(0.202 acres), this in-town lot offers the rare combination of municipal water and sewer service, electricity available, and year-round public road access — meaning no well, no septic system, and no seasonal road worries to budget for.

At $25,000, it's one of the more accessible entry points into homeownership in Cumberland County right now. Located in the walkable community of Springhill — known for its small-town charm, historic character, and easy access to Amherst, Truro, and the Cobequid Pass — this is a rare chance to secure a building lot where the heavy lifting (services and access) is already done.
