There’s nothing like a stunning view to make a home feel truly magical and with more than 800 feet of direct ocean frontage this property is outstanding in every way.
Drive down the sweeping private road and be transported to a world of luxury and relaxation.
Located on a five-acre estate-like property, Ovens Reef House offers privacy yet is only minutes from spectacular sand beaches and the towns of Lunenburg and Mahone Bay.
The Main House
This house is a 2,500 sq. ft. cape on the outside and Malibu beach house on the inside. It’s
stylish and luxurious with custom-made furniture and all the the amenities one expects from a
quality vacation rental. Its open-plan and wall of windows on the ocean side has been designed to let the outdoors in and take advantage of the breathtaking views out to the open ocean.
The show-stopping gourmet kitchen is every foodie’s dream. Polished concrete floors and
counters plus seating for four at the breakfast bar anchor the space. There is a six-burner Wolf gas cooktop, two wall ovens which offer convection cooking, a microwave, stand-alone fridge and freezer and, of course, a dishwasher. A large walk-in pantry contains cookware, dishes, and a variety of small appliances. Guests who like to keep it simple will find a propane barbeque on the patio.
The main level features a stylish Italian glass dining table with seating for eight. As well, there is plenty of comfortable seating in the study and living areas - all with ocean views. A
wood-burning fireplace, a 50-inch flat screen television with surround sound and well-stocked
bookshelves add to our guests’ enjoyment.
Rounding off the main level are a two-piece powder room and a mud room featuring a full-size washer and dryer.
Upstairs there are two large bedrooms. The master features a king bed, a wall of custom built-in storage units and spectacular ocean views from its elevated position. The freshly painted second bedroom has a queen bed offers plenty of storage too. All beds come with comfy mattresses and pillows, as well as quality cotton sheets to ensure a restful night’s sleep.
The two bedrooms share a spa bathroom with polished concrete floors and counter. There’s a
deep soaker tub offering panoramic views out to the open Atlantic as well as a large walk-in
rain-head shower.
Outside, the large deck is perfect for relaxing and enjoying the everchanging ocean. The teak
table seats six and is perfect for alfresco dining.
The Cottage
Next to the main house is the cottage. Loaded with charm, it more closely resembles a typical
Nova Scotia beach cottage. But, with some big differences.
This pristine little gem shares the same spectacular views as the larger home and has been
finished with the same care and attention to detail.
The main level is open-plan with a small but functional kitchenette. Not fancy, it’s perfect for
preparing morning coffee, light meals and snacks.
The living area has a double pull-out sofa bed and seating for two more. As in the main house, large windows bring the ocean views in. Completing the main floor, there’s a large bathroom
with a custom travertine marble shower.
Up the stairs, a large bedroom with a king bed and gigantic reading chair offers the perfect
escape. Writers and dreamers will love the huge desk facing out to sea.
Decks along two sides of the house are perfect for lounging and enjoying the fresh ocean air.
The property enjoys amazing panoramic ocean views, however it is on the top of a cliff and the waterfront is not accessible from the property. There are some lovely beaches nearby and the Ovens Park is just a short drive away.
