8142 Highway 3, Tusket, Nova Scotia B0W 3M0

Historic property in the heart of Tusket has been a former residence of Rev. Charles Knowles. Located on the top of a hill overlooking where the Tusket River meets the ocean. This large home with a lot of original character offers 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, studio with separate entrance and a loft suite over the garage. The house has recently undergone renovations including some new windows, front door, floorings, paint, new oil tank, and heat pumps. The loft suite has all new windows, new wood stove, new hot water heater, and the roof has been re-shingled. It would make a perfect home for a large family, multi-generational home or just enjoy all the extra space. The property consists of two PID's totaling of over 11 acres. The land is mostly wooded and there are beautiful mature trees around the house. Next to the garage is a workshop/stable - potential for a hobby farm. This property is conveniently located just around 10 min. drive to the Town of Yarmouth with all important amenities. Call for viewing.
