ABOUT THIS HOMETHE LISTING BROKERAGE’S OWN WORDS

Nestled along the picturesque Country Harbour River in Country Harbour Mines, this stunning riverfront home perched atop a hill offers the perfect blend of comfort, privacy, and outdoor living on nearly 5.5 acres of beautifully contoured land. Step inside to a cozy and spacious open-concept main level that features a generous sized porch entrance, thoughtfully complemented by an adjoining half bath and laundry room for everyday practicality. The welcoming kitchen has beautiful hardwood cabinets and a cozy eat in dining area that flows into the living room or the enormous back veranda designed for gathering and entertaining. A large dining area provides plenty of room for family meals while a versatile office can easily serve as a future main-level bedroom. Upstairs, hardwood flooring flows throughout three well-sized bedrooms, including an impressive primary suite complete with an expansive walk-through closet leading into a private ensuite bath — your own peaceful retreat at the end of the day. Outdoor enthusiasts and fishing lovers will appreciate being just steps from “The Narrows,” a unique section of the Country Harbour River where freshwater at low tide transforms into brackish and salt water during high tide. Launch your kayak or canoe right from your property and enjoy the breathtaking natural surroundings. The property also includes a small barn and fenced area ideal for hobby farming, gardening, or simply enjoying the open space. An unfinished basement with its own separate entrance offers exciting potential to expand the living area or create an income-generating suite. Additional features include solar power, two heat pumps, and a cozy wood stove, combining efficiency and comfort year-round. With community amenities like the General Store, Pub, Marina, Parks and just 35 minutes from everything else, if you’ve been dreaming of waterfront country living with room to grow, explore, and unwind — this exceptional property is ready to welcome you home.
