Water view family home in Hastings Cove



With a school in the neighbourhood, a community beach and boat launch, a winter ice rink, plus plenty of neighbourhood activities, Hastings Cove is a community perfectly suited to family living. And 9 Valley Drive is a home perfectly suited for your family.

This beautifully maintained and renovated four-bedroom home is set on a large, private corner lot that overlooks the clean waters of the Kennebecasis River. The grounds are landscaped with easy care shrubs, bushes and perennials. A brick walkway lined with lamp posts leads to the backyard where mature trees provide privacy, allowing you to relax on the spacious deck. Connected to the deck is a covered veranda that wraps around the house. This is the perfect spot to sit back and enjoy sunsets over the river.

A stone walkway leads to the home’s attractive front entrance. Come inside and take a tour. Off the gracious foyer with ceramic tile, step through double French doors to the home’s large and bright formal dining room. Oh the dinner parties you’ll throw in this elegant space! Topped with crown moulding and featuring hardwood floor, this dining room has large windows, including a walkout bay window with a water view. It is newly painted and ready for your house-warming party.

Down the hallway find another bright and spacious room. The living room features a walkout bay window with doors to the veranda. There’s a new propane fireplace with ceramic tile hearth and hardwood mantle. This room has hardwood floor, crown moulding and is newly painted and waiting to be enjoyed.

Adjacent to the living room is the home’s new eat-in kitchen with loads of cream-coloured custom cabinetry, gleaming granite counter tops, ceramic tile backsplash, a breakfast bar, and a large eating area with deck access. The chef in the family will love working in this bright, well-designed kitchen.

A French door leads from the kitchen to a hallway where you’ll find even more custom cabinetry, space for an additional fridge, and both the main floor laundry room and two-piece powder room with a pedestal sink. This hallway connects to a huge mudroom with built-in shelves and hooks (a must for family living!). The mudroom exits to both the outside and the 2-car finished garage.

Also on the main floor, find a large den or home office. This room has hardwood flooring, pot lights, a big picture window to provide plenty of natural light and two-walls of gorgeous custom cherry cabinets, book shelves and desks.

Up the extra-wide hardwood stairs to the second floor find a lovely foyer and four bedrooms. The master bedroom has hardwood flooring, a walk-in closet, many windows, and a spectacular view of the Kennebecasis River. This large bedroom has a three-piece ensuite bath with ceramic tile flooring, an acrylic tub and shower with glass doors, his and hers sinks and additional cabinets for linens.

Three more very nice sized bedrooms are found on this floor. All have large double closets and one has a water view. Handy to these bedrooms is a big three-piece bathroom with ceramic tile and an acrylic tub and shower.

The basement of this home doesn’t feel like a basement at all. Fully finished, this daylight basement has a large recreation room with built-in cabinets, shelves and media centre. There’s a propane fireplace to add warmth and ambiance. You’ll find plenty of space for exercise equipment and room to play video games such as Wii. The basement has a three-piece bathroom with stand-up shower and pedestal sink. There are two storage rooms, plus a closet and under-stair storage. There is also garage access from the basement.

Unlike many houses, this large family home is designed and laid out for maximum use. No rooms will sit unused. The community, too, has so much to offer. In winter, enjoy skating at the community outdoor rink (only a short walk away). And during the hot summer months, relax on the community beach or launch your boat at the community launch and enjoy the beautiful Kennebecasis River. The friendly neighbourhood is a lovely place to walk, jog, bike, or even ice fish! Kennebecasis Park Elementary School is within walking distance and middle/high school bus stops are close by. Hastings Cove is a mere 10-minute drive to the city centre, shopping and hospitals.
