There are certain addresses that simply sound like they belong on the water.
11 Yacht Club Road is one of them.
Set directly on the shores of Hubbards Bay, this extensively upgraded oceanside property captures everything people dream about when they picture coastal Nova Scotia living. Sailboats drifting across the harbour. Sunsets dancing on the water. Evenings around the fire table after long days on the ocean. The kind of lifestyle that feels like a permanent escape — yet remains only 30 minutes from downtown Halifax.
And in a community like Hubbards, that balance matters. Known for its vibrant marina culture, iconic Shore Club dances, waterfront dining at Tuna Blue and easy access to beaches, farmers markets and boating, Hubbards has long been one of Nova Scotia’s most beloved seaside communities. It offers energy when you want it and peace when you need it. At 11 Yacht Club Road, you experience both.
Main Living Space: Bright, open and renovated
The home itself has undergone substantial modernization over the past three years, blending thoughtful upgrades with the warmth and character expected from an oceanfront retreat. From the moment you step inside, the bay becomes the focal point. A dramatic wall of windows and soaring 20-foot ceilings flood the main living area with natural light while framing panoramic water views from nearly every angle.
The living room is anchored by a WETT-certified wood-burning fireplace, creating an atmosphere that feels equally suited for lively gatherings or quiet winter evenings by the fire.
The recently renovated kitchen was designed with entertaining in mind. Upgraded counters, backsplash, peninsula cabinetry, new appliances and a five-burner gas range create abundant prep and gathering space while maintaining seamless connection to the dining area and outdoor living spaces beyond.
Outside: Where 11 Yacht Club Road truly begins to shine
The wraparound deck with infinity glass railing was designed to maximize both sunshine and scenery throughout the day. Whether you’re hosting friends beneath the covered cook station, grilling fresh local seafood, or enjoying a quiet glass of wine beside the propane fire table, the setting constantly reminds you why waterfront living never goes out of style.
Upstairs: Some of the best views in the home
A loft overlooks the main living space, and provides the perfect spot to read, work remotely, or simply watch boats move through the bay. A sliding barn door allows the space to easily function as additional guest accommodation when needed. The primary suite continues the home’s thoughtful design with two walk-in closets and a beautifully updated ensuite featuring a custom rain shower.
Lower Level: Even more flexibility
With a separate entrance, additional bedroom and ensuite bath, rec room space, office potential and built-in mini bar, the setup lends itself naturally to Airbnb income, visiting guests, or multi-generational living.
Garage: Endless opportunities
Then there’s the garage — and calling it “just a garage” would undersell it entirely.
With its own 200 AMP electrical service, separate meter, compressor and welding hookups, integrated shipping container storage and extensive workspace infrastructure, this detached building creates endless opportunity for hobbyists, entrepreneurs, car enthusiasts or anyone seeking serious functional space alongside their home.
What makes this property particularly compelling is how comprehensively the major systems have already been addressed. From upgraded electrical and plumbing systems to heat pumps, insulation improvements, water treatment upgrades and EV readiness, the heavy lifting has already been done.
The result is a property that delivers the charm and romance of classic Nova Scotia waterfront living without sacrificing the comfort, efficiency and functionality expected from a modern home.
At its heart, 11 Yacht Club Road is about lifestyle.
Morning coffee overlooking the marina. Boats gliding through Hubbards Bay. Bonfires after beach days. Quiet winter storms viewed from beside the fire. Summer evenings on the deck long after the sun goes down.
It’s the kind of property that doesn’t simply offer a place to live. It offers a way to live.

Hornes Road delivers a lifestyle that’s both convenient and surprisingly well-rounded for the price point. You’re a short commute into Dartmouth, or just a quick 10-minute drive to the Woodside Ferry Terminal—an easy, scenic ride across the harbour into Halifax that turns your daily commute into something you might actually enjoy. You’re also positioned to take full advantage of the outdoors, with Rainbow Haven Beach, Lawrencetown Beach, and the Salt Marsh Trail all close by—perfect for weekends that don’t require much planning. What really sets this property apart, though, is the value. In a price range where much of HRM leans toward semi-detached homes, Eastern Passage still offers the opportunity for a fully detached property on a generous, fully fenced 6,000 sq. ft. lot. There’s space here to actually use with a large private deck and the potential for adding a hot tub, a pool, or creating the garden you’ve been thinking about. The home itself has seen meaningful updates, including fresh paint, appliances, and a refreshed kitchen. The living area is bright and inviting, anchored by a clean feature wall that gives the space some character. Upstairs, the layout offers flexibility. Two large bedrooms could easily be reconfigured to create a third if needed, while the main bathroom is larger than you’d expect—complete with a walk-in closet and enough space to accommodate a future double vanity or a separate tub and shower setup. This is one of those opportunities that’s getting harder to find—affordability without having to compromise on space, privacy, or long-term potential. If you’ve been waiting for something like this in Eastern Passage, it’s worth a closer look.
