Property Description

78 acres, panoramic Bras d'Or Lake views, and a furnished four-bedroom country home. This Johnstown property offers space, privacy and an incredible Cape Breton setting. Set well back from the road and surrounded by its own acreage, the two-storey home enjoys beautiful views across the Bras d'Or Lake from both inside and out. Large windows brighten the open main level, while the screened front porch, deck and firepit area provide inviting spaces to enjoy the property and the sunsets. Inside, the home offers four bedrooms, two bathrooms and plenty of character. Recent updates include a renovated bathroom with walk-in shower, double vanity and barn-style sliding door; an updated kitchen with new sink and epoxy countertops; and a convenient main-floor laundry area with sink. A heat pump and oil gravity stove provide heating options throughout the seasons. Upstairs, the spacious 2 bedrooms and office nook take advantage of the Bras d'Or Lake views, along with 2 additional bedrooms and a bathroom featuring a clawfoot tub with shower and generous storage. The home is currently operating as an Airbnb and is being offered fully furnished and equipped, creating the option to continue welcoming guests, use it as a Cape Breton getaway, or simply move in and make it your own. The entire 78-acre parcel is located on the same side of Highway 4 as the home and barn, creating one continuous property with plenty of room to explore. While this is a water-view property, access to the Bras d'Or Lake is just minutes away at Johnstown Landing, a community area offering beach access, a wharf and boat launch. Whether you're looking for a year-round home, recreational retreat or a property with an established short-term rental history, this one offers an unusual combination of acreage, views and versatility in the heart of Cape Breton.
