The Property
A Heritage Farmhouse,
Reimagined for Modern Living
Set on just over an acre only minutes from downtown Charlottetown, this beautifully restored 1870s Island farmhouse offers a rare opportunity to embrace the best of Prince Edward Island living. Just a short walk from Mermaid Cove, with deeded access to a private beach where you can launch a kayak, paddleboard, or small boat. This is a property that invites you to slow down and enjoy life by the water.
Lovingly developed into a true homestead, the grounds feature a thriving orchard with MacIntosh and Cortland apple trees, Bartlett pears, black cherries, cultivated blackberries, strawberries, and a large organic vegetable garden. A thoughtfully designed outbuilding has housed laying hens for years, making this an ideal property for anyone dreaming of a backyard micro farm and fresh eggs each morning.
Blending timeless Island character with exceptional modern design, a stunning barn-inspired addition completed in 2022 dramatically expanded the home. Adding to the existing 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, the expansion added a light-filled four-season sunroom, an impressive dining space, and a warm, inviting living area centered around a contemporary wood stove.
