| Overview: |
This is a 38 acre parcel of land on the Atlantic Ocean with a long crescent beach, a view of St. Peter’s Island, power and a shopping town less than 20 minutes away. The sea front is a cliff, with meadows and pockets of firs that gradually combine to a solid forest. Over 1200 feet of waterfront, with plenty of depth to this most unusual acreage suggests a private compound insulated forever from intrusions and unwanted noise. Sea breezes and a dawn to dusk view over the Atlantic make this a very special property.
Note: WATERFRONTAGE MEASURES APPROXIMATELY 1200'

Comment: |
A large acreage with over 1200 feet of Atlantic shoreline is not an easy acquisition these days, even in Cape Breton. Such a property that also has outstanding natural beauty, buildable heights of land overlooking the water, a crescent sandy beach, nearby services and privacy is a scarce commodity indeed. The understandable temptation with a property like this one is to subdivide it and sell it for the maximum the market will bear. The future owner of this large parcel will recognize this intrinsic value and appreciate the opportunity to acquire the acreage whole and intact.
