Property Details

Waterside Farm Vacation House is a one hundred and sixty year old farm house, with wonderful character, built on the banks of Pownal Bay, on south shore of Prince Edward Island. Shaded by giant oak, linden and chestunut trees, the homestead has been in the MacRae family for five generations . It has since been extensively renovated and modernized by Sandra, a direct descendent, and now offers a complete,year round vacation package for families or couples .
The house is skirted by rolling pasture fields....and faces the bright, blue waters of Pownal Bay. It offers peace, tranquility and a special closeness to the land and sea. The historic character is intact in the design and interior of the House, with its original trim and molding, authentic and functional pieces of furniture and antiques gathered over many years.

The entrance is through a long porch , decorated with farm and fishing artifacts, then a modern kitchen , with ten foot high ceilings and a birch , hardwood floor.
It leads into an old-fashion, formal dining room with elegant furniture from years back.

Next, there's a hallway into a confortable den, with a wall made of Island stone dug from the old basement,a woodstove, 27 " T.V. and DVD and 300 watt surround-sound
The half bath, shower and full laundryroom facilities are also on the ground floor.

An old stair case, with time worn bannister, takes you upstairs to the four bedrooms , full bath and an alcove with a reading chair and a relaxing view of the farm.
Original, golden-rich pine plank floors run through most of rooms.

There are many old, historic prints; some of famous Boar war scenes that have been collected over the years and stored away in " cubby"holes in the attic.
Just fifteen minutes from Charlottetown, the capital of Prince Edward Island, Waterside Farm Vacation House offers a peaceful vacation in an elegant farm house, surrounded by water and farmland in a tranquil rural setting.

Pownal Bay is large and reaches out past Point Prim, and Governor's Island to Northumberland Strait and on clear days , one can see the blurry outline of Nova Scotia.

The Bay is rich in wildlife, seals and seabirds, which populate two small, near by Islands that can be reached by boat.

There is shellfish along the bay, harvested by fishermen in small dories who comb the mudflats on low tide for the hard shell clams and oysters.

The Vacation House remains part of a working farm, a 100 head, cow calf operation where the cows and their black and tan calves graze on lush pastures that encircle the house and run down to Pownal Bay. In the early mornings, they graze along the water's edge,sometimes shrouded in mist and the dark shades of half sunlight.

We provide evening truck rides through the pasture and if schedule permits, sailing trips around the bay aboard our 25-foot, C&C " Jeffery Boys" .
