Homesite 4

Homesite 4 ~ PID 35207000 ~ Waterfront: 273ft ~ 2.83 Acres ~ $65,500CND

Lot 4 Oceanfront property plot planThis outstanding 2.8 acre property has more than 280 feet of prime Nova Scotia oceanfront. The topography rises slightly from the main road before beginning a gradual slope down to the ocean. The water views are spectacular. The shape of the land at the ocean opens the view to the mouth of Liscomb Harbour. This visual extends for several miles toward the lighthouse. The sunrise views here are something special.
 
There are several possible building sites where the waterviews can be optimized. Some interesting undulations create small hillocks with potential for maximum sun. The property is covered with healthy, spruce forest. On the beach some interesting large rock formations represent opportunities to integrate sun decks, barbeque pits or gazebos right at the waters edge.
 
At the asking price this large oceanfront acreage represents excellent investment value.

Watch the video taken in October 2009 of the access road into Homesite 4

We recently uncovered an old access road near the property line between lots 4 and 5. After some clearing and a little grading, this old road took us approximately two hundred feet into the property ending at a small rise. Should the owners wish to share a driveway this road could be easily continued into the center of both lots 4 and 5.

There is a small wetland extending from the edge of the old road into lot 5. Looking more carefully at the plant life we discovered hundreds of pitcher plants thriving there. This species of pitcher plant has a unique flower that even looks carnivorous!

Carnivorous plants are highly evolved adaptations to low-nutrient environments. These plants obtain nutrients by trapping and digesting various invertebrates, and occasionally even small frogs and mammals. Because insects are the most common prey for carnivorous plants, they are sometimes called insectivorous plants. Most plants absorb nitrogen from the soil through their roots. But carnivorous plants absorb nitrogen from their animal prey through their leaves.  Learn more about Pitcher Plants on YouTube
