Rare opportunity for pristine lakefront living on one of the best lots on beautiful Paper Mill Lake - only 11 minutes from Halifax peninsula and walking distance to the Bedford oceanfront boardwalk and proposed new high-speed ferry to downtown Halifax. Luxurious home and serene cottage getaway all in one - mature trees and year-round views with 70 feet of private frontage perfect for swimming, paddling, fishing, and skating. The main floor features an open concept kitchen and dining area with quartz counters, stainless Thermador appliances, imported Portuguese backsplash tile, a reading nook, and stunning lake views. The formal living room includes a propane fireplace and French doors for optional privacy while the family room features stylish built-in storage. Upstairs boasts 4 bedrooms (3 with lake views), a main bathroom, and a spa-like ensuite with double vanity, air jet tub, and custom shower with body jets. The walk-out basement features a generous rec room, games room, 2 more bedrooms, and a full bath. Entertain family and friends on the two-tiered deck overlooking the lake, or enjoy the lake-front hot tub year-round after a long day. The fenced lawn with cedar swing, gardens, and shed completes the perfect backyard. This home also features heat pumps for climate control, a double garage, and sits on a quiet cul-de-sac in the highly sought-after Bedford school district. Paper Mill Lake is motor-free and quiet with several islands to explore and ideally located near Bedford Highway and Highway 102 and only 19 minutes to the airport.
