Land For Sale

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 25 is a picturesque and versatile property located between Mira River’s Big Bay and MacLean’s Bay. This exceptional lot spans 30 acres, with a substantial 900 feet of waterfront, offering a variety of scenic viewpoints to admire the breathtaking river from. The property boasts a unique feature – it takes in the narrows between the two bays, with a point, jog out into the bay, and a cove. The land on the opposite side of the property provides protection from the wind, ensuring a comfortable and serene environment. It offers a great deal of privacy and provides exquisite summer sunsets. This property is perfect for those looking for a peaceful retreat to enjoy nature’s beauty. Additionally, if subdividing is desired, this lot offers the potential to create multiple large lots, allowing for even greater flexibility.
