Listing Description

Generational properties like this seldom reach the market. Discover your private slice of Cape Breton paradise where 225 pristine acres of farmland meet timeless island charm, just minutes from the enchanting village of Mabou. This lovingly restored century farmhouse features 5 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, and 2,000+ sq ft of living space with gleaming hardwood floors flowing throughout, complemented by soaring high ceilings, a large kitchen, formal dining room, and dual living areas. Recent upgrades include a standing seam steel roof (2020), dual heat pump system (2020), complete window replacement, plus existing wood stove and wood furnace for cozy, cost-effective heating. The 225 acres of prime farmland offer limitless possibilities as this former dairy operation features extensive hay fields, established vegetable garden and greenhouse, orchard, and turn-key infrastructure ready for immediate restart - all you need to do is hook up the equipment and the farm is fully operational again. Two separate PIDs maximize development and investment potential, while the location minutes from Mabou places you at the heart of Gaelic culture on Cape Breton Island where you can enjoy pristine beaches, world-class golf, authentic local restaurants, year-round ceilidhs, and vibrant Celtic heritage. Whether you're reviving the dairy operation, creating your dream homestead, or recognizing Cape Breton's investment potential, this estate offers multiple income streams including agricultural production, agritourism possibilities, and heritage home rental opportunities. Your island lifestyle awaits, your farming dreams can become reality, and your legacy begins here. Properties of this caliber rarely change hands outside family succession - don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of Nova Scotia's most desirable agricultural estates. (230934148)
