Vacant Waterfront Land on Main Street, Louisbourg-With Expected Approval for Zoning Change to UR2 An exceptional opportunity awaits with this vacant waterfront property in historic Louisbourg. This 0.96-acre cleared land parcel, combined with a 0.67-acre water lot, offers panoramic, unobstructed views of the harbour leading into the Atlantic Ocean-with the Fortress of Louisbourg visible from your private shoreline. Currently zoned Mixed Use (MU), the property has expected approval for rezoning to Low Density Urban Residential (UR2), and this will be updated once officially approved by the Cape Breton Regional Municipality (CBRM). This designation supports a range of development options, including single-unit and two-unit homes, as well as select community and cultural uses. It's an ideal setting for someone looking to build a peaceful residence or a thoughtfully designed project that complements the surrounding neighbourhood. Louisbourg is best known as home to the Fortress of Louisbourg National Historic Site, a major 18th-century French fortress and one of Nova Scotias most significant tourist attractions. The community also offers a vibrant maritime culture, working fishing wharves, and easy access to the scenic Kennington Cove Beach. It's a destination that blends rich history with natural beauty and coastal charm. Situated where Main Street meets Havenside Road, this unique property is within walking distance to local amenities and just minutes from the Louisbourg Lighthouse. It's a 12-minute drive to the Fortress and only 30 minutes to Sydney - making it a convenient yet tranquil retreat on Cape Bretons coast. Full details on MU and UR2 zoning are available from the Cape Breton Regional Municipality Planning & Development Department (online).
