Nestled along the banks of the St. Mary’s River in Mill Cove and within the village limits of Sherbrooke, this unique property offers tranquility, opportunity, and breathtaking water views. Just a short walk from Historic Sherbrooke Village, this once-thriving seasonal business featured and inground pool and 26 lots in total 18 of which were fully serviced - all spread across a picturesque landscape with approximately 700 feet of water frontage. The property provides boating access to the Northwest Arm, the beautiful St. Mary’s River, and the Atlantic Ocean beyond making it an ideal location for a tourism business, seasonal getaway, or year-round home. The existing two-bedroom residence is accompanied by an additional outbuilding that once housed a laundry, office, and washroom facilities. While the buildings require repairs, much of the plumbing infrastructure remains in place and could be restored. The sellers are currently renovating the property beginning with new steel roofs and a new 200-amp electrical service has recently been installed, setting the stage for future redevelopment. Enjoy a variety of water activities such as canoeing, kayaking, sailing, paddle boarding, and boating in summer; ice fishing and skating in winter all from your doorstep. Located just minutes from the historic village of Sherbrooke, you’ll find all the essentials including medical services, shops, restaurants, and banking. Whether you’re looking to revive a riverside business, create a private retreat, or build your dream home on the water, this property offers endless potential and the best of East Coast living. The Sellers are willing to negotiate the inclusion of the 30' Cedar Creek 5th wheel RV into the sale.
Exiting the Village of Sherbrooke via Sonora Rd the property will be on the right hand side just past the Sawmill.
