About 538 Main Street
An exceptional mixed-use opportunity in the heart of Mahone Bay, 538 Main Street combines flexible commercial space with a registered Short-Term Rental above in one of Nova Scotia’s most desirable seaside communities. The street-level commercial space, currently home to Eli & Trix, offers excellent Main Street visibility, an inviting retail/dining area and a fully equipped commercial kitchen. The flexible layout could potentially accommodate multiple commercial spaces. At the rear, additional office space with its own separate entrance offers further potential for independent rental, professional or business use. The current owner operates the restaurant and may consider leasing the commercial space from a new owner, providing the potential for an established commercial tenant from the outset. Above, a spacious three-bedroom registered Short-Term Rental provides an established accommodation and income opportunity. The upper level offers further flexibility, with potential to be reconfigured into two separate suites, including a two-bedroom and a one-bedroom unit, subject to applicable municipal approvals. A brand-new metal roof, installed in August 2026, is a significant recent improvement. Located within Mahone Bay’s vibrant commercial core, the property is surrounded by shops, restaurants, cafés and galleries and is just steps from the waterfront. With adaptable commercial, office and residential spaces under one roof, 538 Main Street offers multiple possibilities for income generation, business use or a live-work investment in one of the South Shore’s most sought-after communities.
