Overview

981 Shore Drive, Bedford, NS (MLS® 202610945): Waterfront properties on the Bedford Basin rarely change hands, and those that combine protected deep-water anchorage, over 100 feet of ocean frontage with a private dock, and 4300 sq ft of quality craftsmanship are rarer still. The entry sets the tone for everything that follows - detailed millwork, hardwood floors, and crown molding run throughout the home. The living and dining room frame the entry, providing intimate spaces for formal gatherings. Anchored by a propane fireplace, the expansive great room opens to a wall of windows over Bedford Basin and flows seamlessly into the adjoining kitchen and bay-windowed breakfast nook. From a morning coffee on the back deck to a family breakfast in the bay window, an afternoon on the water, and an evening by the fire, the Basin is the constant backdrop to daily life. A dedicated laundry room, mudroom, main-floor powder room, and built-in double garage complete the practical layout of the main level without compromising its character. Upstairs, the primary suite captures the water from three exposures, with a generous walk-in closet and spa-like ensuite. Three additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the upper level. Built for nights in, the lower level features a dedicated theatre room and a billiards-ready rec room. A full bedroom and bath, a wet-bar rough-in, and the large above-grade windows and a walk-out offer the potential for a self-contained in-law suite in the future. Along with the expansive deck off the kitchen, two covered decks step down to a manicured lawn that meets the water's edge. A perfect place to watch the steady parade of Bedford Basin Yacht Club sails. This exceptional property is within walking distance of top-rated schools, scenic trails, shops, restaurants, the Bedford Basin Yacht Club, DeWolf Park, and Bedford Lions Pool. Easy access to Downtown Halifax and Dartmouth makes this family-friendly neighbourhood truly unbeatable.
