Property Description

If you were looking to buy what many have thought of as the prettiest house in Mahone Bay - it is finally for sale. From the street you see cut granite foundation walls set amidst a large double lot framing a 2 1/2 story architectural masterpiece . The expressive exuberance and inventiveness of it's industrial-age builders is reflective of the distinctive period architectural elements, the softwood floors, the plaster moldings and the intact ceiling medallions.Substantial room sizes, a back staircase, and exquisite wood trim and doors extending right up to the third floor .The charming attic windows offer a sentinel out over the rooftops of the neighbouring houses looking toward the harbour. Add in triple front bays, Palladian porch and attic windows all set in a massive three story front bay. It is all here. This gem was built for master mariner Capt James Smeltzer in the late 1880's and was then; and is now; a recognized Mahone Bay landmark home
