This extensively renovated home has evolved into a poetic combination of volumetric shapes. The result is subtle drama, as bold forms and whimsical spaces draw you in and around this charismatic home.

The building is sited on a particularly rich lot at the end of a cul-de-sac in an established area of Wolfville. The ‘near acre’ is bounded on the north by a brook and westward is a grove of woods and  fields affording a partial vista of Minas Basin and Blomidon. Acadia University , the Millennium Trail,  and downtown Wolfville are all within walking distance.

The Nuts and Bolts...

The 1 1/2 storey home is approximately 24' x 30' with a roof covered rear porch and a generous front deck .

There are two large bedrooms and a lavish bathroom upstairs capped with a cathedral ceiling, dormer, and skylight. On the main floor are the three main common areas for cooking, dining, and general living space anchored on one end with a wood stove. The lower floor has access to grade and can be finished to accommodate a variety of uses.

The main floor spaces are defined by changes in texture, colour, and lighting treatments, but are barrier free. Complimenting these spaces are several closets, a 3 piece bathroom, and a bedroom / office. 

The main level and upper bathroom are heated with a hydronic radiant  floor system.
