Listing Remarks

There are lake properties... and then there are places that become part of your family's story. Welcome to your own private retreat on beautiful Lake Torment, where the shoreline steals the show. With a stunning sandy beach, direct waterfront, private dock, boat launch, lakeside patio, and breathtaking sunsets that never seem to get old. Driving down the Forties Road, you'll feel the pace of life begin to slow. The noise of the city fades behind you and you can finally exhale. Just 1 hour and 15 minutes from Halifax, 40 minutes to Bridgewater or Berwick, and only 30 minutes to Chester, it's close enough for weekend escapes and comfortable enough for year-round living. Set on a beautifully treed, private lot with this welcoming lakehouse offers almost 1,000 sq. ft. of one-level living with three bedrooms, a den, and a full bath—making it ideal for families, retirees, or those looking for the perfect year-round getaway. Inside, there's an opportunity to add your own cosmetic touches while enjoying the comfort of a cozy wood stove, an efficient heat pump for year-round climate control, and the peace of mind that comes with a durable metal roof installed a few years ago. Outside is where this property truly shines. Enjoy your morning coffee on the expansive front deck overlooking the lake, spend your days swimming, boating, kayaking or fishing from your private dock, and gather with family and friends in the detached screened room, where meals, games and conversations continue long after the sun sets—even when the rain rolls through. Whether you're searching for a year-round home, a family retreat, or a place to escape the pace of everyday life, this property offers something increasingly difficult to find—privacy, exceptional waterfront, breathtaking sunsets. This isn't just a year round lakehouse. It's where weekends turn into traditions, four seasons become lifelong memories, and every visit begins with a deep breath and ends with plans to come back soon.
