About this home

Historic c1780 Colonial Estate with panoramic views of the Annapolis River in Tupperville, Nova Scotia.

Known as the 'Delancey Estate', this remarkable home overlooks sweeping farmland, the winding Annapolis River, and the mountains beyond - an iconic view matched only by the estate's storied past.
