Episode Details

Step into history with Nova Scotia’s oldest wooden building—the de Gannes-Cosby House, a 238-year-old National Historic Site in Annapolis Royal now on the market for $495,000. Still lived in non-stop since its construction, this rare gem has witnessed centuries of French and British rule, hosted Acadian settlers, and preserved original post-and-beam framing. With over 20 families calling it home, it’s not just a house—it’s a living archive of North America’s colonial past. The current owner, who inherited it, admits it’s tough to heat and not for everyone—but he’s holding firm, seeking the right buyer who’ll honor its legacy. No offers yet, but interest is growing. This isn’t just real estate—it’s history waiting for its next chapter.
