Property Description
Discover a rare opportunity to own a charming off-grid property with approximately 13 acres on beautiful Pictou Island. Nestled in the heart of the Northumberland Strait between Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, Pictou Island offers a peaceful lifestyle, stunning natural beauty, and a welcoming, close-knit community. Known for its pristine white sand beaches and unique attractions, including the Wooden Tent retreat, yoga experiences, and yurt accommodations, the island is a hidden gem. Access is easy via the free ferry service from Caribou, making this an ideal seasonal retreat or future island getaway. Conveniently located near the Pictou Island Wharf and John MacCallum Park, with public beach access just a five-minute drive or leisurely bike ride away. The rustic cottage has already begun its transformation, with renovations started to create a more open-concept layout and updated insulation. It’s ready for the next owner to complete the vision and add their own personal style. The main floor features a kitchen with a propane stove, dining area, and living room, while the second level offers three spacious bedrooms and a room designated for a future bathroom. Additional features include a drilled freshwater well and approximately 13 acres of land, providing plenty of space to explore, relax, or expand your island retreat. As Pictou Island continues to grow in popularity as a sought-after destination, this property presents an exceptional opportunity to create your own private getaway or investment for the future. Priced to sell and offered as is, where is, this unique property is full of character, potential, and endless possibilities.
