18 Janes Road, Oakland

Completed in July of 2024, this newly constructed home is tucked away in the small valley of the Mushamush River, above the estuary where the River meets Mahone Bay. Janes Road lies hidden off the old, coastal Highway 3, just before the bridge at the river, marking the boundary of Oakland and the Town of Mahone Bay by the sea. This cul-de-sac ends below the former railway bridge providing a connection to a path to the popular "Rails To Trails" which passes through the historic, coastal towns of Lunenburg County. Constructed beneath a canopy of mature trees, this 1,650 sq. ft. home is on two levels, with a second-floor, covered verandah (7ft x 37ft) across the full front facade. The foundation is of insulated concrete for the lower level which is full walk-out at the front facing west. The 12ft by 20ft garage (easily adaptable as 250 sq ft of additional living space) opens directly to a large family-room which is adjacent a bedroom and full 4-piece bath. This lower level would be suitable for a parent or family member, or would also serve well as a large, one-bedroom, income suite. The main level features a large, open-concept living-dining-kitchen with glass doors opening to the broad, elevated, outdoor-living space. The main floor provides two bedrooms - one at the front and one at the rear of the home, separated by a hall and spacious family bath. The laundry is off the rear foyer which opens to a private deck and beautiful back yard. This brand new home would provide an ideal location for a buyer seeking a country setting within easy-walking distance of one of the most beautiful, small coastal-towns in Eastern Canada. Perfect location for small boats or kayaks, cyclists, walkers and bird watchers. Please note, due to this home being outside the town limits, the benefit of lower county taxes apply. The home comes with all new appliances and a new-home warranty. It offers all electric heating and cooling, with ductless heat-pump on the main level. HST applicable. (id:1945)
