About this propertyMLS® 1299784
Welcome to this truly one-of-a-kind oceanfront property in the heart of historic Bonavista, where breathtaking sunsets, panoramic ocean views, and authentic Newfoundland charm come together. Just a short stroll from local cafés, restaurants, artisan shops, this exceptional property offers a rare opportunity to own both a beautifully renovated home and a character-filled heritage guest cottage. The main residence has been extensively renovated while maintaining its warm and inviting character. The thoughtfully designed layout features a convenient main-floor bedroom and laundry, making everyday living easy and accessible. Upstairs, you’ll find two additional bedrooms, creating comfortable space for family or guests. Adding incredible value is the detached heritage guest cottage, where much of the original charm has been carefully preserved. Offering four bedrooms, one bathroom, a cozy living room, and a kitchen, it provides endless possibilities as a guest retreat, rental property, or space for extended family. The cottage is a Registered Heritage Structure, know as the Samuel Abbott Fishing Room c1870. Outside, the property’s rich Newfoundland heritage continues with a traditional two-storey twine loft complete with its own flake—an increasingly rare feature that captures the area’s fishing history. A separate storage shed provides additional storage, while the expansive oceanfront setting offers front-row seats to spectacular sunsets, passing whales, icebergs in season, and the ever-changing beauty of the Atlantic. Whether you’re searching for a distinctive year-round residence, an unforgettable coastal retreat, or a property with exceptional income potential, as #4 holds a short term rental permit that is transferable to buyer, this remarkable Bonavista offering is unlike anything else on the market. Property is being offered ""AS IS WHERE IS""

How this works
Not an architectural plan: each rectangle's width and height are proportional to the listed room dimensions at one shared scale; room positions are not the real layout. Hover or focus a room for its exact size.
Furniture scenes are drawn to the same scale to show what fits: a bed sized to the room (king/queen/double/single) with nightstands and a dresser, bathtub→shower→toilet+vanity by space, sofa + coffee table + armchairs, counter + island, dining set… centred as a group. Placement is illustrative, not the real arrangement.
