Where history meets coastal soul — Welcome to Riverport, a close-knit and proud coastal community built on generations of trust and storytelling. Perched proudly in the heart of this seaside village is this grand sea captain's house nationally featured in Canada's Macleans Magazine and on the design site Apartment Therapy. With 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, it's a rare blend of storied past and modern comfort. Originally built over a century ago by Victorian-era sea captain Edwin Backman—who famously sailed salt cod south and rum back north—this home is steeped in lore, yet wonderfully livable, rock-solid, and exceptionally maintained. Original wood floors, vintage trim, and many restored antique light fixtures nod to its heritage, while a beautifully updated kitchen—with propane stove and center island—grounds the home in today's lifestyle. Filled with light and plenty of space for everyone, the third floor offers a creative studio space, a rec room, and a cedar closet and bathtub with an ocean view, all kissed by salt air that flows naturally through every room—no AC required. Outdoors, the charm continues. From the back patio perfect for gathering to the lush garden, barn, and private waterfront access, it's a home that embraces entertaining and its exceptional setting. With solar panels in place, the future here is as bright as its storied past. Adventure to sandy beaches and forested hiking trails within minutes, or hop the nearby LaHave Ferry. The UNESCO Town of Lunenburg is just minutes away—but once you're here, you may never want to leave. Historic soul. Modern ease. Coastal life—perfectly captured.
