Experience Living at Sandpiper Ridge

Sandpiper Ridge, at Port Howe Nova Scotia, combines all the attractions of peaceful private oceanfront living with the amenities of a settled well-established community just minutes away.

The 180-acre development – with lots averaging 1.7 acres and featuring 200-foot frontages - is set on a gently-rolling point of land washed by the River Phillip, Toney Bay, and the Northumberland Strait. All lots have deeded beach access. Thanks to the Gulf Stream, the water offers the warmest sea-bathing north of the Carolinas. Toney Bay provides a sheltered shallow ocean playground for children and adults alike, and deep-water moorings are possible in the River Phillip and at the Pugwash Marina not far down the coast.

At home, you will share with sandpipers, herons, ducks, seals, and osprey the unique tranquility that only oceanfront living can provide. In the nearby village of Pugwash you can take advantage of a charming and long-established tourist community. World-famous Seagull Pewter calls Pugwash home. The street signs are in English and Gaelic in recognition of the village’s strong Scottish ties; and Pugwash is the proud home of the Pugwash Peace Conferences on nuclear disarmament, initiated in the 1950s by Cyrus Eaton, Albert Einstein, and Bertrand Russell.

Whether you choose it as a summer retreat or the site of a year-round dream-home, Sandpiper Ridge is easily connected with the world beyond. Halifax International Airport is a two-hour drive, and Moncton and Charlottetown are only ninety minutes away.
