It’s a new day and a new year as we traverse into 2021.  Fellow New Brunswicker’s hold their breath as we recently move into zone Orange after the Christmas/New Year holiday and students home from university.  Our province has done so very well throughout the pandemic and we’re asked by our leaders to continue to practice extreme caution to keep our numbers low so that we can once again roll back into the yellow zone.  The great news of the new year is the rolling out of the Covid vaccine which has started being administered here in our home province.  Everyone is anxiously asking, “When will we get vaccinated?”.  I belive Papa will be on a short list as a senior but the answer is up in the air for Mama.  Let’s hope the entire province gets their vaccines soon!!!  Then we’ll be home free and things will get back to normal.  Some days it’s hard to remember what normal was.  We have learned so much this past year and some of the things we’ve learned should stay with us even when the pandemic is over.  For examble, washing our hands, many times a day will keep the common cold at bay as well as the basic flu.  I think we’ll all looking forward to the days when we no longer have to wear a mask.  Our Lisa gave Mama and Papa special masks for Christmas that are made in Europe.  They’re super comfortable, very easy to breathe in and super safe with 5 layers of carbon in interchangeable filters.  They absolutely love them.

Mama wears her’s as she shows houses as her and Charlie are still busy with real estate which is considered an essential service (everyone needs a place to live).  They are both super careful for their buyers, sellers and themselves following the CREA and NBREA rules and regulations.

We have a beautiful new listing which I personally love located on the ocean in Grande Digue, just 10 mintues from Shediac at 99 Moonlight Drive MLS#NB052641 at the end of a quiet cul de sac.  Mama is really excited about this one as it’s right up her ally and mine too.  There’s nothing I love more than a home with acreage (2.7 acres) a beach for relaxing, ocean for swimming, fireplace to cosy up to and huge wrap-around deck to watch the sun rise over the water.  This home has a chef’s dream kitchen with highend JennAir appliances (6-burner gas stove & 300 bottle wine fridge for example), 3 bedrooms all with ensuite baths including fabulous ensuite, finished basement with home theatre & more.  Two of the bedrooms are on the main level, perfect if there are any mobility issues.  The package is completed with the 3-car attached garage.  Only minutes from famous fine sand beaches, town amenities (think lobster festival!) and miles of trails for hiking, skiing, etc.  All in all, my kind of place!  Offered at $850,000.

 

 

 

I have to tell you that Nicholas had a great nineth birthday on Christmas Day getting his very favourite present, a ball that not only bounces high but squeeks when he bites it as well.  They little guy has been driving me nut with his squeek, squeek, squeek!  He’s soooo happy and takes it everywhere with him, even to bed at night!

Watch for more very interesting listings coming this way this coming week!  Have a great weekend and we’ll talk soon.  Stay safe!
