This ocean side house is nestled just above Freda’s Beach with stunning views from almost every room in the house of the busy recreational harbour, featuring an active and inviting yacht club across to the golf club and the various islands dotting the coastline. Chester is the most charming seaside town in Nova Scotia and is the centre of the summer social and sailing scene of Nova Scotia with a relaxed and inviting atmosphere. This ~4,000 sq ft cottage is a stone’s throw to the yacht club, and a short walk to restaurants, pubs, shops and the playhouse. 

The house offers an open format, 60 ft long living, dining and socializing main room that is anchored by a wood burning Stuv fireplace and has a wall of windows towards the ocean, complete with a pass-through window from the kitchen to ensure you always have expansive water views. The 4 bedroom and 3 full bath home was recently renovated and has been meticulously updated for year-round living, double glazed windows, central air conditioning, built-in speakers, and so much more, all while recalling its charming Cape Cod look and feel.

The property also boasts two indoor garages, with parking for three cars. All this only 45 minutes from Halifax.
