Imagine waking up every morning to the sound of the surf and the sight of Prince Edward Island’s North Shore. There is nothing between you and the ocean but nature and sunshine. Fourteen hundred square feet of outside decking compliments twenty-five hundred square feet of lovingly furnished coastal living. Our unique two storey beach house is located in a gated community on a private cul-de-sac. The panoramic tree top views from two wrap around decks showcase the shoreline, the dunes, a spectacular pond and two lighthouses. Our beautiful family friendly home was constructed for multi family or couples use with four bedrooms and four washrooms. The first level allows for independent living with a kitchenette, fridge, entertainment area, dining table, and access to the large lower deck with its own barbecue. There is a king sized master ensuite, with double vessel sinks. Our second bedroom has a queen sized bed. We have a full family bathroom, and third bedroom with double bunk beds. There is a single trundle under the bunk beds. For your little ones, we have a new Pack 'n' Play and convertible high chair as well. Upstairs, you will find a spacious fully equipped chef’s kitchen with granite counter tops, wine and beverage fridge, walk in pantry, all new stainless steel appliances, and large island with second sink. The main living room features vaulted ceilings with a modern linear propane fireplace, large screen TV, and comfortable sectional couch with queen sized pull out bed. The king sized master ensuite includes double glass vessel sinks, a beautiful soaker tub and large rainforest shower. You have a private walk out to the deck from the master bedroom. Enjoy sunsets from the expansive deck or The Snug, a cosy screened sunroom beside the kitchen. We have installed high efficiency heat pumps throughout our home for heat or air conditioning, as well as ceiling fans in every bedroom. Outside, take advantage of the fire pit, lobster boiler and picnic table. You will find everything you need for a day at the beach in the shed. We have portable folding chairs, a wagon, a tent beach shelter, and lots of beach toys. After your beach adventures, the outdoor shower makes it easy to clean away the sand. A short walk leads you to one of the true gems of the North Shore - Thunder Cove Beach. Walk for miles along the pristine sand and enjoy nature’s sandstone art gallery. Thunder Cove is the western gateway to the North Shore with its world famous seafood, numerous golf courses, charming harbours and National Park. Ocean based activities, such as kayaking, and deep sea fishing are nearby. All of these attractions are within a half hour’s drive. There are scenic provincial parks to explore as well. Malpeque Harbour with its famous oysters is just a fifteen minute drive from our house. We are less than an hour to Charlottetown and the International Airport. The shoulder season months of spring and fall bring their own magic to Orion’s Porch. Birders will delight in sighting the numerous migrating and resident bird species, including bald eagles, ospreys, water fowl, song birds and roosting herons. (In one week period in May an amateur ornithologist identified over 45 species!) In June, PEI Tourism showcases the Festival of Small Halls, with concerts available in many nearby venues. Throughout the season there are excellent summer theatre productions, music festivals, art and craft shows, and markets. In September the Fall Flavours Food Festival is not to be missed! Shellfish Festival is in September too. With minimal light pollution, the night sky puts on a breathtaking display. Watching the stars appear after sunset is one of our favourite activities. The constellation Orion can be hard to see during the summer months. We like to think that Orion comes down from his place in the sky and enjoys the spectacular view from our deck. Come and pull up a chair on Orion’s porch and create your own family memories.
