Description

Imagine driving along the scenic Marine Drive of Nova Scotia’s Eastern Shore, turning down West Ship Harbour Road in Owls Head, and pulling up to your own private 25-acre coastal haven. Offering an expansive 1,089,000 square feet of beautiful, mature woodland, this unique parcel sits directly along a year-round, publicly maintained road with electrical hookups readily accessible. What makes this property truly exceptional is its natural division across the road. You hold approximately 4.2 acres right on the ocean's edge—boasting 250 feet of saltwater frontage—complemented by a vast 21.3-acre wooded sanctuary on the opposite side. The land is zoned MU (Mixed Use), unlocking an incredible range of potential for buyers with a vision. Whether you dream of building a private oceanfront estate, establishing a family compound, or exploring lucrative commercial opportunities, this acreage provides the flexibility to bring it to life. The Eastern Shore’s thriving eco-tourism market makes this an ideal setting for an Airbnb or short-term rental operation. You could build a primary waterfront residence on the ocean side while developing boutique glamping domes, off-grid eco-cabins, or seasonal vacation rentals across the 21 wooded acres. Location is everything, and Owls Head puts you at the gateway to some of the province's most celebrated natural attractions. You are moments away from the protected wilderness of Owls Head Provincial Park and the famous 100 Wild Islands archipelago, a world-renowned destination for sea kayaking, island hopping, and coastal hiking. Surfers and beachcombers will love the close proximity to Martinique Beach and Clam Harbour Beach, while essential services, local shops, and schools—including Oyster Pond Academy and Eastern Shore Consolidated—are all within an easy drive. This is a rare, affordable opportunity to secure a substantial piece of Nova Scotia’s coast with endless lifestyle, business, and investment potential.
