Overview:

A waterfront 4 acre parcel with an attractive and unusual home that includes a two floor tower with 360 degree vistas. Only minutes from the charming village of Cheticamp, and the road to Cheticamp Island. The Highlands National Park begins just beyond Cheticamp's northern outskirts, at the lovely Cheticamp River. A detached two car garage with plenty of storage space; a hook-up for water and sewer for an RV; a well tended meadow; and nearly 230 feet of waterfront on the Gulf of St. Lawrence completes this comfortable and pleasant setting. Priced to sell, the 1,490 square foot building provides a wood stove, lots of light and views, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and privacy.

Comments:

The most unusual aspect of the residence is a 2 storey octagonal lighthouse-style tower presently set up as an office / den. The views from this vantage point offer 180 degrees of ocean and sunsets and 160 degrees of highland landscapes. There is also a boardwalk that leads toward the ocean and a small observation / suntanning deck just steps from the beach and water's edge.

Notable:

There is a detached 2 car garage measuring 24' X 24' that has heat, electricity and overhead doors.
