Escape to Nova Scotia: 142-Acre Riverfront Homestead with FiberOp Ditch the urban congestion for the ultimate East Coast sanctuary. Held by the same family since the 1940s, this rare 142-acre estate in West Middle Sable offers the space, freedom, and privacy that is nearly impossible to find elsewhere. Spanning both sides of a quiet rural road, this versatile property combines extensive riverfront living with massive acreage and functional homesteading infrastructure. THE WATERFRONT (5 Acres): Boasting over 2,000 feet of direct, pristine frontage on the Sable River, this beautifully treed lot is a private nature sanctuary. Build your dream riverside cabin, keep it for ultimate privacy, or subdivide and resell it to recoup your investment. THE WOODLOT (137 Acres): Directly across the road sits an expansive, untouched 137-acre parcel. Over 800 ft wide and 1.35 miles deep, it features a rich mix of mature hardwood and softwood. A woodlot survey is available. This land holds incredible potential for sustainable forestry, private hiking/ATV trails, or off-grid development. THE FARMHOUSE & BARN: The solid 1,600 sq ft story-and-a-half home is full of country character. Remodeled in the 1980s, it features a modern septic system, reliable drilled/dug wells, and an eat-in kitchen with a unique, working wood/oil enamelled cookstove. Large east-facing living room windows showcase morning river views. The flexible floor plan includes a main-floor bedroom, den, retro 4pc bath, and a massive upstairs bonus room easily convertible into two additional bedrooms. A mowed yard leads to a spectacular 29'x22' story-and-a-half post-and-beam-barn-perfect for a workshop, studio, or hobby farm. THE LOCATION: Work remotely without compromise: BellFiberOp high-speed internet is available at the road! You are just a short drive from the white sands of Louis Head Beach, and only 25 minutes to the historic, oceanfront town of Shelburne for all shopping, dining, and amenities.
