About This Home
As of August 2020Situated on coveted Bell Island, this Historic 1867 home was completely renovated in 2018. The house retains it's old world charm with reclaimed wood beams, a stone fireplace and barn doors throughout, while offering all the high end, modern amenities and conveniences that the discerning tenant desires. Any chef will love the kitchen which boasts a Wolf, six burner range, oversized Subzero fridge/freezer with two additional refrigerator drawers and a wine fridge. The kitchen also features a built in seltzer and cold water dispenser. The front porch bed swing is the perfect place to unwind while watching neighbors walk by. For those who desire more privacy, you can enjoy views of the Wilson Cove Harbor on the back deck. The deck has an outdoor kitchen with two Green Eggs, a gas fire pit, and an outdoor TV. Most of the house and outdoor space is on the Sonos system, providing great sounding tunes anywhere you are. Ring doorbells and cameras, thermostats, Lutron lighting and apple TV are some of the modern, smart home technologies that this home offers. First floor bedroom suite can be used as bedroom, exercise room or office. The private association of Bell Island has two beaches and three parks for you to enjoy. In addition to Bell Island's offerings, you can have access to Bayley Beach, tennis courts and paddle Courts, though you might not want to leave your oasis. Launch paddle boards, swim or fish off of your private beach and dock throughout much of the year.
