Overview
Description
This gorgeous 23.7-acre property is located just outside the Village of Pugwash on scenic Pugwash River Road, offering seemingly endless frontage (approx. 2,800') along the beautiful Pugwash River. Whether you're looking for a year-round residence or a recreational retreat, this property provides the perfect setting to relax and enjoy riverfront living while still being within a short drive of local amenities. With nearly 1,200 feet of road frontage, the possibilities here are extensive. This is a unique property with tremendous potential. With its Recreation Residential zoning, there may also be opportunities for seasonal development, such as a campground or short-term campsite rentals along the river (subject to municipal approvals). The majority of the land is treed, providing privacy and natural beauty. However, there is a cleared and landscaped parcel of just over one acre that currently contains a mini home occupied by a resident who does not hold any ownership interest in the property. Several years ago, the owner entered into an informal occupancy arrangement with the current resident. Should a buyer wish to occupy the entire property or require vacant possession, the occupant has been notified and has agreed to vacate the property within 60 days of a firm sale. The owner of the mini home may choose to relocate the structure to another property. Alternatively, if acceptable to the purchaser, the occupant may seek to enter into a new lease agreement with the new owner. Don't miss your opportunity to own a remarkable stretch of the Pugwash River!
