Originally built in 1935, this refurbished Nova Scotia estate is on the market for $4.8 million, complete with its own apple orchard and 21 distinct rooms:
Annapolis Royal is a rustic Nova Scotia town with a population of just 460 people. Back in the 1920s, it was home to Edwin Stanton Fickes, a steel industrialist based in Pittsburgh, who commissioned the construction of a home in 1929. The building, which took six years to complete, sits on a 383-acre estate near the Annapolis River. Over the years, the old-fashioned five-bedroom property has received some contemporary upgrades and is currently on the market for $4.8 million.
The second-floor primary bedroom includes a sitting room, a dressing room and an electric Dimplex fireplace. In the kitchen are more built-in bookshelves. The living room features a Belgian STUV fireplace insert, Nova Scotia’s first. It took two painters 18 months and 60 unique colours to dress each of the 21 distinct rooms.
Speaking of staircases: the main foyer has a spiralling gem that winds its way to the third floor, home to an attic bedroom for kids outfitted with a bunk bed and a walk-in cedar cabinet.
