    Step back in time while enjoying the comforts of modern living in this charming Nova Scotia farmhouse, nestled on 4 private acres along the beautiful Northumberland Strait. Originally built in 1830 by the son of a Scottish immigrant, this remarkable property has remained in the same family for nearly 200 years and is rich in local history and character. Constructed using traditional wooden beams, square nails, and wooden pegs, the home proudly showcases its heritage with original hardwood floors and timeless craftsmanship throughout. Adding to its unique story, the property served as the McArras Brook Post Office from 1874 to 1947. Extensively renovated in 2000, the home received major upgrades including a new foundation, windows, electrical system, plumbing, insulation, a dual oil/wood furnace, and a garage addition. More recent improvements include a ductless heat pump (2022) and a new dug well and pump (2025), providing peace of mind for years to come. Inside, you’ll find a warm and inviting layout featuring two bedrooms, a dedicated office, and two full bathrooms, each equipped with a shower. All appliances are included, making this property move-in ready. Enjoy the privacy and tranquility of country living while remaining just a five-minute walk to the shores of the Northumberland Strait and only a short drive to the sandy beaches of Arisaig. Climb the hill behind the home and take in stunning ocean views and unforgettable sunsets that paint the horizon each evening. Whether you’re seeking a year-round residence, a family homestead, or a historic coastal retreat, this one-of-a-kind property offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Nova Scotia’s history while enjoying modern comfort and breathtaking natural surroundings.
