235 North Side Rd, Lunenburg, NS, B0J 2W0    

The famous Sea Captains of Lunenburg County knew where and how to build `those big old` houses. Captain Backman sited his home on protected cove waters honouring south west exposure to the sea. Three levels of unparalleled workmanship showcasing the availability and love of fine wood. Key features: unique and practical built-ins, stencilled plank floors, wood inserts on stairs landing, round medallion mouldings, 6 panel doors, functional pocket doors in living/dining and wainscotting. Upgrades include drilled well, insulation, water treatment, new windows, plumbing, electrical, chef`s kitchen, exterior paint and roof. There is a main floor bedroom and the third level could be a separate apartment with modifications. A boathouse closer to the water is in original condition and with exterior work would be fantastic studio or `barn`. Lots of opportunity for entrepreneurial ideas with a slower taste of life in the community of Riverport, 90 mins from Halifax or 30 from Bridgewater.
