Overview
Description
257 Wiley Avenue presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a well-maintained legal 11-unit residential apartment building in the growing community of Windsor, Nova Scotia.

The property is serviced by a 400-amp electrical system and heated with electric radiant baseboard heaters throughout the building.

Additional improvements include a municipal sewer main line replacement completed in November 2025, providing added confidence for future ownership.
