This 83-acre property high above the Shore Road at Chimney Corner offers fantastic panoramic views over the ocean, Margaree Island and Chimney Corner. It is a huge tract of largely old growth hardwood forest, stretching back into the interior over a mile, easily accessed from the highway.
This superb home overlooks the ocean, Margaree Harbour and the river estuary from its commanding hilltop location.
The 9.5 acre property slopes gently down to the riverside, with several entrancing paths cut through the native shrubs, small trees and grasses of the meadow. The land has 268 ft of river frontage.
This property is a 2.7 acre wooded lot a mile from Chimney Corner on the west coast of Cape Breton that has been partly cleared. There is now a charming new tiny home with nine windows and a loft.
The home is fully insulated, and heated by a wood stove. There is 200 amp (!) electrical service, and the wood stove installation is fully certified.
Amazing ocean views from this property, looking south over the Mabou River estuary, the famous West Mabou beach and the coastline. This seller developed four terraced lots going up the hillside; three are sold, this one is the last and highest of the four. 3.5 acres offering several beautiful building sites
What a view! A 7,061 square foot lot overlooks Inverness harbour, the golf course and the ocean., facing west into the sunsets. No road or power lines intruding! This is a location unike any other land in town.
Bordering the front of the property is the former railway line from Inverness to the Causeway, now the Celtic Shores Coastal Trail, a well maintained hiking, biking, skiing etc trail. Step out of your house and walk to the beach, on trails.
This handsome Century home is on 50 acres in 'The Glen" located at the base of Cape Mabou midway between Inverness and Mabou. The setting offers sweeping countryside views to the west.
In the '80s a piece was added to the house - the wing on the right in the photo above - giving a family room, a laundry/utility room, a main floor bathroom, a bigger kitchen and dining area, and a small bedroom/office.
Not a lot to say about this property! Just 3.2 acres on the ocean (400 feet of oceanfront ) with spectacular views in all directions: up and down the coast, straight out to Margaree Island, and inland too. There’s a rocky pebble beach to explore and swim from. The clifftop site is accessed via a right of way from the Shore Road.
A large lot in the centre of Inverness is 6,000 square feet, priced at $80,000. The neighbouring lot - 2,917 sq ft - is $50,000.
There are various options for building on the lots: single family, semi detached, triplex etc. Situated on naturally sloping terrain, they offer the ability to house a rear-basement walkout design. Ocean and golf course views are possible from a home with an upstairs.
64 acres (as showing on the NS property system) on Hunters Road slopes down all the way to the Celtic SHores Coastal Trail (the old railway tracks) which runs beside the West Mabou river.
Wonderful panoramic views from the higher levels of this property looking over the Mabou Highlands, the estuary, the church and then on around to the south, miles and miles.
This has been called an ‘old-fashioned acreage’ meaning it is not a long strip (usually created by subdivisions) but close to a square, 2700 ft by 3000 ft. The Smithville Road provides one of the long sides of the property, and the old railway line running from Inverness to the Canso Causeway - now the Celtic Shores Coastal Trail - is the other long boundary.
The entrance to this huge parcel of land is across the highway from the road into Chimney Corner beach. The property has a road through it and some small areas of cleared land, meadows - remnants of the homestead that was once here. Otherwise it is a tract of forested land, largely hardwood, with some spruce here and there.
