Featuring views of Covehead Bay, a stay at Bayview Abode in Stanhope is like the long exhale you didn’t know you needed. This 2 bedroom, year-round cottage was completely overhauled in 2020, and today is the ideal place to relax, play, explore, and even work during your PEI holiday.
Containing vaulted ceilings, natural light, and brand new finishings throughout, it’s a short walk or drive to National Park beaches, trails & attractions, tasty dining, world-famous golf, and a 20-minute drive to Charlottetown. No detail has been spared in this 900 square foot cottage that punches above its weight. It was renovated and (re)designed by two native Islanders, one an experienced home builder and the other an author & content manager in the tourism industry, in 2020.
The decor takes inspiration from the natural environment that surrounds it, which can best be described as "contemporary-coastal", giving it a very relaxed feel. Think natural woods, clean lines, rattan furniture, locally-made artwork, greenery, soft materials in linens, towels & furniture, and soothing beach tones with tasteful pops of colour.
Open concept kitchen, living room, and breakfast nook with vaulted ceilings and stunning natural light throughout. Down the hall, you’ll find a spare room with a luxurious queen bed. At the back of the cottage is the primary bedroom with views of the surrounding spruce trees and a walk-in closet. The modest bathroom contains a stand-up shower and washer & dryer.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a dishwasher and island for prepping, dining, entertaining and, of course, shucking oysters! Brand new heat pump offers air conditioning for those hot summer days and plenty of coziness for a winter retreat.
A huge deck spans the front and both sides of the cottage, with the east side making a perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee in the sun. The large lawn off the deck offers an ideal space to have a bonfire, play lawn games with friends & family, and enjoy the outdoor shower!
There is never a dull moment in the coastal area of Stanhope... unless, of course, you want there to be! Everything you need to enjoy your vacation is within walking distance or a 5-minute drive, and the capital city of Charlottetown is a quick 20-minute car ride.
