Description
Escape to the coast with this stunning 891 feet of ocean waterfrontage, 1.82 acre parcel, on a level lot along Nova Scotia's scenic Marine Drive. Set on the shores of Chedabucto Bay in the historic community of Halfway Cove, this property offers a rare opportunity to build your dream home or enjoy the existing travel trailer for seasonal getaways right away. The lot is already equipped with a dug well and septic in place, along with three sheds for storage, giving you a head start whether you choose to build new or continue using the property as is for weekend and summer escapes. This stretch of the Eastern Shore is one of Nova Scotia's best kept secrets, known for its dramatic coastline, quiet fishing communities, and a slower pace of life that draws visitors and new residents alike. Nearby Canso and Hazel Hill are seeing renewed interest as tourism and development continue to grow in the region, with local attractions, coastal trails, and working harbours that capture the true character of the Eastern Shore. Guysborough, with its restaurants, marina, and amenities, is just a short drive away, while Antigonish and access to Highway 104 make trips into larger centres straightforward. Whether you are drawn to the idea of a peaceful seasonal retreat or ready to plan a year round home on the water, this property offers the space, the setting, and the flexibility to make it your own. With expansive ocean views, level usable land, and a location that puts you close to the water and close to nature, opportunities like this along Marine Drive do not come up often. Don't be caught saying I should have bought it when I saw it!
