Turn from Dover road onto Whiteway lane, and follow gravelled/dirt lane for almost a kilometer. INSERT: If you've been saying " I'd love to just get away from it all!" then this just might be the perfect home for you. As the listing agent and joint property owner I am proud to present this very unique and picturesque opportunity. Located in rural eastern P.E.I. on 17 acres of mixed woods it borders on the largest fresh water body of water in P.E.I called Maclure's Pond(created by the damming of Murray River). Seven years ago we commenced the task of a complete renovation/winterization of this cottage,the lane into the property and the clearing of the walking trails.The decision to go 100% off-grid was a practical one as the private lane down to this property is almost a kilometer long. We had installed a hands-free state-of-the-art solar electric system which has since been upgraded(double the panels, double the battery storage(Jan/2023)).We rarely (Nov/Dec short dark days) have to turn on backup generator to supplement electricity needs. Surrounding the house you will find hundreds of carefully chosen plants and shrubs that enhance the natural beauty of the waterfront. What the pictures don't portray well is the menagerie of wildlife whose songs you will awaken to, the greeting of warmth from the wood stove on a chilly day,the cool breezes from the water wafting through the house on a hot day, or the sound the geese plopping onto the pond for a night of rest on their way north or south. As the former owners we would be happy to assist the buyers in any way with respect to instruction on wood stove use,wood gathering,snow blowing etc. The internet service is excellent with 5G available from Xplornet. Finally to answer the question of why we are selling. We are in our seventies and plan on travelling extensively as our family is spread out from here to Australia(new grand-child!).We have throughly enjoyed our home and property and I'm confident that any buyer who appreciates nature and privacy will feel the same.
