About this home

Stunning, natural, intimate: Of the many spectacular shorelines that define Nova Scotia's South Shore, the northeastern coast of Heckmans Island stands among the most breathtaking. Here, this remarkable oceanfront estate offers an extraordinary variety of waterfront experiences rarely found on a single property: a sheltered bay for launching a boat, a rock ledge for diving into crystal-clear water, a scenic lookout, and a small pebble beach. The home's spacious design was inspired by the work of 1920s craftsmen, renowned for building homes that feel like a warm hug, with exquisite custom woodwork throughout, purposefully designed spaces, and thoughtfully crafted built-ins. Covered porches at the front and back provide a seamless transition between indoors and out, offering inviting places to relax and spend quality time, whatever the season or weather. Natural walking paths meander throughout the property, connecting each of its special places into one harmonious landscape. From the house, the paths lead to the hot tub, the gazebo, the beach, the diving ledge, the lookout, the private boat launch, the pond, and finally the flourishing kitchen garden. Raised beds and a greenhouse provide everything needed to grow fresh herbs, vegetables, and flowers, adding yet another layer of enjoyment to this exceptional coastal lifestyle. Oceanfront properties of this calibre have become increasingly rare in Lunenburg County. Lovingly cared for and thoughtfully enhanced over the years, this remarkable property strikes the perfect balance between cultivated landscapes and untouched coastal wildernessa place where people and nature coexist in harmony.
