This lovely 3.067 acre surveyed lot is nestled along the world-renowned Cabot Trail in Cape Breton. Topographically, the land is high and dry, mostly level throughout and the ground drains well. There is a nice variety of trees growing here that include Maple, Spruce, Poplar, Birch, Fir and Pine. The trees are nicely spaced with small open areas between making the land easy to walk and allowing nice hillside views towards the west and open views towards the coastline.
Although there are no requirements to build and improve your land, it is perfectly suited for a cottage, log home, and year round residence whenever you are ready to start construction. With low ownership costs, it is the perfect land investment for someone looking to buy now while prices are still affordable. There are currently four beautiful homes and cottages built on neighboring lots, the owners being from Canada and the USA.
The land is just 750 feet away via a walking trail from the beach and the Atlantic where you can enjoy long picturesque beach walks, water sports and outdoor activities like swimming, kayaking, canoeing, boating, and fishing. You’ll spot bald eagles soaring overhead, and may even spot whales and seals in the distance. Just a few miles south of your land is Little Wharf Harbour with boat wharf and moorage. When in season, you can purchase fresh lobster and crab here direct from the local fishermen.
There is also lots to do here in winter months! Great hiking, snowshoeing and cross country skiing on the local trails as well as on marked trails in the Cape Breton Highlands National Park. When snow conditions allow, enjoy downhill skiing at Ski Cape Smokey just 20 minutes from your property. And fantastic snowmobiling throughout the Cape Breton Highlands.
The land is located in Skir Dhu, on the North Shore of Cape Breton Island, just 20 minutes from Cape Smokey Provincial Park, between the Cape Breton Highlands National Park and the charming village of Baddeck. The North Shore is home to a vast array of wildlife, a crab and lobster fishery, and many artisans, crafters, cafes and restaurants.
