Discover a once-in-a-lifetime coastal canvas. This extraordinary 23.15 acre estate “Seawinds” offers an unparalleled opportunity where the sheer magnitude and beauty of the land dictate its value. This property commands elevated, sweeping views of Schnare Cove and Grave’s Island with a protected cove offering sheltered anchorage and 770 feet of water frontage that includes a pristine and private beach spanning 650 feet. With Mixed Use Zoning and an impressive 1,277 feet of road frontage, the possibilities are vast. Keep the entire parcel as a supreme private estate with endless space to build your architectural masterpiece, or explore the exceptional potential for subdivision. The property currently enjoys a peaceful rural charm, featuring fenced pastures that host local wildlife and a family of cattle that maintain the fields. Set back from Highway 3 with no direct neighbours, a gravel drive leads to an excellent barn/garage (24’ x 36’) and a beautifully maintained farmhouse built circa 1840. The 4-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom home (~2,200 SF) flawlessly blends historic character with crucial modern updates. It serves as an ideal residence while you build your dream home, or a charming future guest house. Beyond your private gates lies the legendary Chester lifestyle. Revered as a premier yachting destination and host to the iconic Chester Race Week, this vibrant coastal community blends rich maritime heritage with relaxed luxury. Spend your days at the seaside golf club, exploring artisan village boutiques, dining at local cafes, or setting sail straight from your own backyard into the world-renowned waters of Mahone Bay. Here, East Coast charm meets an active, sophisticated way of life.
