Situated south of the tennis courts, a short stroll from Mahone Bay’s pretty shops & restaurants, is Hawthorn Hill – Mahone Bay’s premium neighbourhood. Hawthorn Hill is an environmentally responsible neighbourhood designed with a focus on renewable resources, energy efficiency, community and respect for nature and the environment in which we live.  Currently home to 11 high quality custom built homes (with others in the design phase), Hawthorn Hill offers healthy, affordable homesites intended to encourage the construction of energy efficient homes in conjunction with a healthy environment and a healthy lifestyle. Amenities include paved public roads, municipal sewer, protective covenants and 15 acres of green space set aside for Hawthorn Hill owners to enjoy.

Hawthorn Hill is served by paved public roads, municipal sewer system and municipal garbage collection. Electricity lines are in place (each owner connects underground to their home); each owner is responsible for installing their own well – choice of drilled or dug. Protective covenants are in place to safeguard your investment and, prior to building, design/plan approval is required to ensure compliance with the covenants. Owners will join the Homeowners’ Association once formed which will be responsible for the 15 acres of green space and the covenants.
