Whether you're seeking a one-of-a-kind bed & breakfast, a distinctive Airbnb, or simply a unique piece of Nova Scotian history to call home, the iconic Fraser Octagon House presents a rare and remarkable opportunity. Built in 1857 and designated as a provincial heritage property, this is the last known residential octagonal home in Nova Scotia. Bursting with historical charm, the home retains its original trim, exterior façade, and period details, while thoughtfully updated to meet modern needs. This 1.5-storey, 1900 sq. ft. cedar-shingled residence features 4 spacious bedrooms (with potential for a 5th), two full bathrooms, and a separate outside staircase and entrance to the second level—ideal for guest accommodations or income potential. The home has seen numerous upgrades over the years, including updates to the roof, plumbing, electrical, and windows. Most recently, it received a full kitchen renovation featuring Martha Stewart cabinetry and top-of-the-line appliances, along with updated engineered hardwood flooring on much of the main level, as well as two ductless heat pumps. Set on a ¼ acre corner lot in the vibrant seaside village of Tatamagouche, the home is within walking distance to shops, restaurants, schools, and essential services. You’ll also be moments from beautiful beaches, wineries, ski hills, golf courses—including the world-renowned Fox Harb’r—and scenic walking trails like the Butter Trail and Trans Canada Trail. Rich in culture, history, and community spirit, Tatamagouche offers an unmatched lifestyle on Nova Scotia’s North Shore. The home has been pre-inspected and the fireplace is WETT certified, for your peace of mind, and indoor and outdoor furnishings are available. Quick closing is possible so don’t miss your chance to own this architectural treasure.
