Property Description

Journey back in time through the stone gateposts of Mount Clements. Wind your way beneath a canopy of flowering catalpa, linden, oak, pine, maple, beech and butternut trees; proud sentinels of the Gilded Age when the property was developed (c. 1900) for a prominent Nova Scotia dignitary. The spirit of the property has been deftly re-claimed for the 21st century; now a bespoke year round estate on 4.75 acres you'll find a charming Craftsman-inspired 2 bed/1.5 bath home built around the original coach house, designed for comfort and efficiency. Three principal rooms on the main with high ceilings, wood floors, large windows, a sunny kitchen/dining area with a window seat, and most rooms offering a glimpse of nearby Annapolis Basin. Known for its extensive gardens and grounds, Mount Clements is accented with mock orange, lilac, laburnum, and some of the oldest rhododendrons in the province. The original greenhouse structure is still in use and houses a vintage grapevine. Delightful original features include the water pipes that face the potting benches and link to a potbelly stove. Adjacent to the house is a restored garage with chicken coop. A short stroll to the East leads to a fairy-tale cottage; a lovely place for guests and a respite for the creative mind. Nearby is a large workshop, recently used for crafting traditional wooden boats. System upgrades in the last 5 years include a new roof for home, cottage and garage, a new well pump and hot water tank, upgraded foundational insulation and a new septic system. Please request the features document. Mount Clements was originally built as a peaceful retreat for Robert E. Harris, Chief Justice of Nova Scotia between 1918 and 1931. Situated atop a knoll well hidden from the road, his envisioned sanctuary continues to serve as a private, tranquil, self-contained haven. Located just 6 minutes from Annapolis Royal & near the Upper Clements Trails, a recreation area for hiking, biking, and cross country skiing. (id:31684)
