703 Saint George Street — Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia

Own a landmark on one of the oldest and most historic streets in Canada. This Queen Anne Revival sits on a double-frontage lot on Saint George Street, with circular driveway access and the kind of architectural presence you just can't build today. Inside: generous principal rooms, original millwork and detailing, and a four-bedroom, five-bathroom layout formerly operated as a successful B&B. Blown-in insulation throughout, spray-foamed foundation, ductless heat pumps, and a new Osburn fireplace insert mean the bones are solid and the operating costs are sane. The third floor was previously the innkeeper's quarters and is full of opportunity: it could make a perfect in-law suite, separate rental unit, studio, or a natural Airbnb listing given the home's hospitality history and Annapolis Royal's standing as a destination. The lot size also creates real flexibility for a future secondary dwelling. The location does the rest. Saint George Street has been in use since 1686, and Annapolis Royal is full of historic charm. The Historic Gardens, King's Theatre, Harvest Moon Trail, and some of the finest restaurants in Atlantic Canada. The town is surprisingly walkable and a wonderful place to live. (id:63357)
