Set across over 7.39 acres of beautifully established grounds overlooking the sheltered waters of Princes Inlet, this distinguished oceanfront estate captures the essence of coastal living on Nova Scotia’s South Shore. Exceptionally private yet remarkably connected, it is a property defined as much by its setting as by the residence itself. Encompassing over 7,000 square feet across three levels, the home offers five bedrooms, five bathrooms and a collection of generously proportioned living spaces. Fireplaces, expansive views and a natural connection to the gardens lend warmth and character throughout. A main-level primary suite provides a private retreat, while the kitchen and formal dining room open towards the grounds and stone patio, inviting gatherings that extend effortlessly outdoors. Beyond the residence, the estate unfolds across a landscape of mature trees, manicured gardens, an orchard and winding walking trails. A picturesque pond with fountain and footbridge adds to the property’s timeless character, creating a setting of remarkable tranquility and seclusion. With over 300 feet of protected oceanfront, a private wharf and boathouse, the property offers direct access to the celebrated sailing waters of the South Shore. A four-bay garage and separate studio or private office further complement the estate. For all its privacy, the historic communities of Mahone Bay and Lunenburg are just minutes away, with Halifax approximately an hour’s drive. An increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a substantial oceanfront estate where acreage, privacy and an extraordinary natural setting remain the ultimate luxury.
