Step into a piece of Annapolis Valley history at 230 Rocknotch Road, the original McMaster family homestead dating back to 1901. With deep roots in the community and a connection to the historic McMaster Lumber Mill, this charming five-bedroom home offers a rare blend of heritage, character, modern comforts, and natural beauty. Surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens and lush greenery, the property feels like a private nature lover’s paradise, where the soothing sounds of the nearby (Fales River waterfalls) can be heard throughout the grounds. Winding trails lead you through established garden beds, blueberry and raspberry bushes, apple, pear and cherry trees, and magnificent old-growth sugar maples known for producing excellent maple syrup. A natural spring with its own tap adds another unique touch, while newly planted native trees, including red oak, hemlock, white pine and birch, will continue to enhance this beautiful landscape for generations to come. Whimsical handwoven branch art, creative signage and thoughtful details throughout the grounds give the property an almost storybook atmosphere, making it feel like a world of its own. Inside, the home offers five bedrooms, plenty of historic charm, and the convenience of updated systems and appliances, including a new ducted heat pump for year-round comfort. A spacious driveway with access from two separate roads provides ample parking and flexibility. Just across the road, McMaster Mill Historic Park offers scenic walking trails and a fantastic viewing platform overlooking a picturesque waterfall. Whether you’re an avid gardener, nature enthusiast, history lover, or simply looking for a property unlike anything else, this remarkable homestead offers a truly special place to call home.
