157 Queen Street, Digby, Nova Scotia

About 157 Queen Street

The crown jewel of Queen Street. This prestigious, Victorian gem was constructed in the late 1890?s for the then manager of the Bank of Nova Scotia. Meticulously renovated and all upgrades completed to their fullest. Not ?some? wiring or ?some? plumbing, but all of the works were professionally completed including ?all? new windows, double hung for ease of access and cleaning. Stripped to the studs and insulated with Roxall providing a fire resistant, mold resistant and a sound barrier protected home. The original exterior was painstakingly restored providing strength and endurance. This three story mansion, from the moment you walk in feels warm and welcoming like a true family home. The gorgeous chef kitchen inspires even the quick snacks to feel extravagant and for those that are getting up in years, the home has been completely fitted to host main floor living with no need to climb the majestic staircase. Spacious living rooms and foyers are awesome for visiting or just relaxing with a good book. There are plenty of huge bedrooms upstairs to host the kids, grandchildren, and any number of guests. Perhaps a quiet afternoon on the veranda or an evening during a summer rain, the covered outdoor spaces are exceptionally designed for enjoyment. Additionally, the basement offers a full shop concept for the project specialists or craftsperson including massive storage potential. Digby is on the best coastline in Canada with very short warm winters and the positive climatic effects granted by the Bay of Fundy. If you like seafood, it originates here, if you like wine, this is where the first vineyards in North America originated and still exist. These classic homes cannot be duplicated, and their appeal is constantly growing but availability, especially in this condition, is very rare. (id:36535)
