viewing lounge. There is a wired Quonset hut garage and workshop. Approx 24 acres is cleared for pasture and approx. 10 acres is partially fenced. Wide, welcoming horse (or 4-wheeler) trails wind through the forests and fields. The trail down to the river is now overgrown, but provides unlimited potential for future recreational activities. The extensive road frontage which could allow for future subdivision make this 277 acre one of a kind property a solid investment.
