106 Pond Road

My parents’ home in Rocky Harbour NL in Gros Morne National Park is now for sale! It is 1232 sq ft PLUS a full basement on a large lot with enough driveway parking for all the friends and relatives (tried and tested many times over the years). This house is solid with great bones (no problems hanging pictures on these walls). It was built in 1978 so yes a little dated, but still a great house as a starter home, family home, or for anyone wanting to downsize from a large house without going too small. It has three good size bedrooms with extra deep closets and one large bathroom. The living room and hallway have gorgeous hardwood floors (and if you’re ambitious, under the kitchen and dining room “cushion floor” you will uncover pine floors that can be brought back to life with some refinishing). The basement is multi-functional with storage rooms, a terrific rec room with a built in bar (lots of great parties were had in that room), a laundry room and a furnace room with enough space for a workshop and an oversized door leading to the backyard. The house has electric heat, but also a wood furnace to keep those energy bills down. Nothing like wood heat to keep the chill off during those damp winter months. There’s enough wood on site already for at least one full winter, and included in the sale. The shed/garage has a loft for storage with a little balcony, and a side addition to park the toys like quads, snowmobiles, or anything else needing storage, plus it offers up a terrific NL shed party vibe! It was a terrific family home growing up and is now ready to be enjoyed by another family. The mature trees offer tons of privacy from the road in the summer when in bloom and the fruit and berry trees are quite abundant (and enjoyable ). The house is located on Pond Road with a terrific view of Gros Morne mountain and as it’s slightly inland, you won’t have the same concern about the strong winds that come from being directly on the harbourfront (and yes they can be brutal!).

My parents are now ready for the next phase of their lives in a smaller seniors place and ready to pass the keys to their home of the past 40+ years to another family to enjoy. The house includes all the kitchen appliances, washer and dryer, deep freezers, and everything else can certainly be negotiated!
