Large historic home on St Margaret’s Bay near Peggys Cove, Nova Scotia, Canada
Peggy’s Cove, Nova Scotia is one of the world’s most beautiful and iconic Canadian sites, with expansive beaches of boulders and quaint fishing villages that line this spectacular coastline. Our home is 240 years old, and local historians say it was once a boarding house for rum runners including Al Capone who famously ran guns through St Margaret’s Bay (right across the road). Our 4 bedroom home has 3 full bathrooms and a small gym, is 3 levels for loads of privacy, and has views of the bay with nooks to read, play board games, cook meals and spend time with family and friends. 2 kayaks available. 17' Siren sailboat possibly available (if you can sail). Lobster and dancing down the road at the Shore Club - open since 1946, and a showcase for east coast musicians. Please see the lifestyle description for further details.

We’re flexible! This home is our cottage, so it is open really anytime, but we need a couple of months' notice to arrange time off work for travel if it's going to be a synchronous exchange. Also available as VRBO. |

Neighborhood
About the neighborhood
Glen Margaret is one of a string of small communities along Peggy’s Cove Rd, along the South shore of the Nova Scotia Coastline, 10 minutes from the iconic landmark of Peggy’s Cove. Although the community is in the country, there are grocery stores, a liquor/cannabis store, banks, hardware and drug stores, coffee shops, book stores, antique stores and art galleries, restaurants, bakeries and craft boutiques throughout Peggy’s Cove, especially during the summer months. Please note: the house, while in a large yard, is on a busy road that has a 70km speed limit, as it is the lighthouse route thoroughfare that follows the coastline.

We are a blended family, with 4 adult ‘kids’, and two grandkids. Respecting their privacy, we aren’t adding photos of all of them. But we are proud of all of them and love spending time all together!
