Tucked into the rolling landscape of pasture and forest in the tiny, peaceful community of MacLeod Settlement is a gem waiting to be discovered. Featuring a turn-of-the-century house, an excellent barn, and a sizeable multi-use building on a sprawling 66 acres, this former farm provides incredible opportunity for the homesteader or the entrepreneur, as well as for the farmer or farmer-at-heart. Offered "as is, where is" as an estate sale, the house has a rustic charm evident in details like original wood beams and a newer wood stove. A horse lover's dream, the barn is a very solid and expansive structure, more than 2,400 s.f. in size. The building most recently used as a shed has a metal roof, a cement floor, a workshop, and an attached chicken coop; as with the the barn, it is in fantastic condition. The land is composed of many forested acres as well as several acres of cleared land, and offers wonderful views of gentle hills and the winding Southwest Mabou River in the distance. With a very private setting just 20 minutes from the Celtic Music Interpretive Centre, less than 25 minutes from Mabou or the famed beaches of Port Hood, and 40 miniutes from the island hub of Port Hawkesbury, this property invites you to exerience rural Cape Breton living!
From Route 19 in Judique, turn right onto Rear Intervale Rd. At the bridge, turn right onto Glencoe Rd, then right onto MacLeod Settlement Rd.
