15735 Central Avenue
Inverness, Nova Scotia B0E1N0

The Grant house has the very best ?iconic? Inverness view - meaning of the harbour, wharf, boats, Cabot Links, the beach dunes, the ocean, and of course sunsets over the sea, as this property is on the ocean side of Central Avenue. This panorama in Inverness has no compare. No photo can do justice to the 180 degree breadth of view standing in front of the house. The older home, in excellent condition, is unusual for its time in being built as a duplex, each side having kitchen, dining and living rooms on the main floor with bath and three bedrooms upstairs. The parcel is huge for a town lot: 0.7 acres, It is impossible to overstate how unique this property is. The 30,000 sq ft parcel is bordered in front by Crown land and the Trail. Below that is the 5th green and 6th tee boxes of the Links course. Recent clearing of some trees has widened the view even further. Another major feature is that the house is sheltered from the road - both sight and sound - by a dense screen of large evergreen trees, spruce and pine, between house and road. . This heritage building has many classic details like the three bay windows, the patterned hardwood floors on the main floor (oak one side, maple the other), the handsome wood trim. There are 4 dormers, including a dormer within a dormer! The front porch has two doors each leading to one of the kitchens. The back porch, part open, part closed in with large windows, is the perfect introduction to the amazing view, which can be almost shocking to see for the first time. The house was put on a full concrete basement - with walk-out access - around 1970, and has had various other upgrades since then. Some windows have been replaced with Polytech ones. FHA burner, FibreOp, town sewer/water. Needless to say, one can walk to all the amenities in town from here. Or to the beach. Or take the Trail on your doorstep and walk out of town! (230811619)
