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 23 is nestled within an inner protected cove between two of Mira River’s most coveted bays – Big Bay and MacLean’s Bay. It offers an impressive 31 acres of land and an extensive 860 feet of stunning waterfront. One of the most significant draws of this property is its exceptional privacy, set back from boat traffic and boasting tranquil summertime sunset views. The property’s idyllic setting also provides excellent views of the nearby island and the L-shaped point, which only adds to its natural beauty. If subdividing is your preference, 2-3 large lots are entirely feasible.
