About This Property

Along Newfoundland's enchanting community of Bay Bulls just 40kms from St. John's vibrant heartbeat nestled like a pearl telling stories of generations past stands this turn-of-the-century home w/ exciting history as much as its alluring features. In 1912 'When Irish Eyes Are Smiling' first captured hearts worldwide, someone planted a delicate ash sapling on this very ground. Today, that tree stands as a towering testament to resiliency & connection, sheltering one Canada's most extraordinary opportunities for a dream home, Airbnb, or business. This magical property unfolds across massive grounds w/ over 300' street frontage, sunlight streaming through many private garden retreats alongside a significant river running behind creating an intimate valley sanctuary where dozens of unique species of mature beautiful trees & shrubs thrive. Ask for Garden Feature Sheet! Mixed zoning permissions & an additional 340SF of storefront business-ready space w/ separate access offers endless income possibilities! Land potentially subdividable, an adjacent lot has been surveyed & may confer equity! Inside 9' ceilings, hardwoods, propane cooktop & WETT certified woodstove are coveted lux-style features. Ascend to the primary bedroom's crown jewel - a magnificent 14x14 conservatory-style attic space where exposed brick & skylight windows creates a celestial stress-busting retreat among the treetops - what would you do here? This property has legendary in its very soul. In 1692, HMS Sapphire met her fate in these waters during the Anglo-French conflicts, becoming the sole vessel lost in North American battles of that era, a few hundred feet away. Today it smiles w/ authentic community spirit & all the world sure seems OK here! Comfortable efficient peaceful living on incredibly beautiful grounds, wow-factor character appeal & features will steal your heart. A must-see opportunity! (id:63357)
