Augustine Cove, PEI
Custom built home (2007) on the southern shores of the Northumberland Strait, at Augustine Cove, PEI. This stunning cedar- shake (sprawling)ranch-bungalow is an absolute treasure.
November 2006 saw the breaking of ground and its foundation laid. Construction was realized over the (exceptionally) mild winter of 2007, hence the fitting name: Winter Blossom.
This fully winterized home boasts 12 ft ceilings that elevates its 1950 sq ft of living space, lending to increased spaciousness. Beaming with natural light from floor to ceiling windows, (and 3 sliding doors) that offer generous panoramic views of the seaside. As an investment opportunity: a highly sought after summer Island house (rental with potential earnings of up to $5,000 USD per week) or to use as a private estate, this property holds its value.
The interior features 4 bedrooms (one can be used as a den/
office) 2 full bathrooms: with an anti-slip (custom) pebble floor. Large kitchen with oversized island, propane gas range with stainless steel hood, side-by-side double-door refrigerator/freezer, great room with propane gas fireplace, dining room with alcove, a full utility/laundry room with sink, dishwasher, and deep freezer. Hardwood floors throughout. Plenty of storage cupboards and closets. In-ceiling stereo speakers. FLUENT Wireless Alarm System. Heating is electric base boards. Crawl space basement with sump-pump. Artesian Well. Septic-Tank.
The exterior is Maibec Cedar Shingles treated with bleaching oil finish; complete with hurricane rated windows. A Venmar Heat Exchange system with dehumidification, is installed for circulation of purified air.
A step-down 90 ft cedar boardwalk (brand new 2023) leads you from the one acre property to 185 ft of private beach-front. Walk for miles at low tide on the seabed of red sand and tidal pools, and swim in the warmest waters (north of the Carolinas) at high-tide.
The house has a covered back porch with cedar decking, overlooking the Cove's red bluffs. Surrounding perennial gardens bloom from late April through August. An 8ft deep wildflower hedge, includes precious Island Lupin that borders the perimeter of the acreage.
Watch the sunrise and sunset. See the breathtaking full moon rise beyond the point. Star gaze the constellations and wish upon the falling stars. Gather with beloved family and friends, for bonfire evenings at the Strait's shores. Wake to the lobster boats at dawn setting their traps, and hauling them filled with the catch of the day. Winter Blossom at Augustine Cove: where time slows down -just enough- to appreciate the tranquil, natural beauty and wildlife, at this truly unique and picturesque place.
Winter Blossom is situated 7 minutes (off Route 10) from Confederation Bridge, Gateway Village, and Ceretti's Grocery & Hardware: a third generation family owned business. Famous Victoria-by-the-Sea is a 10 minute red dirt road drive west; 40 minutes to Charlottetown Airport; 20 minutes to Summerside (second largest town in PEI); 2 elementary schools are within a 5km radius.
Borden-Carleton is a mix of young families and retirees, making this rural community an idyllic place to live for all ages. A welcoming small town with helpful neighbours, looking out for one another. Prince Edward Island is indeed: The Gentle Island : It's the Island Way.
