Property Description
Welcome to this charming 4-bedroom, 2-bath hobby farm, a true gem nestled on 54 acres in beautiful Cape Breton. Offering a peaceful country lifestyle with modern conveniences, this property provides the perfect escape while keeping you close to essential amenities. Over the years, the home and grounds have been meticulously upgraded, including a new roof and gutters in 2011, a refurbished storage barn in 2012 with a new 4 ft concrete frost wall in 2020 , electric fencing around the meadow in 2013. The home features a new workshop (2014), a basement under the saltbox portion (2015), and a modernized kitchen with new appliances (2017). The addition of a front deck (2019), a refurbished mudroom (2023), and recent landscaping around the house have enhanced both comfort and aesthetics. The current owners have rented out the refurbished barn for weddings, concerts, and other events. With a fair amount of local demand, this barn presents a fantastic business opportunity for anyone looking to host events in a scenic, rural setting. One of the standout features is the apartment unit in the barn, offering privacy for visiting family or guests wanting to experience Cape Breton’s natural beauty. This is an excellent asset for extended stays or potential rental income. The farm also boasts a horse paddock, a newly built greenhouse (2021), and recently harvested woodlots, creating a thriving environment ready for its next owners.
