45 Mill Cove Shore Road is one of those rare, magical places that rarely comes to market…a quiet dirt road winding along the water, offering the best of both lifestyles: a peaceful seaside retreat with an easy commute to downtown Halifax.Set well back from the road on just over an acre, this year-round home is wonderfully private, with beautiful views across Mill Cove, approximately 290 feet of waterfront, direct water access and its own small boathouse. The property is located within the Shatford Trust. Mill Cove Beach is just a three-minute walk away, with Aspotogan Ridge Golf Course across the road, Bayswater Beach 15 minutes up the shore and Hubbards, including summer evenings at the Shore Club, only five minutes away.Over the past three years, the property has seen a number of thoughtful improvements, including a brand-new septic system, high-efficiency furnace, Jøtul propane stove, walk-in shower, dishwasher, fresh interior paint and upgraded 400-amp electrical service. Installed with future possibilities in mind, the electrical capacity can support an expansion, EV chargers and potentially even a pool.The basement offers additional flexibility, with potential for a secondary or in-law suite, subject to approvals. With the ceiling tiles removed, the exposed beams create added height, or the space could be finished to suit your plans.A truly special waterfront property where everyday life feels like summer, yet the city is still close enough for an easy commute.
