About this property

Tucked away on a quiet road just 5 minutes from Picton, this custom-built, chalet-style home is a rare invitation to live immersed in nature without sacrificing convenience. Set above the shores of Picton Bay on over 1.5 acres and enveloped in mature trees, the property offers a secluded setting where the seasons take center stage.

Above, the loft provides extra space for recreation, a reading nook, or home office. The main floor is completed by a large primary suite, offering a comfortable retreat. The walk-out lower level adds valuable versatility, with two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom. Outside, expansive decking at both the front & rear of the home seamlessly blends indoor & outdoor living. Gradual stairs lead down to a deck and bunkie at the water's edge - an idyllic spot for morning coffee, quiet afternoons, or sunset gatherings. A two-car garage offers room for vehicles, equipment, and hobbies, while the paved circular drive adds convenience. Just minutes from everyday amenities and within easy reach of the beaches, wineries, galleries and culinary experiences that define Prince Edward County.
