27 Shipyard Road

Keenly perched on the Kennebecasis River, this fully renovated waterfront home captures postcard-worthy Rothesay views, with an ever-changing backdrop of Ministers Face and Long Island and a grass-lined path gently leading to the water. Every living space and bedroom has a water view, making the river feel like a natural part of the home. This is a different kind of waterfront living, peaceful and remarkably quiet, with no trains or traffic, yet far from isolated. Friendly neighbours surround you, and a public boat launch sits right beside the property - a perfect spot for little ones to ease their way into the water rather than jumping off the dock. And dont be surprised when friends pull-up by boat for a visit. Here, the water isnt simply something you look at; it becomes part of your everyday social and active life. Thoughtfully renovated with comfort and efficiency in mind, the home features a geothermal heat pump and two wood stoves for back-up heat. The completely renovated, professionally designed kitchen is a stand-out, with walnut cabinetry, dovetail drawers and a gorgeous 10 foot island topped with botanic wave quartzite from Italy - a highly durable stone. Every detail has been considered, leaving you with a beautifully finished 2+3 bedroom, 3-bathroom home that is truly ready to enjoy. And, the river is just as enjoyable when the boats are put away. In the winter, it becomes a natural pathway for walking to the town highlights, cross-country skiing, ice fishing, skating and exploring Long Island. In the summer, enjoy mornings on the dock and afternoons on the water, with sailboats cruising past against the dramatic rock backdrop of Ministers Face - a special sight not every Rothesay waterfront home gets to experience. Wide river views, a walkable neighbourhood filled with charming homes, the Fairvale Elementary School zone and great neighbours - this is a home that embraces every season, whether the days are long or short, the sun high or low.
