Description

Shakespeare House - A Charming Salt Box Home with Guest House, Water Views & Storybook Setting. Nestled on a beautifully landscaped corner lot next to a serene park, this historic home and darling guest house by the sea offer the perfect blend of timeless character and modern upgrades. The main home and income-producing guest house offer picturesque water views of the world’s third deepest natural harbour within easy walking distance of the Yacht Club, Osprey Art Centre, popular restaurants, shops, and attractions. The 1436 sq ft main house has been completely restored (1984) and renovated (2021-25), and retains many original features. It features 3 heat pump heads, a spacious renovated kitchen, a cozy breakfast dining nook with an impressive hand-hewn granite fireplace, a convenient powder room, a formal dining room, and a welcoming living room with custom built-ins showcasing the other side of the granite fireplace. Either of the main floor’s 2 principal rooms could easily be converted into a 3rd bedroom. Upstairs, you’ll find two generously sized bedrooms, a recently renovated bathroom (2025) with a classic clawfoot tub, and abundant storage throughout (including a separate storage room). The primary bedroom features a granite fireplace and sitting area, adding to the cozy ambiance. The basement with laundry (new propane dryer, 2024) offers additional storage space. The 430 sq ft, four season guest house with bathroom, kitchen, balcony, heat pump, separate power meter, and generator panel was custom-designed and built in 2024. Operating as a successful 5-star Airbnb business, the guest house is perfect for visitors, extended family, or rental income to help pay down your mortgage. The U-shaped driveway, garden shed, fence, and patio add to the appeal. There have been many thoughtful upgrades over the years that respect the home’s heritage. Enjoy daily walks along the picturesque historic waterfront. A virtual tour, video, and more information is available.
