JUST PRICE IMPROVED!! This is truly a One-Of-A-Kind Property. Settled in 1850 by Scottish immigrants, the original Homestead still stands complete with hand hewn beam, planks and a unique 3-way stone fireplace. Although in need of restoration the Scottish Heritage & Charm of the Homestead certainly delivers on opportunity. The land is absolutely breathtaking and was an operational strawberry farm in the 60's & 70's. This lot is approx. 33 acres with over 600ft of beachfront, a natural freshwater spring and the large Brackish Pond near the beach. This is a private oasis that would certainly be the showcase property for your dream home with the original homestead as a guesthouse. The Bras d'Or Lake also offer a scenic backdrop with multiple Islands for a great boating & fishing experience...ready for a Tourism based attraction. This is Cape Breton Heritage at its finest. It must be seen to be appreciated. 2021-01-12
