Not just a 60 acre island with a cottage, this is a properly constructed home. Saddle Island is a jewel set in the warm waters of the Northumberland Strait offering a dynamic range of ever-changing panoramas and scenery, from the extensive inner sand bars to the rugged outcrops facing out into the ocean, to the trees and plants decorating this 60 acre island that boasts 2 miles of oceanfront. Far from remote, full services are nearby and easily reached either by boat to access points at Malagash Wharf, Tatamagouche Landing, Wallace Harbour, Fox Harb'r Resort, Pugwash Harbour or at low tide walk across the sand or by the Argo amphibious vehicle. The Argo is housed in a purpose built shed on the 2 acre Lot included in the purchase price. The lot is located minutes from the island on the Blue Sea Landing development which also provides access to facilities there, that include a fenced hard tennis court, access to the private warm water beach and year-round road access. The home on the island is powered off grid by a computer controlled OutBack solar energy storage system connecting a Generac Power supply with propane back-up and appliances. Built in 2014 the home has metal roof, well and septic system and has withstood all weather Mother Nature has tested her with. Accommodation is generous, offering an open concept living space, loft, two full bathrooms and two bedrooms with ocean views at every conceivable angle making this an amazing private getaway. For the developer there are endless opportunities to imagine such as a resort, vacation destination, golf course, nature retreat, glamping sites, exclusive hotel with a runway for aircraft. Whether for private use or development Saddle Island offers the perfect blend of sand and sea, wildlife and convenience, in a tremendous location near Jost Winery, the full-service town of Tatamagouche with its medical facilities, restaurants, cafes and stores, Ski Wentworth, Fox Harbr and all the attractions of the area.
