Property Description

This unique property has to be seen! Believed to have been built between 1897-1902, it is steeped in history. A supplement on this storied house is available upon request, including the story of the cannon that was housed there and the time Joey Smallwood stayed over during his campaign for confederation. The house was taken back to the studs in 2010 and refitted with new foundations, complete rewiring, a 200 amp panel, pex plumbing, all new windows, doors, clapboard siding, insulation, and much more. The character of this home remains but the comfort and quality of contemporary materials and features like the mini split heat pumps and the hot tub enclosure are sure to impress. The main floor has a bright and commanding greatroom with a view of the harbour and its historic lighthouse. The open concept means you can enjoy that same view from your kitchen, living, and dining areas. There is a separate living room that is beautifully suited for watching TV and movies. The large porch has pantry space and laundry. A full bathroom is conveniently located next to the hot tub enclosure, a private and relaxing luxury room which then leads to a sheltered pedway to the massive garage! This oversize garage boasts two Garaga doors, power and insulation, even its own mini split. The second floor has a beautiful bathroom, primary bedroom, two additional good sized bedrooms, and a fourth "bedroom" that could make a great nursery or small office. The main house has a metal roof with the character of the mansard remaining, a flat roof for the porch area, and shingles for the garage. Just 20 minutes from Carbonear, Heart's Content has an active heritage society, many designated heritage homes, and a Cable Station museum that is on track to being a UNESCO world heritage site. As per the Sellers' Direction, there will be no conveyance of offers before 1:00 pm on Sunday, July 13, 2025. Offers to be left open until 6 pm to allow for presentation. (id:47053)
