177 York Street, Lunenburg, NS (MLS® 202520892): In a town known for its architectural significance and historical preservation, this house, with its projecting frontispiece, its semi-circular pediment and curved roof, is unique. Built in 1885, there are 10 foot ceilings on the main level, plank floors and a library that’s a book lovers dream. The formal dining room, generous bedrooms and original detail work make the home feel like a cosy country inn. A walkout basement is ideal for a workshop or future living space, and the double-sized lot could easily accommodate another structure. Or remain a magical garden, framed by the wonderful willow tree, bent but not broken by Hurricane Dorian in 2019. The corner of York and Hopson is at a comfortable distance to Lunenburg's summertime frenzy. Yet - if you want to join - it's easy walking to downtown restaurants, shops and the famous waterfront. Even in a UNESCO town, this property is one of a kind.

Directions

From downtown Lunenburg, take Lincoln St heading east. Turn left on Hopson St and continue along until the intersection of York St and the property is on the corner with a sign.
