Property Description
Welcome to 6711 East Bay Highway in Big Pond, a peaceful Cape Breton property offering privacy, natural surroundings, and year-round recreation on approximately 35.79 acres. Set back from the road and surrounded by mature trees, the property offers a private setting where nature creates its own privacy wall around the home. Located just minutes from Ben Eoin Beach RV Resort, Ben Eoin Provincial Park, The Lakes at Ben Eoin Golf Club & Resort, and Ski Ben Eoin, this property combines a quiet rural setting with convenient access to some of the area's most popular attractions. Built in 2023, this 3 bedroom, 2 bath home has since seen thoughtful additions and improvements, including a spacious primary bedroom with ensuite bathroom with shower. An additional rear expansion built for a stackable washer and dryer along with extra storage, while a heat pump provides efficient heating and cooling throughout the seasons. One of the standout features of the property is the natural setting behind the home, where the land gradually rises into a scenic wooded hillside with a brook flowing down through the property. The partially landscaped yard offers space to relax and enjoy the outdoors, while the chicken coop and additional storage shed add extra functionality for hobby or rural living. The deed includes a right of way to the Bras d'Or Lake nearby at the end of Penny Lane, offering added recreational appeal and water access just minutes away. Located within the Cape Breton Regional Municipality (CBRM), this property offers the perfect balance of privacy, recreation, and convenient access to nearby amenities.
