About this property

Barrington Bay Seaside Cottage with two bedrooms on Nova Scotia's south shore

This cozy two-bedroom house on the Barrington Bay's shore seamlessly combines historic charm with new, contemporary updates. You'll find exquisitely restored original
features, timeless wainscoting, and traditional doors.

Out back guests are welcomed with a large deck that is ideal for barbecues and the huge yard extends all the way to the water's edge.
Use the kayaks and stand-up paddleboards supplied to explore the picturesque shoreline right from the backyard, then unwind while watching the world go by in Muskoka chairs and enjoy an evening fire by the firepit.

Guests will enjoy the freshly renovated coastal escape nestled along the serene shores of Barrington Bay. This bright cottage perfectly blends classic maritime charm updated with brand-new flooring, crisp white trim, and gorgeous vintage crystal door hardware; every detail has been thoughtfully updated to ensure guests
enjoy a comfortable stay.

Guests will welcome the open-concept layout, where large windows brighten the cottage with natural light and highlight the stunning natural landscape. The fully equipped eat-in kitchen is well appointed and perfect for enjoying locally caught seafood.

After a day of seeing the sights, guests can unwind on the plush leather couch and recliner and enjoy the flat-screen Roku TV or step into one of the thoughtfully appointed bedrooms decorated with coastal charm and view the large yard and waterfront.

Guests will have full, exclusive access to the entire home and greenspace, including:
A bright, open living area equipped with a flat-screen Roku TV.
Two comfortable bedrooms decorated with coastal charm and Bay views.
A full bathroom with a shower and tub combined.
An in-unit laundry room with a washer and dryer.
