Constructed on 90 acres of a former dairy farm in 2023, this large ranch-style bungalow home features a full finished basement, ICF construction, an attached double garage, and a geothermal heating system for low heating costs. In total around 3,000 square feet of living space, plus the 24’ x 30’ garage.
Entry via the covered porch leads to a spacious foyer, then into the expansive open plan living area.
The kitchen has sky-blue cabinetry, stone countertops in whitish-grey tones, an island, a separate pantry with pocket door, and south-facing windows that offer abundant natural light.
Adjacent to the kitchen are a dedicated laundry room, a mudroom with half bath, and inside entry to the double garage.
The western side of the residence includes two bedrooms—one with an ensuite—and a full bathroom.
Floor Plan
French doors in the living area open onto a large deck, delivering outdoor living space with impressive southerly views across the 90 acres of farmland.
Inside, stairs from the front foyer descend to the finished lower level, which includes two additional bedrooms, a family room, substantial storage, and roughed-in plumbing for an extra bathroom.
The property encompasses 73.2 cleared acres and approximately 14 acres of mixed woodland, with the house and barns occupying 2.8 acres. The current crop consists of corn and grass.
Formerly operated as a dairy farm, there are these buildings on the property:
- free-stall barn with locking head gates, 3 overhead doors and manual curtains.
- former calf barn that could be transformed to your liking,
- hip-roofed barn with large loft
- large shed with 2 overhead doors.
The site benefits from an estimated 1,500 feet of frontage along the Stewiacke River, located just west of Grecian Bend Pool, a location historically popular with duck hunters.
Location
The neighbourhood is rural farming country. An added bonus is that extensive river frontage on the Stewiacke River.
From the farm it’s 6 miles to Brookfield and the main highway 102.
From there it’s almost 50 miles to Halifax, so about an hour total. Truro is only a 20 minute drive.
