Stunning Smith House in the Shobac Community designed by internationally renowned architect Brian MacKay-Lyons is now available for monthly rentals. Rare direct access to Hirtles Beach and Gaff Point by way of adjacent ten-acre beach front field is included at the property. The three pavilions consist of the main “day pavilion” with a living room, kitchen/dining area, bathroom and hidden granite wine cellar, accessed by a secret trap door and staircase. Next door is the night pavilion featuring a primary bedroom with ensuite and further on is the “shed” with bathroom, twin bed and two single beds perched in the rafters. Stay comfy and warm after a day of surfing in front of the sixteen-foot-long granite fireplace. The mantle stone that dominates the living space is ten tonnes of granite! Natural ventilation predominates, cross breezes through operable triple-glazed doors and window vents make the most of the area’s relatively mild winters and summers. Super-insulated walls offer energy efficiency, and a hydronic system heats the floors. Furniture is custom-designed and crafted for the home. The magnificent outdoor space is punctuated with locally quarried 6” Nova Scotian granite veneer and pavers, an outdoor kitchen and infinite heated salt water spa hot tub. Smith House has received dozens of awards and global recognition including Plan Award Finalist; Architizer Awards, A+ Awards Finalist (2020) and Residential Design Architecture Awards (2020) among others.
