About this home

Where Maritime History Meets Coastal Living Perched at the mouth of Halifax Harbour along the historic shipping lanes, this captivating seaside property captures the timeless charm of a classic captains house. With 120 feet of ocean frontage, youll enjoy ever-changing panoramic views of passing boats, cruise ships, and marine life from the aptly named Lower Deck your a front-row seat to Nova Scotias coastal beauty. Rich in maritime history, this stretch of coastline is also home to the wreck of the HMHS Letitia, a World War I hospital ship that sank nearby and continues to intrigue divers and history enthusiasts alike. Inside, the home is filled with warmth and character, anchored by a stunning floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace and expansive hurricane-proof paned windows that frame breathtaking ocean vistas while filling the space with natural light. The upper deck offers an even more dramatic perspective, the perfect place to watch eagles soar overhead and soak in the salty sea air. While the property could benefit from some updating and personal touches, it presents a rare opportunity for its next owners to thoughtfully restore and reimagine a truly iconic waterfront home. The main level offers one bedroom and one bath, while additional space in the basement is currently being used as a second bedroom; providing flexibility for guests, hobbies, or future possibilities. A rare chance to own a piece of Nova Scotias maritime soul, 634 Ketch Harbour Road offers serenity, history, and oceanfront living in one remarkable package. *Please do not enter the property without an agent/ booking a private viewing.
