This lovely 2 bedroom, 1 bath, 980sf rancher is centrally located within walking distance to the village core and ferry. With the house set on the back of the property, the mostly wooded lot provides privacy from the road and neighbours, with plenty of parking both in front and behind the house.

The open plan living/dining/kitchen make it the perfect home for gatherings of friends and family. The woodstove easily heats the whole house, but you have the option of the heat pump, too. While the front deck gets lots of sun in the summer, the trees keep the house cool even on the hottest days. In addition to ample storage (lots of closets!), the laundry room (washer/dryer) includes pantry shelves, and because it’s unheated, it’s great for root vegetable storage all winter.

The real jewel of the property is the 100sf fully insulated, wired, and heated cabin. Big windows and a skylight make it bright and charming, perfect for writing, an artist studio, or an additional guest room. Built in 2009, it has 2×6 construction and a beautiful reclaimed wood floor, plus its own deck.

The dry crawl space under the house can also be used for storage as it’s quite warm due to the woodstove above it, and there is a 100sf storage shed, perfect for bikes, tools, etc., along with a woodshed able to hold 2+ cords of fire wood.

While the lot is wooded, there is a sunny, grassy area in front that could be fenced in for a small garden. The owner has previously had a successful deck garden, growing vegetables and flowers in pots.
