Property Description
Welcome to the Abraham Lent House, a beautiful estate that blends magical four-season Nova Scotia vistas with New England Colonial charm. Set on 4.3 acres in the quaint community of Tusket, this extraordinary point-of-land property boasts 780 feet of water frontage, showcasing the incredible 15-foot tides of the Tusket River. Here, stunning sunsets give way to some of the best stargazing in North America. The home radiates timeless character, with a majestic lion door knocker on a double Dutch door, crown moldings, chair rails, wood floors, brass doorknobs, cozy brick fireplaces, wood beams, a boat porthole in the ceiling, and a stained glass door. The original entrance hall with staircase, elegant dining and living rooms with fireplaces, and a kitchen with wood stove set the stage for warmth and tradition. Three bedrooms, all with magnificent water views, two full washrooms, and an expansive sunroom complete the living spaces. Above the kitchen, an open loft awaits your dream studio or additional bedroom. Modern updates include new electrical with a 200-amp panel, full ducted heat pump, and a thoughtfully renovated kitchen. Outdoors, various farm outbuildings, one already wired, offer potential for projects or ventures. Low-maintenance perennial gardens, private patios, stone paths, fruit trees, and centuries-old oaks enrich the setting. Just 12 minutes from Yarmouth, yet with local amenities nearby, this property offers the lifestyle you’ve always imagined—seals in the river, eagles overhead, and endless coastal beauty. All viewings by appointment only.
