Property Description

Set on 2.7 surveyed, wooded acres, this private retreat sits just a mile from Chimney Corner on Cape Bretons west coast. Selective clearing has opened up the land for easy seasonal use while keeping the quiet forest frame intact. Access off Shore Road is simple via a gravel driveway, and the propertys lower boundary runs along a small running brook. The land features a brand-new tiny home that is fully insulated and heated by a professionally installed wood stove. Nine large windows bring in plenty of natural light, and a cozy loft offers extra space. Power is fully sorted with a newly installed 200-amp electrical service. The sale also includes an RV currently set up on a solid gravel pad. It is covered by a newly built 12x24 wooden structure with a durable metal roof and an attached 6x10 front porch. If you prefer to open up the space, you can easily pull the RV out and convert that covered structure into a standalone garage, workshop, or secondary guest cabin. The current owner has spent seasons gardening, maintaining the woods, and setting up the core layout. The next owner the flexibility to select their own water source and septic system for long-term plans. In the meantime, there is a brand new composting toilet in the tiny home that hasn't been installed yet. Location is a major highlight here. You are within walking distance of Petite Eglise Cove ocean beach, and just minutes from Whale Cove beach and the entrance to the Cabot Trail. Heading 20 minutes south brings you right into Inverness for full town amenities and world-class Cabot golf, while Cheticamp and the Cape Breton Highlands National Park sit 30 minutes to the north. Whether you are looking for a turn-key summer getaway or a prepped lot for a year-round custom home, the heavy prep work is already complete. (id:7434)
