There are oceanfront homes—and then there’s 135 Borgels Shore Drive, where magic truly lives by the sea. Tucked into one of Nova Scotia’s sought after tightly knit coastal communities, this property sits quietly along the protected waters of Chester Basin, offering 132 feet of shoreline, warm waters and views that stretch beyond the everyday. Here, neighbours aren’t just nearby they’re part of a small circle of 12 who share a love of privacy, nature and the rhythm of life by the ocean. There’s no traffic, no noise—just the sound of waves lapping on shore, seabirds and the occasional sail gliding past. Whether as a year-round retreat or a storybook cottage escape, this home feels like the magic we need in our lives. Inside, light pours through soaring cathedral windows that frame the oceanfront views from nearly every room. The open-concept main floor was designed for connection, whether intimate date night or large family gatherings, with warm cherry hardwood underfoot, a propane “wood” stove for cozy nights and a kitchen that lets the cook be part of all the action - and the views! French doors lead to the wide composite deck overlooking your own protected shore, stairs to a little beach nook and wharf—perfect for a morning swim, a paddle, or a sail to the Village of Chester just a few coves away. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a hideaway with a 5 piece ensuite and bonus space for a reading loft or airy Yoga space. The lower walkout level offers room for family, hobbies or extra guests with 2 large spaces to make your own. With efficient geothermal comfort, a detached heated double garage and shared ownership of surrounding 4+ acres preserving your privacy, this property is as practical as it is magical. Moments from Gold River Marina, minutes to Chester, and less than an hour to Halifax—this is coastal living, reimagined and waiting for your own personal touch.
