Cape Breton Estates: Land of the Golden Arms

An attractive waterfront property that provides 100 feet of coast, and slightly rising profile from the water to the gravel road just off of the Cabot Trail, short of Cheticamp. An attractive and useful setting for a cottage or bungalow, the properties on either side are tasteful and taken care of. Views of the end of Cheticamp Island, and to the rear the rise of the Highlands provide seasonal changes from the green of summer to brilliant fall highlights and then the snows of winter. Sunsets over the Gulf can only be referred to as gorgeous. The proximity of the charming fishing village of Cheticamp means that groceries, building supplies, golf, restaurants and the Cathedral are only moments away, but far enough for a peaceful location. A further extension of this land is available across the frontage road and runs to the Cabot Trail (Rt 19)

This listing is a very interesting property. At .8 of an acre with comfortably refurbished bungalow and a walk-out, developed rental basement, this D'Escousse property borders the picturesque Lennox Passage Yacht Club and its long pier.

Rising 1000 feet above the coast, this is a highland property of astonishing beauty, a fitting description of both the acreage itself and the one of a kind views it affords of ocean, lake and rolling valleys below. Several roads, one a 4-wheeler and one fit for any vehicle provide warm-weather access to the mountain top. Gigantic maples and yellow birch tower over a hardwood forest with no record of ever being cut. Despite the lofty location and steep slopes below, there are a number of level building sites with water views. Though no one has lived in this silent domain for over 100 years, someone certainly could

Situated above the expanse of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, with a panoramic view that includes the Gulf of St. Lawrence, the southern part of Cheticamp Island, including the distant steeple of the Cathedral, and the foothills of the majestic Cape Breton Island, this well tended 7 odd acres commands both the ocean and the mountains behind. Just a few steps away along the Old Cabot Trail is a steep track that leads down to a sand beach offering a delightfully private walking area for about a 1/2 mile, swimming in season, or beach parties. The Old Cabot Trail having negligible traffic, no sound but the wind and the sea intrudes, yet the charming fishing village of Cheticamp is only 10 minutes away with one of the best grocery stores in Cape Breton, a variety of restaurants, golf, and more.t...
