Whether you are a local or a Come From Away, the beauty of Port Morien is undeniable. This property has stood the tests of time and also Mother Nature! A fixture in the community for many years, it has evolved from a small family home to having an addition which housed a successful tea room/restaurant with rental suites; it was then purchased by Donkin Mine to observe the shipping lanes. The current owners have renovated to create a family living space, upgraded the 2 suites which could be year round rentals through Air BnB or permanent tenants. The 'original home' could also be used for income, whether as another rental space, or perhaps you have a small business that until now you have dreamed of opening. It is up to your imagination what this property will be next. The original home offers an eat in kitchen area and living room on the main floor, with 2 bedrooms and a 4pce bathroom upstairs. There is a large open area on the 2nd floor that could be a third bedroom or serve as an office/study space. The 'new' addition houses a bright custom kitchen space, living room, bedroom, his and hers bathrooms, and dining room that looks over Morien Bay and opens to the large back deck through patio doors.
