Nestled along the scenic shores of Mahone Bay, the Village of Chester offers its residents a delightful blend of coastal charm and community warmth. Known for its well-preserved historic architecture, Chester exudes a timeless elegance that reflects its rich seafaring heritage. Chester Race Week, an annual sailing competition, best demonstrates the village’s cultural connection to saltwater.
Life in Chester is marked by a relaxed, coastal pace, where the soothing presence of the bay and the picturesque waterfront contribute to a tranquil living experience. Schools, an arena, and restaurants are just a few of the amenities residents depend on. Locals also enjoy exploring the town's vibrant arts scene, visiting local boutiques and galleries, partaking in community events that bring neighbours together, and swimming in the lido pool, right at the water’s edge.
With access to sailing and water activities, as well as parks and green spaces, Chester provides a coastal haven for those seeking a small town lifestyle with all the conveniences and amenities a family needs.
