    What's special

    Historic Cape Cod Charm with Ocean Views – Indian Harbour, Nova Scotia. Step back in time and embrace the opportunity to own a piece of Nova Scotia’s early history. Built in 1790 by Irish settler John Ormsby and thoughtfully rebuilt in 1802, this charming Cape Cod home is one of the first in the Indian Harbour area. Nestled on picturesque Paddy's Head Road, just moments from world-renowned Peggy’s Cove, this property blends timeless character with breathtaking coastal beauty. Inside, you’ll find three spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms, and original features such as exposed wooden beams, hardwood floors, and period trim—preserving the craftsmanship of centuries past. The home invites you to move in as-is or bring your own vision to life with thoughtful updates and renovations. Set on a generous parcel with sweeping views of the Atlantic, this property offers a rare chance to build your own private wharf with deep-water anchorage—perfect for boating enthusiasts or those seeking a tranquil waterfront lifestyle. Wake each day to the sound of the sea and end it with sunsets from your private oasis. Two outbuildings provide excellent potential for conversion into guest cottages, studios, or rental suites, creating added value and flexibility. Whether you're a heritage home lover, an investor, or simply searching for a serene coastal retreat, this unique property offers many possibilities and an unmatched setting in beautiful Indian Harbour.
