Welcome to Tribune Close

Land of abundant possibilities offering a unique Nova Scotia lifestyle as limitless as it's ocean horizon.

3 Tribune Head Lane is for sale. $829,000 CAD.

Tribune Close is a beautiful ocean-front property in Herring Cove, Nova Scotia (civic number 3 Tribune Head Lane), accessed from a private road. It faces the historical ocean site of Tribune Head where in 1797 the vessel “La Tribune” founded on the rocks and sank with significant loss of life, much about of which has been written by historians and scuba divers.

This property has a driveway in place, municipal water and sewer lines installed, and is the subject of architecturally designed home plans with a building permit already issued by Halifax regional Municipality. It is “shovel ready” to build.

This secluded property is close to Halifax yet offers a serene setting where one can hear the waves breaking, watch the lobster boats hauling up their traps and sailboats or cruise ships glide by.

Herring Cove, PID 40000218

This gently sloping property evokes an isolated coziness as it is nestled into the protective cove of Tribune Head. The views focus on this glorious rock face which provides shelter from the north winds, reflects light and warmth from the sun and is a constant source of natural beauty. The wide atlantic ocean, with its views of ships and seabirds, is the backdrop for Tribune Head.

The landscape of this property is primarily evergreen and deciduous trees. If you choose you can meander through a tree lined path or walk the driveway to the beginning of ocean views.

The contemporary designed home plans maximizes views with two stories plus an upper loft, floor to ceiling windows facing the ocean and Tribune Head. The entrance is on the second floor with surrounding decks. The upper level loft has has a master bedroom, bathroom and a loft office or den. The lower floor has an above ground walkout on to paths to the ocean.

There are also plans for a one-story studio building with, again, a spectacular view of Tribune Head.

The property also has a “flag” portion fronting on Village road. It is filled with wild flowers, specialty trees and has fenced access for additional vehicle or trailer parking. A small community lending library also makes its home here.

Nestled on the point sit Adirondack chairs to relax in while capturing the sights and sounds of this magical place.
