Why they chose this property
The first time we drove onto the property we were hooked. We were looking for a secluded getaway from our hectic life in Halifax; somewhere we could walk out onto the beach and let our dogs run free. This property was exactly what we were looking for!
What makes this property unique
If you are looking for a quiet, private getaway, this is the perfect place. Our neighbours on the lane are lovely, and we all like our solitude. The beach is rarely used; on occasion, locals come to walk but the majority of the time the beach is all yours. You can launch your kayak or canoe from the property, enjoy a swim, have a fire in our custom outdoor fireplace, and enjoy the sunsets from the west-facing front yard.
The cottage has undergone an extensive renovation, exposing its shed ceiling and adding a bedroom. The living area is spacious and the kitchen is separated from the main living area and bedrooms, meaning early riser can make their coffee without disturbing the rest of the family!
It's a traditional family cottage; it has rustic charm with all the amenities you need for a restorative vacation. The real benefit is the privacy and the quiet. We often see deer, eagles, and hawks pass by. You can walk for ages along the shore and not see another soul.
Despite its seclusion, it is only a 10 minute drive from New Glasgow and a 20 minute drive to Pictou. If you bring a boat it's only a 5 minute ride or paddle to Hector Quai!
