About 11201 & 11203 Cabot Trail
Perched along the iconic Cabot Trail, this spectacular oceanfront estate offers a rare blend of natural beauty, privacy, and architectural excellence. With sweeping, unobstructed views of the Atlantic and nightly sunsets over the water, this 9+ acre coastal retreat is a place of true inspiration, ideal for year-round living, remote work, or as a four-season getaway. Nestled at the end of a private, tree-lined driveway, the property reveals Cape Breton's dramatic rocky shoreline, complete with your own direct access to a secluded, stony beach. Take a dip in the ocean, watch for whales and seabirds, then rinse off in the outdoor shower as the sun sets over the 1,500sqft of cedar decking. Completed in 2022 and protected under the Atlantic Home Warranty, the main residence and garage are built to the highest standards. The main home is a stylish 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom bungalow with clean architectural lines and a coastal-modern aesthetic. Nearby, the detached garage features a fully equipped 1-bedroom apartment above, perfect as a guest suite or rental unit. A third dwelling, the original guest house on the property, has been fully renovated and expanded, offering a 1-bedroom layout with a loft and a full bathroom. Each of the three dwellings is strategically placed to ensure privacy and panoramic ocean views. All structures reflect a modern interpretation of traditional Nova Scotian design, combining quality craftsmanship with comfort and energy efficiency. Features include ICF construction, metal roofing, energy-efficient heat pumps, cozy wood stoves (plus a propane stove in the garage suite), and two backup Generac generators to ensure peace of mind. Located just 25 minutes from Inverness and the world-renowned Cabot Links and Cabot Cliffs golf courses, and 20 minutes from the vibrant community of Chéticamp and the entrance to Cape Breton Highlands National Park, this property is both a private sanctuary and a gateway to adventure.
