Sweet Hornby Home: Just above the Sandpiper neighbourhood, this charming home offers privacy, character, and a peaceful natural setting. Set back from the road on a 0.53-acre lot, it’s surrounded by mature, untamed landscaping that creates a “secret garden” feel and provides a natural buffer from the road. Inside, the home features vaulted ceilings, skylights, and abundant windows that fill the space with soft, natural light. Warm hardwood floors add comfort and character, and the open layout includes a spacious kitchen, dining area, and living room. There are two bedrooms and one bright bathroom with a large tiled shower. Front and back decks extend the living space outdoors & fencing has been added to help define the yard and offer a sense of privacy. A drilled well and septic system are in place. While there is some work to be done, this is a great home—close to beaches, trails, and the best of Hornby. Some photos have been virtually staged.
