1227 Oakland Rd, Oakland, Nova Scotia B0J 2E0

This light filled, simple home is located in the quiet rural enclave of Oakland - a most desirable community on Nova Scotia's beautiful South Shore. Located a short bicycle ride from the famed Mahone Bay by the sea, this property allows for an enviable lifestyle at an entry level price. Oakland Road hugs the eastern shore of a bay it shares with Mahone Bay and largely has a southwest exposure, gently meandering along the coast against the ocean. This two bedroom home is compact, bright and cheerful with many recent improvements including: a refurbished family bath, new flooring throughout, two ductless heat-pumps (one on the main level and another at the lower), recently installed wood-stove, and new basement stairs. The home has a high and dry basement of approximately 850 square feet which would be prime for future development - ideal for a growing family or an individual requiring more living space. The house itself has a good set-back on a quiet, paved country road and the level lot is ideal for gardening. At present there are four raised beds, a herb and butterfly garden, and blueberry, raspberry, blackberry, currant, quince and gooseberry bushes. The amenities of Mahone Bay include: a grocery store, bank, post office, medical and dental clinics, liquor store, community centre, public wharf, places of worship, shops, and numerous, casual-dining venues. With good proximity to the coastal highway at Exit 10, this property is located one hour from Halifax or Stanfield International Airport. For the cyclist or hiker Oakland offers access to two popular cycling and hiking trails: the "Dynamite Trail" and "Rails to Trails". A quiet lifestyle awaits you at the heart of a vibrant rural community - at an affordable price - minutes from Mahone Bay and just fifteen minutes drive to Bridgewater or the UNESCO protected town of Lunenburg.
