After spending a decade in Halifax and almost 8 years in Calgary, she moved back to Nova Scotia in 2021 and now happily calls the Annapolis Valley home again.
During her time away, Kate entered into the world of architectural drafting, honing her skills as a technician. She then drew on her eye for detail and space to design custom interior cabinetry. It was during these years that her love for all things related to ‘home’ began to flourish. Kate found herself captivated by the subtle art of creating spaces that truly resonated with people and their unique tastes and needs.
Real Estate was a natural progression for Kate, allowing her to merge her background in architecture and design with her newfound passion for home. Kate's commitment to excellence, keen eye for design, and deep understanding of what makes a house a home make her a standout real estate agent.
As Kate looks forward to her future at MacKay Real Estate, she is excited to continue using her unique blend of experiences, knowledge, and genuine love for the industry to make a difference in the lives of those she assists. With her, clients can rest assured that they have a dedicated and passionate partner who will go above and beyond to make their real estate dreams come true.
Kate takes great joy and pride in working closely with clients to ensure that their real estate experience is nothing short of exceptional.
Just a short walk to downtown Wolfville, this updated up/down duplex presents an excellent opportunity for investors or owner-occupants seeking mortgage/rental income. Situated on a large lot with a spacious yard, there's plenty of room for gardening, outdoor play, or entertaining. Extensively updated since 2021, both units have benefited from significant cosmetic improvements, including updated bathrooms, fresh paint, modern light fixtures, custom blinds, new appliances, all less than three years old. The upper unit also features a new heat pump, pellet stove, and durable vinyl plank flooring throughout most living areas. The bright upper-level unit offers 2 bedrooms, a spacious living room, a large eat-in kitchen with ample cabinet space and natural light, a generous laundry room with excellent storage, and an oversized bathroom accessible from both the primary bedroom and hallway. The bathroom features a freestanding tub, separate shower, and plenty of room for busy mornings. The upper unit also enjoys a large rear deck overlooking the yard and also can come fully furnished (UPPER UNIT ONLY). The lower unit offers a similar layout with 3 bedrooms. The area beneath the upper laundry room serves as the lower-level bathroom, while the space corresponding to the large upper bathroom has been configured as an additional bedroom, creating a functional and desirable three-bedroom unit. A newly paved driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles, with space for three cars side-by-side. Separate power meters allow tenants to pay their own electricity and utility costs, helping reduce operating expenses and simplify management. Located just minutes from shops, restaurants, amenities, and Acadia University, this property offers strong rental appeal. The upper unit is an owner-occupied arrangement and could offer additional revenue potential if rented at full market occupancy.
