Ocean Retreat by the City of Halifax - Cottage Rental Listing Details

 Add to Favorites
The House that Albert Built - An Authentic and Beautifully restored "Saltbox" style Fisherman's Home

Description:
Our home is located on the coast of Nova Scotia, 15 minutes from Canada's oldest city, Halifax. It is an oceanside century restored Irish "saltbox" style house ideally placed in the beautiful fishing village of Ketch Harbour. It has a private garden, one 4 piece bath, 3 bedrooms (two with double beds and one single), a newly renovated kitchen (2006) that combines with the dining area, living room which includes a large cast iron wood stove, an office/studio space and a small meditation/ reading den. Our home is well maintained, comfortable and inviting to friends and family. I have never yet heard anyone who has not enjoyed their stay in our home and our community.

Ketch Harbour is located on the Atlantic Coastal approaches to Halifax Harbour from downtown Halifax. Ketch Harbour is a small hamlet of approximately 500 residents. It was settled by Irish families in the mid 1700's and is now home to an ecclectic blend of their descendants and newcomers who are mostly working professionals. The entire community is wonderful, however a special note must be given to my immediate neighbors, all whom have become family to us in the decade we have lived here. We are 5 minutes from three gorgeous white sand beaches, all water sports happen on our doorstep, there are numerous coastal hiking trail opportunities, and historic Halifax with its tall ships, shops, festivals, nightlife and museums and galleries are only 15 minutes away. We have the best of both rural oceanside living and urban excitement.

Notes:
Please contact me via e-mail or phone for availability - I or my staff will respond very quickly. And if this property isn't available I have a number of other beautiful properties that might fit your needs. Some are close to each other and so could be used by large, multi-party groups.

If you're interested in a booking I will also provide you with more information on the area and its attractions. And when you arrive here you won't be abandoned (unless you wish for total privacy, of course.) Either I or my staff will be here to assist you and give you any help you may need.
