17-Woodlawn, Portland Estates, Nantucket Portland Hills B2W 5Z9

Serenity in the City A little piece of Portland Estates history, and a home unlike any other. As the fourth home ever built in this sought after Dartmouth community, 1 Joan Eleanor Drive has a story that spans more than 40 years. Built by the only owners as a creative playground, this distinctive chalet inspired residence reflects a lifetime of imagination, care and thoughtful individuality. Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings, dramatic floor to ceiling windows and beautiful natural wood create an atmosphere filled with warmth and natural light. An impressive staircase and inviting propane stove add to the home's unmistakable character. With three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, approximately 1,640 square feet of finished living space, ample storage and a large workshop, there's plenty of room to live, create and enjoy. Outside on the 13,000 sq. ft. lot the award winning gardens tell their own story. Lovingly cultivated over four decades, the mature landscaping, established plantings and generous outdoor spaces create a private retreat that changes beautifully with the seasons. A spacious deck offers the perfect place to sit back and take it all in. Enjoy the serenity in this established neighbourhood while remaining close to Dartmouth's walking trails, parks, shopping, schools and everyday amenities. A home with history, gardens with a legacy and a personality all its own.
