About this home

There’s a kind of quiet here that’s hard to describe until you’ve felt it. No through traffic. No noise bleeding in from the neighbours. Just the sound of the Atlantic, the light shifting across the water, and a morning that belongs entirely to you. At 38 Motion Lane, the ocean isn’t just a feature—it’s the backdrop to your everyday life. The living room, the dining room, the office, the guest bedroom, the rec room—every front-facing room frames a sweeping view of the water. Imagine sitting at your desk and glancing up to that. Or waking up as a guest and having the Atlantic be the first thing you see. The lot is a generous 0.3 acres, fully serviced with municipal water and sewer—a rare find in Torbay, and the kind of detail that means less to worry about and more time to simply enjoy where you live. Inside, the home is warm and wonderfully sized—nearly 1,300 sq. ft. per floor, hardwood stairs, 4 bedrooms, and 2.5 bathrooms. The primary suite is your private retreat—tucked away from it all, with its own ensuite for quiet mornings that start on your terms. Downstairs, the large rec room is ready for hosting family, pursuing a hobby, or giving the grandchildren a space to call their own when they visit. Two garages and a driveway that fits up to 10 cars means there’s always room when everyone comes together. Step outside and coastal Newfoundland opens up around you—Middle Cove Beach just minutes down the road, the East Coast Trail for a morning walk with the sea air in your lungs, and a street so peaceful it feels set apart from the rest of the world. St. John’s is only 10 minutes away when you need it, but you may find you need it less and less. This is the kind of life people spend years working toward. (id:65958)
