Overview
Description
Situated high above Cape Breton Island's famous Route 19 with breathtaking ocean views in the distance, a rare opportunity to own 100 acres of paradise awaits. Be amazed by the expanse of the Atlantic Ocean sparkling in the sun or crashing during a storm as far as the eye can see. Nature truly puts on a show here, and only a select few get to experience it every day! Within walking distance of the spectacular 92-kilometre Celtic Shores Coastal Trail, the property is mere minutes from the island hub of Port Hawkesbury and the Celtic Music Interpretive Centre in Judique, as well as less than half-an-hour from the beach capital of Port Hood. Travel a little farther up Rte. 19 to reach the charming village of Mabou, the seaside town of Inverness, or the world-renowned Cabot Trail. There is so much to experience here in the heart of Cape Breton Island! This beautiful, treed acreage beside the sought-after Mountainview Drive subdivision has a substantial easement to permit a driveway and access to electricity, and it has already been migrated. Perhaps it's time to answer the call to the island and follow your heart home!
