Sitting on a corner lot, on world renown Brier Island, this Gothic Revival home built in 1852 is said to be one of the most historic homes in Digby County. No thought left spared, the eye-catching details span the entire home. Built by a Master Craftsman, this home exudes character and charm. Original tin ceilings, a winding staircase, crown moldings and the 12 & 15-pane windows are just a few of the dramatic features. This home has been brought back to life by the current owner in the recent years. Many upgrades include: Complete rewiring of electrical, all new plumbing, replaced floor joists, insulated, shingled roof (2019), added half bath on main level, just to name a few. Stroll through the manicured grounds, housing perennial flower beds, flowering shrubs, and your very own greenhouse. Explore the endless possibilities with the 18' x 26' barn/shed + loft.
