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 26 is a one-of-a-kind property that offers an array of unique features. Located on the narrows between Mira River’s Big Bay and MacLean’s Bay, this lot’s position is fully on MacLean’s Bay, offering unparalleled year-round sunsets. What’s more, the sun’s seasonal movements on the horizon have shaped the sunset view, providing an ever-changing landscape for you to enjoy. This lot spans an impressive 35 acres and boasts 1500 feet of waterfront, making it the second-largest property in The Shieling’s new development. The lot’s size, privacy, and diverse range of landscapes make it an ideal location for a peaceful, quiet retreat. Moreover, its deep water navigation in the narrows adds an additional layer of convenience for watercraft enthusiasts. Additionally, if subdividing is desired, this lot offers the potential to create multiple large lots, allowing for even greater flexibility.
