Luxurious dream home on Cape Breton on the east coast of Canada with fantastic lake views

Luxurious dream home with fantastic lake views and south-facing orientation on Cape Breton on the east coast of Canada.
Have you always wanted to live right on the water, in a large, modern house with every conceivable comfort, in the middle of a unique natural landscape and with your own lakeshore? Be self-sufficient without sacrificing luxury? Then your dream could now come true.

The house was completed in 2022, but has only been lived in for a few weeks since then. It is practically brand new, equipped to a high standard, modernly furnished and ready to move into immediately. The total living space is approx. 300 m², spread over three floors and two separate residential units. The main living area (approx. 250 m²) includes the two upper floors with a total of 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a large living room with open kitchen and an impressively large veranda (30 m²) with spectacular lake views.

On the first floor there is a separate, fully furnished 2-room apartment (approx. 55 m²) with a magnificent view of the lake. The self-contained apartment with kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and its own outside access can also be used as a rental unit. Both residential units are separated from each other by a lockable connecting door.
The sunny property is south-facing and flooded with light. Most of the rooms have a fantastic lake view and several skylights allow an unobstructed view of the sky.

The house is located directly on the shore of the famous Bras d'Or Lake, only approx. 35 m from the water. With its large windows and veranda, it offers a breathtaking 180° panoramic view over the huge lake. The private beach and shoreline is 118 meters long, and direct access to the lake is possible from anywhere. The shoreline offers ideal conditions for a jetty or to launch a boat (e.g. canoe). The area is very popular with anglers, sailors and water sports enthusiasts.

A separate, spacious double garage with electric door and remote control offers plenty of additional storage space.

The house was built to the highest safety and quality standards. Particular attention was also paid to winter resistance (ICF foundation/frost wall). The house is heated by a modern gas heating system. All bathrooms and the apartment on the first floor can also be heated by electric underfloor heating.

In the living room on the upper floor there is a large central wood-burning fireplace with a panoramic view of the lake, which can be used open or closed. The fireplace has been designed so that its warm air can also be used to heat the two upper floors.

All windows and doors are branded products. They are thermally insulated and have removable fly screens. They are fitted with matching, light-colored pleated blinds on the inside for privacy and sun protection.
The floors in the entire main living area and in the staircases are covered with solid maple parquet. Tiles or high-quality laminate were used in the other rooms.

Overview:
The house has a total of 8 bedrooms and 3 modern full bathrooms. All bedrooms have built-in wardrobes. On the 2nd floor there is an exceptionally spacious master bedroom. A spacious living room with fireplace, open kitchen with dining area and panoramic window front is located on the 1st floor. The apartment on the first floor has two rooms with lake views (bedroom and living room with fully equipped eat-in kitchen) and a private bathroom. Furthermore, there are three storage and utility rooms on the first floor, a technical and heating room, as well as a small utility room with high-quality, new appliances (washing machine and dryer from Miele).

This luxurious, unique home is located in the province of Nova Scotia on Cape Breton Island in the community of Malagawatch. Off Marble Mountain Road, it is located directly on Bras d'OR Lake on a 1.5 hectare wooded south facing lot. It is fully developed (electric, gas, water, septic, internet, road) and has a private 118 m. of paved shoreline. To the west of the property is another small lake, half of which belongs to the property.

Extensive shopping facilities, hospitals, doctors, schools, government offices, hardware stores, gas stations, pharmacies, restaurants etc. are located in Port Hawksbury or Whycocomagh, approx. 20-30 minutes away by car. Halifax International Airport is served by direct flights from Europe (flight time from Frankfurt approx. 6-7 hours). The drive from Halifax to the house takes just under 3 hours.
