Description
Built in 1865, this peaceful home sits on the side of a mountain in one of Cape Breton’s most scenic areas. Just steps away from the Rear Barachois River and the stunning Barachois River Gorge, enjoy hiking and exploring the Barachois Mountain Gorge trail system. Even better, it’s just steps away from a fabulous swimming hole—perfect for cooling off on warm summer days. The 97-acre parcel features old-growth forest, vegetable gardens, and a rich natural setting enhanced by the gentle sounds of the surrounding wilderness. A gravity-fed water supply provides fresh, abundant water year-round, and the property is accessible via a maintained year-round road. The house is solidly built and full of character, but will need some TLC—including bathroom renovations—making it an ideal project for someone looking to restore a piece of local history in the countryside. Only 35 minutes from the village of Baddeck, this is a unique opportunity to own a large, rugged parcel of Cape Breton’s countryside with enormous potential.
