North Hills Museum is a house-museum located in Granville Ferry, Nova Scotia, Canada. It is a neoclassical house built around 1764 and is one of the oldest wood framed buildings in Canada. It was bought in 1784 by the Ambermans, a Loyalist family from New York State, who owned the house for six generations. In 1964, it was purchased by Robert Patterson, an antique collector who restored the house to an 18th century appearance. Upon his death in 1974, he willed the house to the Province of Nova Scotia.
The house is owned by the Nova Scotia Museum and administered by the Annapolis Heritage Society.
