Lake Ainslie Waterfront – Beautiful Shoreline with a Fixer-Upper Cottage 2477 Highway 395, East Lake Ainslie | Approx. 1.32 Acres | 208 Feet of Waterfront Here is an opportunity to own a beautiful piece of waterfront property on Lake Ainslie, one of Cape Breton's most scenic freshwater lakes. The real highlight of this property is its approximately 208 feet of lake frontage, featuring a lovely sandy and pebble beach with easy access to the water. Lake Ainslie is a wonderful place to enjoy boating, fishing, swimming, kayaking, and spending long summer days by the water. Whether you are looking for a family getaway or a waterfront property to make your own, the location has plenty to offer. The property includes an older cottage, believed to have been built approximately 50 years ago, that is in poor condition and requires substantial repairs and renovations. The interior is very basic, with plywood walls and mostly plywood flooring, some covered with carpet. There is no septic system, and water has been drawn directly from the lake. The cottage also has an exterior brick chimney. This is not a move-in-ready cottage. Buyers should be prepared for a significant renovation project and the expense of installing proper water and septic systems if they intend to use the property as a seasonal retreat or residence. The property is being sold “As Is, Where Is.” For the right buyer, this could be an interesting fixer-upper project, or an opportunity to explore other possibilities for this beautiful waterfront location, subject to the necessary approvals. The cottage needs work, but the sandy and pebble beach, generous waterfrontage, and natural beauty of Lake Ainslie are what make this property special.
