About this property

The Chester House, oceanside in the village, private wharf

A Beautiful space in a Remarkable place.

This home is thoughtfully designed and curated by Suzanne.
With 3 bedrooms accommodating up to 6 guests, a spacious living room, large chef's kitchen and a separate dining area, it's a perfect place to gather.
Relax indoors or enjoy the surround patio, a swim off the wharf, a game of croquet on the lawn, or a nap in the hammock chair.or a nap in the hammock chair.
The house is located on a quiet road facing west over Chester's front harbour - an easy and beautiful 10 minute stroll around the harbour into the heart of the village.
Chester is brimming with charm, sailing heritage and things to see and do. Explore the galleries and shops, check out the great restaurants, see a play, discover island beaches, hit the oceanside links, pamper yourself at the Sensea Spa or just kick back with a beverage and enjoy the view.

Also, easily check out Halifax and the south shore sites of Mahone Bay and Lunenburg (all within 40 minutes).

Girls Weekend Getaway

Myself and 4 friends planned a weekend getaway and chose Chester, NS. Some of us had been to the area before and loved it, plus we wanted to visit the Sensea Spa. We were so fortunate to find the Chester House. It is so gorgeous and Peter & Suzanne were amazing hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, especially sitting on the private dock in the mornings. The view of the harbour is breathtaking. Thank you! We will be back!
Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024
