With mature trees, the steady sound of water moving past the bank, and a deep pool swirling just out front, it feels like you're deep in the woods, far from it all. And yet, Sussex and everyday essentials are just 20 mins away, and outdoor adventure is all around you. Mornings start a little slower here, coffee in hand with the river in view, and days unfold outdoors, whether exploring the property, observing wildlife, or heading out to nearby ATV and snowmobile trails offering 4 seasons of enjoyment. Inside, exposed logs and beams, cathedral ceilings, and a wood-burning stove create a space that feels grounded and inviting, with the fire adding ambiance and warmth. The layout offers a main floor primary, a loft bedroom or office overlooking the river, 1.5 bathrooms over approx 1,400 sqft, plus a recently finished bunkie in the outbuilding for a third sleeping space. Two ductless heat pumps handle year-round comfort efficiently. Updates include electrical, insulation, plumbing, exterior doors, and a metal roof. Outside, a screened gazebo, circular driveway, and that same outbuilding with a dedicated workshop or storage space round out the property. Full-time home, getaway, or turnkey Airbnb, this property works on all fronts. Close to several popular campgrounds, 25 mins to Fundy National Park, 25 mins to Poley Mountain, 45 mins to Moncton, 55 mins to Saint John. (id:27476)
