This traditional mid-century colonial home at 165 Broad Street, built for Lunenburg Sea Captain Robert Allen in 1949, sits high on the hill above the harbour providing a great view of ship traffic below, including the iconic Bluenose II. The wide, level double lot is fronted by a stone wall, supported by a platform of land rather than being wedged on a slope. An extensive split-level deck just right for barbeques overlooks an expansive level lawn perfect for croquet matches and summer gatherings. Or just lounging on your Adirondacks under a shade tree with a cool drink. Designed by Halifax architect E.I Brigley, MRAIC (Member of the Royal Architectural Institute) a designation of recognized professionalism, he used the finest building materials and workmanship, including brass hardware, large double windows, hardwood flooring throughout and cedar shingles for the exterior. A unique radiant hot water heating system of copper piping throughout the walls of the house ensures even warmth without radiators. The home is filled with bright natural light from many windows. There is an eat-in kitchen with a dining nook in a bay window looking over the back yard and deck. The den has a built-in bookcase cabinet and wood-burning fireplace. The living room with its 180-degree window also has an excellent view of the historic Lunenburg academy. The dining room, connected to the living room by an archway, has a built-in China cabinet and plate rails. Theres lots of storage closets and cupboards throughout the house and a laundry chute from the second floor to the laundry room off the kitchen; three large bedrooms with closets and the primary bedroom has two closets. The primary bedroom and west facing bedrooms have harbour views. The office/fourth bedroom has a door that opens to the garage rooftop with its open-air view of the harbour. The house is fully restored in shipshape condition with a spacious and dry full, unfinished basement of poured concrete. (id:48164)
