$1,450,000

This 150 year old country church represents a masterpiece of historic preservation & modern ingenuity. For nearly a century and a half the village of Hadleyville in Guysborough congregated beneath the vaulted ceilings of Holy Trinity Church. In 2002 the church was carefully dismantled, moved, and thoughtfully reconstructed as an elegant residence on 6.13 private acres at the tip of beautiful Kingsburg Beach in Lunenburg County. In its new home nearly 400km away, the historic structure continues to provide a marvellous gathering space. A visual delight inside & out, abundant with architectural detail & quality finishes, the home is perfectly positioned to enjoy beach & ocean views with tall diamond-paned gothic windows infusing the interior w/ natural light. For culinary aficionados, the Kitchen appropriately occupies the Alter, while Dining & Living areas share an open plan in the Nave under awe inspiring hand-hewn beams & towering cathedral ceilings. The main level Bedroom suite features great views, full ensuite & walk-in closet. The Choir Loft/gallery with its own full bath provides a non-traditional sleeping space for overnight guests. And, for those who want to slumber a little closer to the stars, the Bell Tower Bedroom serves as a heavenly space offering panoramic views of Kingsburg village, its sandy beach and the dramatic cliffs of Rose Head. Outside, hardy perennial gardens integrate with natural plantings and expansive decking links the main house with the charming 3-season guest Bunkie with woodstove and sleeping loft with ocean view balcony. Stroll from the deck down to your 245? of slate ledge shore frontage. Or take a walk on one of the woodland trails that wind through your 6+ acres of unadulterated nature. As you explore the trails you?ll come upon the secret Gardener?s Cottage -- a rustic hideaway tucked back into the woods with protected raised beds for your annuals & vegetables. Without exaggeration, this is simply a special property. (id:54304)
