Cape Breton Estates: Land of the Golden Arms

This appealing seaside residence was remodeled by a chef and a shipwright. They created a very comfortable and spacious living area with charm to spare. There is a professional style kitchen laid out for a maximum view over the harbour and plenty of work space. The front rooms are tastefully decorated, which the high ceilings enhance giving the rooms a feeling of an earlier age and decorum. The rear garden over looks the harbour and offers space for the gardener

If you are used to a penthouse view of the world, and long for a get-away hilltop perspective that exceeds city images - Campbellton Heights provides it. High above Inverness, the inspiring view from this hill top spans the vista of the Gulf of St. Lawrence - on a clear day all the way to Prince Edward Island. With daylight one can also see from Cape Mabou to Margaree Harbour while at night the ferry lights from the mainland to PEI are easily visible

The combination of ocean front, view and acreage in this property is compelling, but when one factors in the location and the park-like appearance of this carefully collected six lots as one lovely parcel - the result commands attention. Overlooking the protected waters off of D’Escousse and Martinique, one can easily visualize either a compact and efficient development, or a convenient and beautiful private estate, the owners having researched each alternative thoroughly. The majority of permissions and bureaucratic contacts have been made, and it remains only for the new owner to decide how best to proceed

This large vacant property was once a homestead with an apple orchard. All that remains of the home is a stone foundation while the majority of the apple trees still bloom in profusion every Spring. The land is lovely and offers a multitude of expansive Little Bras d'Or Channel views from a series of sizable terraces. There is a mix of mostly softwoods interspersed with cleared openings amongst the trees. Privacy and natural beauty are abundant at this Boularderie Island location yet still within reasonable distance from Sydney, Cape Breton's largest urban area

Period homes are tricky to do well, and this one is done very well indeed. Two and a half floors, with interior decorating done to superb standards, the furniture and decorations declare this to be a Victorian style home of quality and taste. The house has been a successful B&B, but this could be an ideal doctor's residence or home for a larger family. The nearby golf and upscale home development, together with the Fortress, the expected new harbour facilities and beautiful nearby beaches make Louisbourg a very attractive community. Most furnishings, decorations and contents are included.

LITTLE JUDIQUE: Lovely River Estuary to the Sea

[click to enlarge]

This is a truly private location with features requiring on-site inspection to recognize their value. Nearly 13 acres with 1124 feet of waterfront on a lovely river estuary to the sea. Adjacent to a marina and sand beach, a perfect location for a dock or pier, a 35 foot height of land for a house to have views of the sea and Henry Island, a beach and ocean access a very short walk away, little passing traffic and yet just off of Rt. 19 on the west coast of Inverness County. Fishing, wildlife including deer, eagles, Blue Herons, bobcats, otters and the only sound the breeze in the trees. Vessels to 60 feet can use the marina

Character and curb appeal in this century old building combine to promise what one finds within. Six delightfully comfortable and attractive period rooms (named in honour of clergy who served St Bartholomew's church for which the house served as the rectory), each with either a king or queen sized bed, have been decorated and furnished to provide the traveler with a relaxing stay. Located near the harbour where a new cruise ship wharf and marina will be, the owner/manager has spared no effort to support the global reputation of this well known 4 & 1/2 star B&B. The new golf course development is only 5 minutes away, while the Fortress and beaches provide additional activities and allure

Set on top of a hill opposite the hospital, the doctor's house looks out over the town to the Gulf of St. Lawrence . It is surrounded by an acre of flower gardens with landscaped plantings along the borders. This pretty home has both old-world charm and modern comforts

This lovely location, with its very comfortable old but carefully refurbished 5 bedroom main building is a delightful mix of period charm with modern comfort. A turn-key operation. Four private and newly-built, very well constructed house-keeping cottages, suitable for all seasons, makes this B&B a valuable and appealing property. Views over the Cabot Trail to the ocean, Smokey just up the road, skiers in the winter, golfers in the summer, and travelers all year round are welcomed with home baked bread and old world courtesy

Strategically on the border of the Highlands National Park, with nearby golf, beaches, skiing, and snow-mobiling, this profitable business and adjacent comfortable home presents a remarkable opportunity for an ambitious and capable new owner. Open year round, Dino's is a local and tourist social center, with a complete kitchen, (incl. bakery), convenience store, counter and booths, and RV sites. Though the present return is excellent, expansion of the food business and convenience store, as well as additional triple RV connections should produce a very significant return. The home is lovely

NEW PRICE / EXPANDED LISTING

This is an unusual and, not to speak of rare, availability of raw land on the waterfront at this location on Ingonish, North Bay. With approximately 300 feet of mostly sandy (some rocky) beach below a raised waterfront, the views of Ingonish Island, the Keltic Lodge and Cape Smokey provide a seasonal palette of changing images that could never become commonplace. Affording plenty of room to build and landscape or simply be quiet and private, this parcel has all of the attributes of a top oceanfront property

NEW PRICE

Overlooking the shipping channel into the Bras d'Or, the Seal Island suspension bridge and Kelly Mountain in the background, this attractively designed and custom-built 2 level executive home combines comfort with utility, space with beauty. The vaulted ceiling in the living room uses wood and a central fireplace to great advantage, while the lower floor provides a range of rooms including large family room, office, sauna, and cold room. The attached finished and heated garage adds another dimension to convenience, and a greenhouse outside for the gardener. Close to North Sydney yet rural
