LOCATION For more than 150 years Chester has been a special enclave with rich traditions and lifestyle. Families come to enjoy the beautiful village with its sleepy streets, classic cottages, oceanside golf course and world renowned sailing grounds. The village boasts two harbours, many galleries, shops, eateries and an excellent theater. This community is committed to residential life rather than the bustle of a typical tourist destination. Folks know each other here & you're invited to sail in & drop anchor.
THE PROPERTY The St. George Estate, on the exclusive Chester Peninsula, has been cherished by the same family for 60 years. This traditional "Cottage" (really a house) is what summer is all about in this idyllic seaside village. Watch the yacht club activity from your wharf, stroll into the village past the Lido for morning coffee at the bakery or meet friends for golf on the oceanfront course across the way. The property includes 2 pre-Confederation water lots & 217' of oceanfront with wharf. Landscaped with an in-ground pool, lots of trees, perennial beds, & privacy. The rooms are all spacious, bright & full of character. It looks like a page from a classic country living magazine. The baths and kitchen [includes a Butler's Pantry] could be upgraded & the allotted spaces are all generous. The main stairway is lovely & reflects the age of the house. There is, of course, the mandatory backstairs to the maid's quarters. Finishing touches include hardwood floors, two fireplaces, fine moldings & doors with porcelain doorknobs and large six over six windows. The house sits high with views of the Front Harbour, islands & sea beyond. There are 3 lots with this estate.
