Property description for 5482 Union Highway, River Ryan, NS B1H 1B2

SFormer Horse Farm on 1.9 Acres with Converted Barn/Garage Set on approximately 1.9 acres in River Ryan, this charming bungalow was once part of a former horse farm and offers space, privacy, and plenty of potential. The home features 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, a bright living room, kitchen, rear mudroom, municipal water, septic, oil forced-air heat, and a practical single-level layout. The current laundry room was formerly a third bedroom and could be easily converted back, giving buyers added flexibility for family, guests, or home office use. A standout feature is the former horse barn, now converted into a wired detached garage with loft space ideal for storage, workshop use, studio space, or possible future conversion into an additional living unit, subject to municipal approvals. Outside, the property offers plenty of parking, a gravel driveway, rear deck, shed, partially cleared and treed land, and a back pasture area that still reflects its horse-farm roots. Vacant and available for quick possession, this is a great opportunity for buyers looking for a rural-style property with flexible outbuilding space and room to make it their own. (id:38686)
