This 1.5-storey home sits on a one-acre parcel with lovely views of the cove and deeded access to the ocean just across the road. The home is ready for some TLC and imagination, offering the opportunity to create a cozy year-round home or a rustic seaside getaway.

This purchase also includes an additional 19+ acres of mature forest surrounding the property, offering plenty of privacy, space to explore, several natural clearings, and beautiful ocean views from further back on the land. Fibre optic internet is available along the road and there is plenty of potential to build your dream home, create a weekend retreat, or explore additional building opportunities.

Located just 25 minutes from Sheet Harbour and all local amenities, this property offers a wonderful opportunity to embrace a more relaxed coastal lifestyle.
