Rockbound – an architectural marvel by the renowned Omar Gandhi. This spectacular, custom-designed home is nestled seamlessly into the rugged, untouched coastline of St. Margaret’s Bay, offering unobstructed views of the iconic Peggy’s Cove lighthouse and the open Atlantic. Rockbound was designed to blend into its surroundings to be as unobtrusive as possible, respecting the natural environment. Rockbound, aptly named, is firmly anchored into the underlying bedrock, embracing contemplations of stability and resilience, built with the fortitude to withstand the harshness of the Maritime climate. While the rugged exterior of the structure plays against a more than equal environment, armoured in weathered Cedar, Shou Sugi Ban Cedar and Corten Steel elements, the inside of Rockbound offers a soft, comfortable and relaxed vibe as a counterbalance, creating a cozy yet modern refuge. Upon arrival, the home’s entrance creates an intentional sense of shelter, obscuring the dramatic views of the Atlantic, which are ultimately revealed in breathtaking clarity through floor-to-ceiling windows upon entering the main living space. The home consists of two distinct volumes, one layered above the other, with the upper volume seemingly hovering above the sea. The large outdoor decks provide shelter from the elements, extending the outdoor season while offering complete privacy. Rockbound was designed to equally enjoy calm, sunny summer afternoons as much as the wild winter storms for which the Canadian Maritimes are known. Rockbound’s interior is characterized by contemporary design, which embraces elegant functionality and simplicity. Soft, natural sand and rock tones, as well as the use of white oak in custom cabinetry and flooring, provide a serene, warm, organic atmosphere to relax in. Rockbound is not just a home but a sanctuary where the raw beauty and power of nature converge. Viewings by appointment only.More details
