A Rare Opportunity on Historic McNutts Island This exceptional offering includes two lots totaling approximately 100 acres, with over 900 feet of stunning shoreline on McNutts Island -a rare chance to own a significant piece of Nova Scotia’s rugged coastline. The land is treed, private, and completely off-grid, accessible only by boat from the nearby mainland wharf. An ATV road winds through the island, passing the property on its way to the Cape Roseway Lighthouse, making exploration and access within the island convenient. McNutts Island is rich in both natural beauty and history. Named after Colonel Alexander McNutt, who settled here in the 1760s, the island is home to scenic biking trails, dense woodlands, and dramatic ocean views. During WWII, it was fortified to help protect Shelburne Harbour, and remnants of that era still remain today. The Cape Roseway Lighthouse, standing proudly at the island’s southern tip, adds to its unique charm. Whether you dream of building a private retreat, exploring development opportunities, or preserving a rare stretch of Nova Scotia’s coastline, this dual-lot property offers unmatched potential. With its history, natural beauty, and total privacy, McNutts Island is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
