Oceanfront Living Meets Entrepreneurial Opportunity – Just 5 Minutes from Peggy’s Cove! Set in a sheltered bay with deep-water frontage, this beautifully renovated oceanfront property offers endless potential — whether you dream of living by the sea, running your own business, or both. Just five minutes from world-famous Peggy’s Cove and less than 30 minutes to Tantallon or Bayer’s Lake, this is a rare find in an unbeatable location. Situated on 0.75 acres, the property includes a large backfilled field area offering space for additional outbuildings or even another home, providing incredible flexibility for expansion or investment. The home was fully redone inside and out in 2017, including plumbing, electrical, insulation, drywall, metal roof, siding, septic tank, inlet pipe, and more. This home goes over and above to ensure maximum energy efficiency and endless cozy evenings with its spray foam and blown in insulation, ductless heat pump, propane stove, and outlet for a generator - not to mention the custom fire pit area with seating for all of your friends and family. Two impressive 30’ x 20’ garages, both insulated and drywalled, built in 2019 and 2021 — each with its own power meter and 110/220V outlets. One has 8’ ceilings, the other 10’, making them ideal for workshops, storage, or commercial use. Outdoors, you’ll find everything ready for coastal living or income generation: a newer crib dock and launch (4 years old), RV/trailer pad with electric and sewer hookups, and three solar-powered waterfront bunkies — perfect for summer rentals or tourist stays. Zoned to allow for multiple uses allowing the new owner to capitalize on the major tourism aspect of this community, this property is brimming with opportunity. Whether you’re seeking a home with income potential, an investment property, or a place to launch your coastal business dreams, this gem delivers.
