There’s something about life on the water that changes your pace. Set on more than two acres with 200 feet of pristine Bras d’Or Lake frontage, this beautifully rebuilt retreat was designed for slow mornings, unforgettable sunsets, and the kind of everyday moments that remind you why waterfront living is so special. Originally a log cabin, the home has been thoughtfully reimagined, preserving its warmth and character while embracing modern comfort. Vaulted ceilings and expansive windows flood the living spaces with natural light, framing breathtaking 180 degree lake views from nearly every room. At the heart of the home, the kitchen and living area invite quiet mornings with a coffee by the wood stove and lively evenings spent entertaining, while efficient heat pumps provide year round comfort. The lofted primary bedroom feels like a private sanctuary, where the first thing you see each morning is the shimmering water beyond your window. The main floor bathroom boasts heated floors, a spacious double vanity, and generous storage, bringing a touch of luxury to everyday living. Outside, the lifestyle is just as exceptional. Expansive decks offer endless places to gather, unwind, or simply watch the ever changing colours of the lake. Slip into the hot tub after a day on the water or take advantage of the finished space off the garage, ideal as a bunkhouse, artist’s studio, home office, or hobby room. An additional garage provides abundant storage for recreational equipment and outdoor gear. Just minutes from Orangedale and a short drive to the beloved Farmer’s Daughter Country Store, this meticulously maintained waterfront home offers the perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and the laid back Cape Breton lifestyle you’ve been dreaming of.
