Located in Hubbards - just 35 minutes from Halifax, and 15 minutes from Tantallon - my forest house is the perfect home base for remote working or a coastal beach holiday.

The house itself is one of 3 on a private forested road. The property borders the popular rail trail, where you can walk or bike to grocery stores and other amenities. (bike rentals available in the area).

Open concept living room & kitchen, with large L-shaped couch & apapasan chair for lounging. Bonus room with laundry, desk, skylights & hammock.

Large loft master bedroom with big south-facing windows. With pillowtop king size bed and lots of storage for personal items. AC/heat unit in bedroom for maximum comfort.

Second bedroom is located below the loft, with direct access to lower level of deck. This room has lots of windows for natural bright light, and beautiful forest views

Great starting point for days spent exploring Nova Scotia's South Shore coastline, or for beach bumming all day in the summer (just one kilometer from 2 great beaches!).

With 2 levels of front decks, there is plenty of outdoor space to lounge in comfort with privacy.

You'll be surrounded by beautiful gardens and tall Nova Scotia forest.

Situated along the beautiful south shore of Nova Scotia, the 'Lighthouse Route' is one of the most scenic drives along the coast. Driving in either direction will give you beautiful winding country roads, with miles of Atlantic Ocean at your side. Simply breathtaking.

This is a place to relax, feel comfortable as though you were home.. enjoy the magic of the gardens and nature at it's finest.

Ideal for a romantic couples getaway or a family beach vacation - for those who want a central home base near the city, but nestled in nature.

    Like in the pictures, nice little nest in the forest, expect daily visits from a couple of blue jays (not the players), well equipped, including charcoal bbq (no fire inside) and nice bathroom. The 2 rooms are bright and the wifi allowed for worfing from home. The beach is 2 minutes away, Halifax a 35 minute ride. We stayed 1 month and wished it would last longer. If you plan to spend a lot of time outside the house in the garden, just be mindful the highway is close and can be noisy although you don't hear it from inside. It was a great stay and Daniela was prompt to answer.
