Discover your private slice of Cape Breton paradise where 217 pristine acres of farmland meet timeless island charm, just minutes from the enchanting village of Mabou. This lovingly restored century farmhouse features 5 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, and 2,000+ sq ft of living space with gleaming hardwood floors flowing throughout, complemented by soaring high ceilings, a gourmet country kitchen, formal dining room, and dual living areas. Recent premium upgrades include a standing seam steel roof (2020), dual heat pump system (2020), complete window replacement, plus wood stove and furnace for cozy, cost-effective heating. The 217 acres of prime farmland offer limitless possibilities as this former dairy operation features extensive hay fields, established vegetable gardens, mature orchard, and turn-key infrastructure ready for immediate restart - all you need to do is hook up the equipment and the farm is fully operational again.

Whether you're reviving the dairy operation, creating your dream homestead, or recognizing Cape Breton's investment potential, this estate offers multiple income streams including agricultural production, agritourism possibilities, and heritage home rental opportunities. Your island lifestyle awaits, your farming dreams can become reality, and your legacy begins here. Properties of this caliber rarely change hands outside family succession - don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of Nova Scotia's most desirable agricultural estates.
