Here is a rare opportunity to own a farm in the Margaree Valley with frontage on the Margaree River.
The farm consists of the large main house and several outbuildings, - seven in all - on 19 acres backing onto the River.
Land
The buildings are spread out over 4 or 5 acres beside the East Big Intervale road. Then the terrain drops down to 8+ acres of pasture and hayfields, beautiful land and beautiful views from it - see the photos. Then 6+ acres of mature hardwood reaching to the river, with currently no cleared land at the river bank.
River frontage is over 400 feet. (For those unfamiliar with the area this is a serious river, the North-East Margaree, famed for salmon and trout.)
House
The home, the main part dating from 1924, had a back section added later. The house has good bones and a full concrete foundation. The exterior needs painting but inside the house is attractive: principal rooms are spacious, with attractive wood details and panelling, for instance the kitchen with its beautiful custom-built cabinetry.
There are two bedrooms plus two or three others with pass-through access, one full and one half bathroom.
The heating system is an oil forced hot air furnace plus a wood stove in the rear section.
FiberOP is available.
Farm Buildings
The main hay barn - 40’ x 80’ - is in very good condition. The cattle barn is 32’ x 30’. Then there are various other buildings and sheds: a pig barn, chicken house, shop, etc. for a total of 7 outbuildings in all.
All farm equipment is included in the price - a list is available.
Location
The farm is 3 miles from the Dancing Goat on the Cabot Trail. Within easy reach of the many attractions along the west side of Cape Breton - like beaches, fishing, hiking, music and golf.
