177 York St, Lunenburg, Nova Scotia B0J 2C0

In a town known for its architectural significance and historical preservation, this house, with its projecting frontispiece, its semi-circular pediment and curved roof, is unique. Built in 1885, there are 12 foot ceilings on the main level, plank floors and a library that’s a book lovers dream. The formal dining room, generous bedrooms and original detail work make the home feel like a cosy country inn. A walkout basement is ideal for a workshop or future living space, and the double-sized lot could easily accommodate another structure. Or remain a magical garden, framed by the wonderful willow tree, bent but not broken by Hurricane Dorian in 2019. The corner of York and Hopson is at a comfortable distance to Lunenburg's summertime frenzy. Yet - if you want to join - it's easy walking to downtown restaurants, shops and the famous waterfront. Even in a UNESCO town, this property is one of a kind.
