Acreage with Cabin for Sale - Cape Breton Farm, Nova Scotia.

My Tumberland homestead is currently not for sale.

57 acres with cabin & brook running through. Currently not for sale.

The cabin was built in 2006/2007 using natural building methods, using hand tools and no power. The garden is a pioneer project in the same natural way, clearing land with pickaxe and spade to grow a bounty of food 100% organically.

Location: Middle River, Victoria County, Cape Breton, NS
10'x20' cabin plus loft, with wood stove and built-in shelves/table
16'x20' tool shed / wood shed
cords and cords of split seasoned firewood (covered and dry)
5'x16' sheltered (roofed) tent pad which is attached to wood shed
foundation holes for a new, 2nd cabin (meaning a cleared area in a great location with holes dug, but no building yet, the holes are set for a 16' x 24' cabin)
outhouse (dry toilet)
10'x10' kitchen shelter right next to the brook (I used it to do dishes a lot)
ca. 10'x16' deck as tent pad in the forest (can hold a MEC basecamp tent to sleep a whole family) - no roof on this one
ca. 16x16 fenced area with gate that could be used as a pen.
2'x16' cold frame in garden
organic garden consisting mostly of perennials ready to harvest each year: sage, thyme, chives, lovage, lemon balm, oregano, strawberries, highbush blueberry, black currants, rhubarb, tulips (don't eat), crocuses (yum yum), etc. and a few cultivated beds for annual veggies.
7 very rough compost bins, 4 of them filled with decaying goodies in it.
some maintained trails, and forest sections with lower branches pruned
a long narrow natural meadow that runs parallel to brook, in the center of the property, ready for grazing animals. I thinned out many trees on the meadow to maintain it and make it larger.
