For over half a century, Annas Place has been a treasured family home on the shores of St. Margarets Bay. Set across two adjoining parcels totaling approximately 2.4 acres, it is a property that has remained remarkably true to itself: private, beautifully treed and centred around an extraordinary stretch of oceanfront. The house carries that same sense of continuity. Warm wood interiors, original details and rooms largely preserved from the 1960's speak quietly to decades of summers spent here. There is an authenticity to it that feels increasingly rare. Nothing has been overly polished or reinvented. It remains, quite simply, a much-loved place by the sea. Beyond the house, the land becomes the story. Mature trees create privacy from the road and frame broad lawns as they make their way toward the water. From here, the view opens across St. Margarets Bay, with the changing light, passing boats and movement of the water becoming part of the rhythm of the property. At the shoreline, a substantial stone breakwater reaches into the bay, creating a sheltered edge to the waterfront and giving Annas Place a character all its own. It is an exceptional feature, one that speaks to the history of the property and to a time when waterfronts such as this were shaped very differently than they are today. There is room here to imagine what comes next without diminishing what already exists. The house can continue to be enjoyed for what it has always been: an uncomplicated home where doors are left open, meals move outside and days tend to revolve around the water. Or, in time, the setting and combined acreage offer an extraordinary canvas for a new interpretation of life on the Bay. (id:13843)
