Description
Welcome to "Bonnie Doon" in the historic fishing village of Port Lorne - Bay of Fundy. This century home was built in the 1890’s and given the name Bonnie Doon - Gaelic for "Beautiful Place". Public beach access is just steps away from your front door where you will be able to enjoy many beachcombing adventures on this stretch of flat rocked, walkable stone beach and enjoy stunning Bay of Fundy sunsets from the front porch. Get to know the neighbours and take advantage of fishing community access to fresh fish & lobster right off the boats at Port Lorne Warf! This 3 bedroom, 1 bath home sits on 1.5 acres that was previously used for raising livestock. 2 sheds, a wired garage that houses a workshop, plus a 24 x 16 wired 2-storey barn that would be the perfect place to keep goats or chickens. Property is partially fenced and cleared, so it wouldn’t take much to turn this back into a thriving hobby farm. Over the years, the family living here took advantage of the fertile soil behind the house to plant high-producing vegetable gardens. Port Lorne is a popular tourist destination with very few AirBnB properties available. There's enough road frontage here for future subdivision potential, making this a solid investment. The roof is 7 years old, oil furnace is 6 years old. The electrical panel has fuses, but works well and shouldn't cause any problems with insurability. A modern generator panel was added a few years ago. The house needs some TLC – it's a “handyman special” and the price reflects this. This a great opportunity for a first time homebuyer to stop paying rent and start building equity! The dug well has been well maintained and provides good quality water (from crystal clear mountain spring). A June 2025 water test shows zero bacteria count. Septic is approx. 38 years and works well - never an issues, was pumped in April 2023 and the house has been vacant pretty much ever since. Appliances are “as is” but are currently in good working order. Move right in!Show Description
