Prescott House Museum, Historic house museum in Starr's Point, Nova Scotia, Canada

Prescott House Museum is a Georgian-style residence in Starr's Point, Nova Scotia, built between 1812 and 1816 by Charles Ramage Prescott as the centrepiece of his estate, Acacia Grove. The fully restored rooms show both the Georgian period of Prescott's time and the later era of the 1930s and 1940s when the Prescott sisters restored the house. The interior preserves the original layout and period furnishings.

Charles Ramage Prescott built the estate between 1812 and 1816 as both a residence and a testing ground for agricultural innovations. His work with apple varieties and modern farming techniques made it a center for rural advancement in the region.

The house shows how prosperous families in Nova Scotia lived during the 1800s through family portraits, hand-stitched samplers, and period decorative items that reveal domestic tastes and daily customs.

The museum closed permanently on 20 February 2026, when the provincial government shut it along with 11 other Nova Scotia Museum sites, so the house and its artifact collection are not open to visitors. No decision has been announced on the disposal of the building or its contents. The property stands in Starr's Point, Kings County, and can be viewed from the road.

In 1931 the house was rescued from decay when Mary Allison Prescott, a great-granddaughter of the original builder, began restoring it alongside her sisters. Their dedication preserved the property and returned it to its original condition for visitors to experience today.
