73 Bon Jour Ln, Colchester, NS B0K 1V0

Lovingly held by the same family for more than 50 years, this classic 4-bedroom, 1-bath cottage captures everything people seek in a Nova Scotia summer escape: ocean views, warm saltwater beaches, privacy, and a close connection to nature and family. Set on an extra-large private lot with easy right-of-way beach access and a drilled well, the property offers both immediate enjoyment and future potential. A significant portion of the lot remains treed and untouched, providing exceptional privacy and room for future expansion or a guest bunkie. Mornings begin with coffee on the deck overlooking the Northumberland Strait. Days are spent swimming in some of the warmest ocean waters north of the Carolinas, exploring the shoreline for sea glass and shells, or simply unwinding in the peaceful rhythm of coastal life. Evenings bring sunset dinners, campfires under star-filled skies, and the sound of waves in the distance. With no immediate neighbours on either side, the cottage enjoys a rare sense of seclusion where children can roam, wildlife frequently passes through, and every stay feels like a true escape. Thoughtful updates include insulated walls, a screened porch, updated fridge and stove, a storage shed, newly shingled porch roof, and freshly painted trim and doors. Ideally located just 12 minutes from the vibrant village of Tatamagouche, you'll enjoy easy access to shops, restaurants, cafés, and everyday amenities. Blue Sea Beach Provincial Park, golf courses, Fox Harb'r Resort, local bakeries, Jost Vineyards, and the Trans Canada Trail system are all nearby, while Truro is approximately 40 minutes away. Priced to allow the next owner to add their own interior touches and custom finishes, this property offers outstanding value in one of Nova Scotia's most desirable coastal communities. Quick closing is available, allowing you to enjoy the cottage this season. Some properties are simply owned—others become part of a family's story.
