Round Island

More than five centuries ago, Portuguese anglers first settled on Nova Scotia's Cape Breton Island at what was then called San Pedro, making it one of the first sites to be settled by Europeans in the New World. Today known as Saint Peter's, the quaint town of about 2,600 sits on the narrow isthmus separating the southern end of Bras d'Or Lake – known as "North America's Inland Sea" – from St. Peter's Bay and the Atlantic Ocean.

More than five centuries ago, Portuguese anglers first settled on Nova Scotia's Cape Breton Island at what was then called San Pedro, making it one of the first sites to be settled by Europeans in the New World. Today known as Saint Peter's, the quaint town of about 2,600 sits on the narrow isthmus separating the southern end of Bras d'Or Lake – known as "North America's Inland Sea" – from St. Peter's Bay and the Atlantic Ocean.

Just a few miles away on the north side of Bras d'Or Lake lies Round Island, 48 acres of unbelievable forest beauty boasting multiple lakes and streams. With its abundance of wildflowers and resident eagles and deer, the island remains an untouched wilderness offering safety, privacy, gorgeous beaches, and sand spits around the three points of the island, all just awaiting the development of a fantastic multi-family getaway. Round Island's various altitudes make it ideal for creating the dramatic and elaborate private compound of your dreams. For the entrepreneur, the island presents an incredible opportunity for the creation of a vacation property that would offer guests a once-in-a-lifetime Nova Scotian experience.

While still having easy ocean access, Round Island's location within the largest lake on Cape Breton Island makes it better protected from the weather and other harsh elements that challenge islands located directly on the ocean. With some 450 square miles in total area, Bras d'Or Lake is a popular destination for cruising yachts as well as home to several world-renowned golf courses and resorts, all located within a short distance of Round Island. And just 15 minutes away is lovely St. Peter's, with its fascinating history, interesting attractions, unique events, and all the amenities one might need.

A 30 ft. cabin cruiser that is docked at St. Peter's Marina is included in the sale with the island (see pictures in gallery).
