About this property
Private Retreat on the world famous Bay of Fundy, Nova Scotia
Get up close to nature and spectacular views at this stylish, new oceanfront home. "Tidal Terrace" stands tall, overlooking the rocky shore and the world's highest tides. Surrounded by waterfalls, hiking trails, bald eagles and stunning sunrises and sunsets, there's so much to discover. This four season, contemporary styled home is located just a short drive to local wineries, craft breweries, golf courses, and some of the best restaurants in Nova Scotia.
This vacation home was custom designed and built in 2023. The main floor is bright with a soaring wall of windows to maximize the breathtaking views. The open concept modern kitchen is fully equipped with stainless steel appliances. The large island is great for gathering and connecting with family and friends. The smart TV is installed on a swivel so it can be viewed from the kitchen island or the living room. Warm up and relax by the European designed wood stove.
The second floor has a primary bedroom with a king size bed, floor to ceiling windows, and room darkening curtains. Wake up to the sound of the lapping waves and a view like you're on the water.
The main bathroom has a rainfall shower with body jets and a Japanese inspired toilet/bidet.
The third floor is the loft which can be converted to a bedroom with a king size bed or 2 twin beds. This space has two 9 foot sliding doors that walk out onto the rooftop terrace complete with 4 luxurious lounge chairs. There is also a small office space on the third floor.

About the host

I was born and raised in Lower Wedgeport, NS and I love this beautiful province!
I love running, hiking and martial arts. Also cooking, gardening, and traveling. I'm excited to be a host so I can share my love for Nova Scotia Canada!

Why they chose this property
On our first visit to the quaint village of Baxter's Harbour, we were driving down Baxter Harbour Road and were struck by the breathtaking view of Cape Split and the stunning 50 foot tall Baxter Harbour falls. A few years later we were fortunate to become part of this friendly community. And with Black Hole Falls right next to us, we knew we had found our dream property.
The new "Saltair Nordic Spa and Wellness" is 5 km away and is a beautiful place to unwind and restore. www.saltairnordic.ca
And there is so much to do nearby! We are within 30 minutes drive to Nova Scotia Wine Country, Craft breweries, arts and cultural events, Acadia University, farmer's markets, and some of the best restaurants in the province. For more adventure, ski the slopes of Martock, play some golf or hike Cape Split.

What makes this property unique
"Tidal Terrace" stands tall on the shore of the world's highest tides. While staying here, you will discover total privacy while surrounding yourself with nature. The night sky is perfect for stargazing and at times, you may even view the northern lights.

The main bathroom has a rainfall shower with body jets and a Japanese inspired toilet/bidet.
The third floor is the loft which can be converted to a bedroom with a king size bed or 2 twin beds (or can be set up as a sitting area). This space has two 9 foot sliding doors that walk out onto the rooftop terrace complete with 4 luxurious lounge chairs. There is also a small office space on the third floor.
A Bald Eagle that we have named "Bart" usually does his daily fly by. He often perches on a tree next to the cottage as he is waiting to dive into the water for fish.
There is an abundance of sea life which can be viewed (from time to time) from our cottage. Examples include Ocean Sunfish, which is one of the largest bony fish in the world and has a dorsal fin similar to a shark. Also Seals and Atlantic Striped Bass, which are popular catches for local fisherman.
