Lawrencetown House / Bishop McDowell

Situated in a quiet coastal community on the Eastern Shore of Nova Scotia, the house is set against a dramatic coastal backdrop. Overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, the site extends southeast across a diverse wetland of grasses, ponds, and fir trees. A rugged rocky shoreline borders the site to the west. The area is known for its scenic white sand beaches and provincial parks and is a favorite among surf enthusiasts.
