About the Property
The Country Harbour property is 525 acres subdivided into 12 blocks and located in Country Harbour, Nova Scotia. Nine blocks will be sold, and the balance will be retained and protected by PineRidge Properties.
This is nature adventuring at its best. The compelling feature of this property is the trail system. Drive right to your doorstep and hop on an extensive trail system connecting to the interprovincial pipeline trail. From your cabin you can ATV or hike to the tip of New Brunswick or the ocean at Guysborough – miles and miles of enjoyment.
The Country Harbour Preserve is adjacent to 87,000 acres of Crown land, including Big Archibald Lake. Additional fishing and boating on the Country Harbour River and Salsman Provincial Park are just 5 minutes down the road. Wildlife is abundant, including confirmed moose sightings and a protected/registered moose area on the property. A forest management plan is in place to optimize the forest with the potential of participating in a carbon offset plan.
The 12 blocks all have their unique features. A brook runs through many of the blocks. Elevated views, softwood stands, mature hardwood stands, ridgelines (160m elevation)……there is a full range of options to be taken in. You must drive/walk the property to appreciate the range of available property options. One block does have a 4 season off-grid cabin in place.
2:45 hours from Halifax. 50 minutes from Antigonish. Country Harbour Preserve is not for everyone…..but this is the perfect spot if you love nature, privacy, and adventuring in nature. If you can’t relax here, you can’t relax anywhere!
