Nestled in the serene wilderness of Smithfield, Nova Scotia, this secluded 1 acre lakefront cottage on Barren Lake offers unparalleled tranquility and natural beauty. The cozy, single-level 24.1x20.1 cottage is surrounded by lush forest, with a private dock extending into the pristine lake, perfect for swimming, canoeing, or fishing for trout and perch. Wildlife frequents the area, creating a peaceful ambiance as you wake to the sounds of nature or relax on the deck. Accessible via a private wood road used by the seller since the 1980's, this retreat offers a unique escape for hunting, fishing, or simply soaking in the solitude. Note that the wood road access is not deeded or a right-of way (landlocked).
