Overview
Description
A most unique and very attractive property built out into the waters of Cheticamp Harbour, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a property on the ocean. The calm salty winds, the everchanging seas, the ocean mist and sunsets will make everyday a dream come true. Built originally as a restaurant and then a successful pub, "La Chaloupe" was the place to be in the early 90's. Many good stories could be told about that part of our history. Currently, it houses 3 self sufficient successful vacation rental units, one being a "tiny house". Seller has the units for rent through Airbnb and VRBO. There is a wharf at the harbourside with full DOT/DNR authority for moorage. From either the dock or the balcony on the second level, the sea breezes mean essentially no bugs and the best seat in the house for stunning sunsets over Cheticamp Island. A boardwalk runs along both sides of the property, perfect for evening strolls hand in hand. Listen to the sound of the water while you lay in bed at night, such a peaceful feeling. So many options for your guests....leave from the dock with your kayak, paddleboard or sea-doo for hours of enjoyment. The kids would have so much fun fishing right off the wharf! Its central location allows them to walk to nearby restaurants where they can truly appreciate delightful seafood or traditional Acadian dishes. Because of its dual zoning status, you could live in one unit and rent out the other two, helping with the overall costs. Its an experience like no other to visit such a magical place, they won't ever want to leave.
