Stilleven: A Luxury Oceanfront Escape with Panoramic Sea Views

Welcome to Stilleven, a custom-built oceanfront retreat nestled near Rose Bay perched on Nova Scotia’s breathtaking South Shore. This elegant maritime home offers nearly 600 feet of private shoreline and uninterrupted panoramic views of the sea, with sights of Lunenburg, Blue Rocks, and the iconic Bluenose II passing by in season.

There are two more full bathrooms. The fully stocked kitchen, spacious dining area, and open-concept great room create a warm and inviting space, perfect for gatherings or peaceful solitude.

Whether you’re enjoying a morning coffee while watching the sunrise over the Atlantic or unwinding in style after a day of exploring, every detail of Stilleven invites relaxation and rejuvenation. The home is ideally located near pristine beaches like Spindlers, Sand Dollar, and Hirtles, as well as the scenic Gaff Point Hiking Trail, and with charming restaurants, local shops, and farmers markets just a short drive away.

We’re happy to answer any questions to help determine if our space is the right fit for your family.

The most AMAZING stay!

I’ve stayed at a lot of VRBOs and this one was hands down the most amazing property I have been to. It had every amenity possible (you name it, it had it). The outdoor fireplace was a fantastic touch with ample wood stock. It left us not wanting to explore the area as this place had astounding views on its own and the luxury finishes were noted!

Feltzen South Getaway on the water

It was the perfect house for us to relax in…with a well appointed kitchen and comfortable bedrooms…magnificent views of the sunsets and sun rises from the upstairs deck and patios….I loved watching the Bluenose sail out of Lunenburg every day …it was a really lovely comfortable place and a true treat to stay there. I took long walks every day on the quiet road…Thank you for everything.

Of all the places I’ve stayed through VRBO, this may be the very best. A magical, luxurious, and peaceful place surrounded by ocean views and nature. Lori is a fantastic host and has such a sophisticated attention to detail from the linens to the decor to the amenities offered onsite (the Napoleon BBQ is outstanding). Words and photos won’t do Stilleven justice. You have to experience it!

Our stay at Stilleven was a wonderful vacation for our family. Stilleven is a beautiful property. Our host was very easy to communicate with and was prompt in response. Check in was seamless. This beautiful home was the perfect spot for a week with our 3 grown children, son-in-law, and one grandchild. It certainly exceeded our expectations: the view, watching the nearby lobster boats from the windows, nearby hiking, fun on the beach, cozy family time by the fire, cooking in the very well appointed kitchen, easy trips into Lunenburg. While the house has 4 bedrooms and everyone had privacy, it still had a cozy feeling. Icing on the cake: all of the beds were very comfortable,kitchen well appointed for the chefs among us, the spectacular view, the variety of activities in the area had something for everyone in our group, our privacy without neighbors right near by, the ease of driving into Lunenburg for some wonderful restaurants, and our responsive host.

Our time last week at Stilleven was more than just a stay at a very beautiful home. It was an amazing experience. The home’s location on the water offers views of Lunenburg across the bay, the Bluenose as it sails by, and beautiful sunsets. We enjoyed fires under starry skies, and quiet walks along the road for more scenic views. Lunenburg, Mahone Bay, LaHave Island, and several lovely beaches were just a short scenic drive away. You will feel like you have stepped back in time to a simpler, more relaxed, way of life surrounded by beauty.

Magnifique maison dans un site exceptionnel. La vue est époustouflante de toutes les fenêtres! L'arrivée a été facile et la maison était immaculée. On a l'impression d'être les premiers à l'habiter tellement tout est neuf et parfait. La cuisine est impeccable! Grande et pratique. La vaisselle en poterie signée et tous les accessoires fournis sont de grande qualité, Il ne manquait rien
