YOUR NEW ANCESTRAL HOME?
This distinguished stone house adjoins†an 18-hole golf course†in the historic town of Annapolis Royal.

The result is a one-off landmark. The present owners - only the third -†recently undertook a marathon, 7-year modernisation from the ground up, not merely†respecting, but enhancing the original owner's design.

WINTER IS COMING: 10 Steps to Prepare Your Home for the Winter
As summer fades and the chilly winds of winter approach, it’s time to ensure your home is ready for the cold months ahead. Here are 10 steps to prepare your home for winter:
Step 1: Clean and Check the Ventilation System
Ensure your ventilation system is clean and functioning efficiently. Replace filters and schedule a professional inspection to keep your indoor air quality high and lower heating cost.
Step 2: Insulate Doors and Windows
Inspect and seal any drafts around doors and windows. Use weather stripping or caulk to prevent heat loss and keep your home cozy.
Step 3: Check Your Thermostat
Test your thermostat to ensure it's working correctly. Consider upgrading to a programmable or smart thermostat for better energy efficiency and comfort.
Step 4: Clear the Yard
Remove leaves, branches, and debris from your yard. Trim back any overgrown plants to prevent damage during winter storms.
Step 5: Protect Your Outdoor Pipes
Insulate outdoor pipes to prevent the freezing and or bursting of pipes, especially in unheated areas.
Step 6: Unclog Your Gutters
Clean out gutters and downspouts to ensure that water can flow freely to protect your roof and foundation.
Step 7: Have a Roof Inspection
Check for damaged shingles or leaks. A professional roof inspection can help you address issues before they worsen.
Step 8: Service Your Furnace
Schedule a furnace check-up to ensure it’s working efficiently.
Step 9: Always Be Aware of Potential Fire Hazards
Inspect smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and fire extinguishers. Keep flammable materials away from heat sources and have a fire escape plan in place.
Step 10: Clean and Store Outdoor Furniture
Clean and store any outdoor furniture to protect it from the elements. Consider using protective covers for items that will remain outside.
