Property Description
Your all-inclusive oceanfront retreat on a pristine white sand beach. Set on 3.16 acres with approximately 198 feet of direct ocean frontage, this rare and sought-after property is perfectly positioned on iconic John Dan's Cove -one of Pictou Island's most treasured stretches of white sand beach. Thoughtfully prepared for off-grid living, this property allows you to step directly into the Pictou Island lifestyle from day one. A comprehensive list of inclusions and infrastructure is already in place, offering both immediate enjoyment and a seamless path to future development. Features include: 18' x 8' (2006) Prowler Lynx trailer with full kitchen and bathroom (toilet, shower, propane stove, oven, microwave, fridge); 20' x 25' Cover-Tech tent structure on wooden posts; 2010 GMC Sierra; 600-foot private driveway installed; Engineered septic system (tank and field); 91-foot drilled well; 20 of 25 Bigfoot posts installed for future cottage; Waterline and electrical conduit run to the well; 3500W generator and water pump; 6 Koltech windows and 1 Koltech patio door; On-site materials for a ~300 sq ft screened porch; Deeded right-of-way access via Josh and Julia's Way. Here, summer lingers a little longer. The waters of the Northumberland Strait - known to be the warmest north of the Carolinas - invite daily swims, while expansive sunsets create a backdrop that never feels ordinary. Often referred to as the “jewel of the Northumberland Strait,” Pictou Island offers a vibrant, welcoming community rooted in connection, and coastal beauty. Looking ahead, a 2025 builder estimate suggests a total investment of approximately $350,000 + HST for a completed beachfront retreat as per the available plans. This includes the land ($175,000), cottage construction to roof-tight ($125,000 + HST), and estimated finishes, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing ($50,000 + HST). Lumber is also on site for decks, stairs to the beach, and/or porches, with only labour costs remaining.
