Sailor's Delight - Private, Park-Like Estate

At the private, resort-style estate known as Scallop Bay, islands dot the horizon as far as the eye can see, all framed by 1,200 feet of protected shoreline. More than a home, life here is a seamless rhythm of resort-style relaxation and absolute privacy, hidden entirely from the outside world. Your day begins in the main-floor primary suite, where beautiful views are enjoyed directly from bed as the morning sun rises over the Atlantic ocean. Step onto a beautiful deck with glass rails to enjoy a quiet coffee as the tide changes. From there, the day unfolds at your own pace. Scallop Bay is uniquely designed for both independent passions and effortless hosting. While you spend a quiet afternoon tinkering at the workbench in the multi-car carrage house, family or weekend guests can move at their own leisure in the self-sufficient two-bedroom guest suite above. Wander the park-like grounds, passing manicured gardens on your way to the waterfront. Spend the afternoon sailing the pristine waters of Mahone Bay right from your private 100-foot wharf, or enjoy a relaxing swim in the heated oceanside pool, followed by a soak in the hot tub. As evening approaches, gather everyone for a cocktail at the lower-level wet bar and games room before taking a scenic 15-minute drive into Chester or Mahone Bay for dinner. You’ll return to a sanctuary of complete stillness, perhaps wrapping up the night watching the moon reflect off the water from the gazebo on the point of your private peninsula. Located just an hour from Halifax, Scallop Bay provides a rare, deeply restorative lifestyle where you never have to leave home and are still only 15 minutes to all amenities.
