Luxury Oceanfront Estate — Manuels, CBS
Overview
Some properties are rare. This one is singular.
Tucked behind an electronic privacy gate on a wooded peninsula in the prestigious Manuels area of Conception Bay South, 51 Windy Cove Lane is an oceanfront estate of a calibre seldom seen in Atlantic Canada — let alone Newfoundland. Set on 13 private acres with 2,000 linear feet of shoreline directly adjacent to the Royal Newfoundland Yacht Club, this is the kind of address you don’t leave.
The Residence
At 13,000 square feet, the custom-built home is constructed to premium standards with brick, cedar shakes, and locally-sourced Bell Island stone. Inside, 10-foot ceilings, custom millwork, and in-floor heating set a tone of refined warmth throughout the formal principal rooms — designed with entertaining in mind.
The principal suite is a destination in itself: panoramic ocean views over Conception Bay, dual fireplaces, custom soaking tubs, a walk-in closet, and a private balcony overlooking the manicured gardens. Two additional bedrooms carry private ensuites, and six fireplaces distributed throughout the home ensure every space feels anchored.

A Note for Buyers
As a resale property, 51 Windy Cove Lane is not subject to HST — a meaningful advantage for luxury buyers. Newfoundland and Labrador also has no provincial land transfer tax, keeping your closing costs lean compared to a comparable purchase in Ontario or BC. Standard closing costs will include legal fees, so engaging a real estate lawyer early in the process is recommended.
