Upscale water view home in Drury Cove
The Highlands of Drury Cove is a prestigious community where 250 acres of natural hills and woodlands hug the shoreline of Drury Cove on New Brunswick’s beautiful Kennebecasis River. Set on a large corner lot with views of these amazing surroundings sits 81 Fox Point Drive.
The stone and Hardiplank exterior offers a suggestion of the quality you’ll find throughout this four-bedroom, 3200 square foot, upscale family home. Through the impressive entrance you’ll find yourself in a foyer lined with ceramic tile. Look down and admire the detailed mosaic inlay. Look up, way up to the high ceiling where an arched window brings in plenty of natural light.
At your right, through an arched and pillared entrance is a spacious and inviting dining room with a large picture window, rich cherry hardwood flooring, crown moulding and deep baseboards.
A matching arched and pillared doorway across the wide hallway leads to the formal living room. This room is beautifully bright with a large picture window on one wall and two side windows plus a transom window on another. Rich cherry hardwood lines the floor and again, you’ll find crown and baseboard mouldings. Retire to this relaxing room after a superb meal, for great conversation or to relax with a great read.
The central hallway leads to the home’s open-concept eat-in kitchen and family room. With plenty of gleaming granite, custom cabinets, and quality stainless steel appliances, this kitchen looks right out of a dream homes magazine. In addition to the breakfast bar, this kitchen offers a large, bright eating area. Sunlight streams into this space through three windows with transoms. The doorway opens onto the wrap-around backyard deck with tempered glass panels. Enjoy the beautiful water views whether you’re eating indoors or dining on the deck.
The family room boasts more large picture windows that offer up water views of the Kennebecasis River – where you’ll often see boats under full sail enjoying this New Brunswick jewel. A propane fireplace surrounded by lovely ceramic tile and woodwork is another focal point of the family room. Stay cosy on cold winter evenings. This beautiful cherry lined room also features crown moulding and deep baseboards.
On this main floor you will also find a ceramic tile lined mudroom that enters from the outside and through the garage (with oversized 9-foot doors) . There is a main floor laundry room with ceramic tile cupboards and sink and a lovely powder room with ceramic tile, toilet and pedestal sink.
The stunning water views continue upstairs. Climb the cherry hardwood staircase to the second level, and enter the gracious master suite. Windows galore let in sunshine and picture perfect views of the Kennebecasis River. Relax in the bay window seating area and admire the sights. The master suite is lined with cherry hardwood and features built-in shelving, a walk-in closet and a spa-like ensuite bath. His and hers sinks are set into shining black granite atop lovely cabinetry. The stand-up ceramic tile shower is oversized and features a glass door. Soak away any stresses in the deep tub, surrounded by ceramic tile and windows offering another spectacular view.
On this second level, with a lovely foyer, you’ll find three additional, all large bedrooms. Each room has cherry hardwood flooring, plenty of closet space and large windows. A full bathroom with ceramic tile, vanity and tub and shower completes this level.
In addition to the beautiful scenery and water views, all community residents of The Highlands of Drury Cove enjoy water access, docking facilities, a boat launch and 10 kilometres of sculpted walking trails. This fine home has easy access to a major highway, shopping centres, the University of New Brunswick, the Saint John Regional Hospital, the Cherry brook Zoo, two golf courses and the Saint John Airport.
