Description of the home we are offering for exchange
My Beautiful home is on 6 acres with wooded areas plus gardens & pond on private lakefront property with hot tub overlooking gardens and lake. The home and property provide a quite, private place to relax after a day of touring, or it can be your vacation destination right here. I now have a finished loft over the garage with large bedroom and bathroom with shower allowing for non- simultaneous exchange.
I am located on the beautiful south shore of Nova Scotia. My location is within easy driving distance to many charming towns including the UNESCO world heritage town of Lunenburg. Beautiful beaches and coastline to explore as well as provincial and national parks.

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
My neighborhood is situated on a beautiful lake approximately 7 km from the town of Bridgewater. It is considered rural but yet a very short distance to town. The neighborhood is not large and very private. We know all of the people in our neighborhood many of whom are good friends, we all watch out for one another. The lake is peaceful with little motor boat activity but especially good for canoe and kayak activity. The lake is great for swimming, fairly shallow for several meters until it drops off therefore a lovely lakefront for children but yet a good swim for adults further out. The lake becomes pleasantly warm by August. There is also wonderful bird life on the lake and in the garden. There are abike trails just a few steps from our property that can take you for kilometers through lovely wooded nature or in another direction to town. Our gardens provide a beautiful sanctuary for relaxing after a busy day of sightseeing or a place to relax with a good book.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
From my home there is access to a wide walking trail appropriate for walking to enjoy nature, biking, crosscountry skiing, snow shoeing, four wheeling or ski-dooing. The trail is connected to other communities along the south shore. I am a short drive from the UNESCO town of Lunenburg with its beautiful harbour and colorful town. It also boast many excellent restaurants. Other towns to visit on the beautiful south shore includes Mahone Bay, Chester, Liverpool to name a few. Within minutes you can drive to beautiful long beaches often very private and unpopulated. It is also a surfers haven on many of our coastal beaches. You will find national and provincial parks only a short drive from my home. If you want the excitement of a bigger city, Halifax is only an hours drive with all the museums, restaurants, live theater, and all a large city has to offer. Halifax is a beautiful waterfront city to explore.
