Embrace the dream of your own private island. Discover the rare beauty of Henry Island, a 200-acre jewel in Cape Breton, where an iconic working lighthouse illuminates endless possibilities for your coastal haven. Situated in the Gulf of St. Lawrence and accessible only by boat or helicopter, a tradition of relaxation and reflection awaits you amidst the nature on the island. The unique topography of this teardrop-shaped island allows for a vast number of development opportunities and is currently home to a beautiful 100-year-old 53-foot-high lighthouse and lighthouse keeper's home. The present owners took on the mission to restore the property to its condition when it was originally built in 1902 as an ode to the beauty of its history. The home has a spacious kitchen providing the perfect gathering space for cooking, eating and conversation. An antique lighthouse keeper's wood cookstove remains as further homage to its history. The bedrooms offer views of the star-studded Cape Breton sky at night and let in plenty of sun during the day. The lighthouse is the focal point of the island, offering panoramic views of the ocean from atop it in the lantern room. It truly comes alive at dusk, illuminating the area. The island offers adventure like no other with its western side covered in trees to explore and 100-foot cliffs while its eastern side offers mile-long beaches perfect for swimming, kayaking and fishing from. In a book about the property Bill Baker wrote, why is an island with a lighthouse upon it such a magical place? Perhaps it is because it is a safe haven - something fathomable and friendly, far from the uncertainty of modern life; a place where one can feel in control of one's surroundings in a chaotic and complex world - but you will have to visit the island yourself to truly discover its magic.
