Amherst House | Modernized Waterfront Farmhouse with Wood Stove on 9 Acres of Land

4 Bedroom House in Amherst, Pugwash

This beautiful four-season farmhouse on 9 acres of land has been completely updated and modernized to comfortably house multiple families. In the winter, enjoy cozying up by the wood stove after skiing at Wentworth Ski hill, only 25 minutes away. In the summer, Shell Cottage is a fantastic home base to explore the area and simply sit and watch the ever-changing tides and shorebirds. Only minutes away you can explore beaches, waterfalls, golf courses and Wentworth Mountain Bike Park.
Surrounded by windows on all sides, this bright open-concept farmhouse is the ideal space to host a getaway or family vacation. The sun streams in through windows that offer views of forests, fields, tidal shores, eagles and herons.
Rustic yet modern, the main level houses a great-room with eat-in kitchen and large living room. The dining room has expansive views to the shoreline and pasture. In the summer, a sun porch is available off of the dining room. With gorgeous views and ample seating, this room is prefect for warm weather relaxing. Additionally, the main level has a powder room, laundry closet and a wide entrance hall with heaps of room for storage. Exposed ceiling joists compliment the bright day-lit spaces.
In the living room, you will find an eclectic record collection, an abundance of board games and puzzles, and a library of books for all ages. If you are serious about your games and puzzles, you will be happy to find a dedicated table for just this purpose. The large wood stove can easily heat the entire house (even in the depths of winter), and the generously sized couch and chairs provides ample space to cozy up.
The kitchen is well stocked with all things from hand mixers, food processor, kettle, coffee maker, toaster, and dishwasher. Thanks to the gorgeous scenery, there is no better place to cook a feast - and this kitchen is stocked to do so. The dining room with sliding door onto the sun porch and waterfront deck can sit between 4 and 12 people easily. The kitchen provides ample dishes to host multiple families.
A large deck multi level deck and sun porch overlooks nine acres of pasture, gently sloping into the Northumberland Strait: a perfect western vantage point to enjoy dramatic summer sunsets. Shell Cottage's shoreline attracts a rotating cast of migratory birds, blue herons, ducks, vultures, ospreys and eagles.
There is a laundry/broom closet off of the dining room with a small-scale stacked washer/dryer.
All bedrooms and the full bath are upstairs. The four bedrooms (double/single bunk, queen, queen and double, double/single bunk) have all new sheets and plenty of wool blankets and quilts. There are bath towels and beach towels available for each guest. All rooms have dressers and hooks for storage.
