Summerside, PE
Offered for sale at 899,900 CAD
There’s something about this home that stays with you… long after you’ve left.
Set in the heart of Summerside’s historic district, where tree-lined streets meet ocean air and every home carries a story, 156 Summer Street is more than a property… it’s an opportunity to live beautifully while creating something truly meaningful.
Built in 1916 by Island craftsman M.F. Schurman, this grand three storey residence has been thoughtfully restored to honour its heritage while embracing modern comfort. From the moment you step inside, you feel it. The warmth. The character. The quiet elegance of a home that has been loved and lived in for generations.
Sunlight pours across polished floors. Original mouldings frame each room with timeless detail. The living room, anchored by the original fireplace, invites connection… whether it’s slow mornings with coffee, evenings by the fire, or laughter-filled gatherings with family and guests. Just beyond, French doors open to a wraparound deck, where summer days stretch into unforgettable Island nights.
The kitchen blends past and present with ease, offering granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a cozy breakfast nook that feels like the heart of the home.
Upstairs, four beautifully appointed bedrooms each feature their own private ensuite, creating an ideal setup for hosting guests or running a boutique bed and breakfast. The third floor offers a peaceful retreat… a luxurious primary suite complete with a spa-inspired bath and soaker tub, along with an additional ensuite bedroom perfect for extended family or premium guest accommodations.
The lower level adds even more versatility, with space for a gym, games room, laundry, and ample storage… making day to day living as functional as it is comfortable.
Outside, the lifestyle continues. Nearly half an acre of mature landscaping surrounds the home, with multiple outdoor living spaces designed for gathering and relaxing. A pergola-covered terrace, expansive decks, and a detached double garage with loft space offer endless possibilities… whether you envision a private studio, guest suite, or creative retreat.
What makes this property truly special is its flexibility.
For those dreaming of a lifestyle business, this home offers a seamless opportunity to step into a thriving bed and breakfast or inn… welcoming travelers from around the world while living on-site and building a rewarding, profitable venture.
Or, for those simply searching for a forever home, it offers space, character, and a setting that invites you to slow down and truly enjoy Island living.
It’s rare to find a property that allows you to live, host, and create all in one place.
At 156 Summer Street, you don’t have to choose.
You can have it all.
