This is the kind of property that opens the door to options. Whether you’re looking for a waterfront home, an income property, or something that can evolve over time, the potential here is real. Inside, the home delivers on space and feel. Cathedral ceilings on both levels and large windows flood this three-bedroom home with natural light. It’s bright, open, and spacious enough for the whole Rankin family. The property itself is what people are searching for but rarely find: just over an acre of privacy with 180 feet of sheltered waterfront, giving you access to the Little Bras d’Or or out to the Atlantic. Sunrises over St. Andrews Channel are something you’ll never get tired of (the loons, blue jays, and deer seem to agree). The layout lends itself well to a potential two-unit conversion with the addition of exterior access to the upper level. The home has already been used successfully for both short and long-term rentals, offering immediate income potential with room to grow. The standout opportunity is the additional 40' x 24' foundation with its own well, ready for whatever you envision next. Peaceful and tucked away, yet just 15 minutes to the North Sydney ferry, 30 minutes to the Cabot Trail, and 30 minutes to Cape Breton University. This is one you’ll want to see in person. (2022-2024 updates include: all new lighting and plumbing, new roof, upgraded septic, new heat pump, improved driveway, and more.)
