Description
The journey to East River Residence is as enchanting as the destination itself. Meandering down a private forested driveway, the natural terrain creates an intentional sense of anticipation before the Atlantic Ocean unveils itself in breathtaking clarity. Suspended elegantly across a natural valley, the architecture creates immediate viewplanes upon arrival, allowing the open waterfront to be seen both directly through the home's floor-to-ceiling glass and beneath the floating main living area. Spanning across 11.24 acres with 590 feet of ocean frontage, this custom 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom contemporary residence by Omar Gandhi Architects offers a light-filled living space with incredible sights of the sparkling Atlantic waters. White cedar siding that silvers naturally over time pairs with a standing-seam steel roof and high-performance Marvin window walls. Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings over maple floors and a European-inspired kitchen frame an atmosphere of relaxed, organic sophistication. The spacious kitchen features high-end appliances, beautiful ash cabinetry, textured microcement walls and an expansive live-edge countertop island. The elevated glass-railed oceanfront deck transitions seamlessly down steel stairs and the boardwalk through natural granite stone and trees to the expansive oceanfront enhanced with a 14’ wide wharf and a Nordic barrel sauna on the water’s edge. Beyond its privacy, East River Residence commands a coveted South Shore location. Positioned in East River Point, the property sits moments from the coastal charm, world-class sailing, and golf courses of Chester and Hubbards, pristine white sand beaches, and the scenic Rails to Trails network. With Tantallon’s modern conveniences nearby and an easy drive into Halifax, the home offers an unrivaled union of architectural distinction, coastal seclusion, and effortless regional access.
