If you're seeking summer excitement or year-round peaceful living, the Mira River is Cape Breton's premier destination. This 54-kilometre navigable, meandering river has the feel of a long lake but is moving, tidal, and pristine, making it the ideal waterway for a range of activities, from sailing and personal watercraft to speed boating and cruising. Additionally, the river warms quickly, ensuring comfortable swimming, and it boasts untouched natural beauty. The Shieling Mira River Waterfront Community is delighted to announce the availability of its newest waterfront lots, located on Mira River's widest bay, known as Big Bay. These lots are larger than any previously offered by The Shieling, thoughtfully subdivided to provide ample space, privacy, and the option to subdivide or retain them as one large lot. The land itself consists of sandy and gravelly soil, making excavation easy and providing excellent conditions for percolation and well water access. To protect your investment, practical restrictive covenants are in place. Lot 22 is a truly remarkable property, representing the largest new lot available from The Shieling. Situated on the expansive Big Bay, this lot spans an impressive 43 acres, boasting 2,600 feet of waterfront, including an L-shaped point, two small coves within larger ones, and sweeping views that extend from west to northeast. Adding to its appeal, two lovely islands can be seen just off the shore, further enhancing the unique character of this property. Notably, this lot features an array of desirable elements, including a sandy beach with a gentle slope, providing comfort and ease for swimming. Additionally, for those interested in subdividing, this lot presents the opportunity to create multiple additional lots, offering further flexibility and versatility.
