Located in Englishtown and just steps from the water, this one-of-a-kind property offers captivating views from every angle. From the side deck you can enjoy water glimpses, while sweeping vistas from the upstairs bedroom windows make this home truly special. Once an active church, the building has been thoughtfully reimagined into a stunning residence, seamlessly blending historic charm with modern comforts. The main floor showcases the original hardwood flooring and soaring ceilings, with tall windows that flood the open living area in natural light. Painted pine walls and ceilings create a warm, welcoming ambiance, while the former altar has been transformed into an inviting sitting and entertaining space. Off the main living area, the kitchen features efficient design and open shelving. Upstairs, the primary bedroom enjoys expansive water views through the large polytech tilt & turn windows. The spa-like bathroom offers a deep soaker tub and stand-up shower, while an adjoining versatile room provides the option for an office, reading nook, or walk-in closet. The home is comfortably heated with electric baseboards, heat pumps on both levels, and a cozy pellet stove in the living room. The unfinished basement, with concrete floors and a walkout, houses the utilities and provides ample potential for future development. Since 2000, the property has seen extensive upgrades including a full re-wire and 200-amp service, upper-level bedroom construction, new windows throughout, multiple heating systems, updated siding, blown insulation throughout and a newly re-shingled roof in 2024. A truly unique property offering character, history, and modern living, all within a convenient location: only 20 minutes to Baddeck, 30 minutes to North Sydney, and just 7 minutes to Highway 105. You will not want to miss your chance at this unique and beautiful offering. (id:63267)
