Transforming Dreams into Reality:

Explore Our Previous Waterfront Developments as an Example of Possibilities

On this page, we invite you to explore some of our previous standout developments on Cape Breton Island. From tranquil family estates to modern vacation getaways, our clients trusted us to build their legacies on the exclusive properties we provided.

At Private Acres & Islands, we are not just sellers — we are creators of possibilities. As experienced land developers with over 35 years in the industry, we take pride in assisting our clients to develop land we sold into their dream property. Since we own every property we offer for sale, we are already very familiar with on-site conditions and can assist you in transforming a property into your dream. With no brokers involved, we communicate directly with our clients and provide a seamless, transparent communication process that puts you in control. Since 1989, we’ve sold more than 1,800 properties and assisted our clients in turning undeveloped land into their personal sanctuaries.

Whether you envision a cozy cottage by the lake or an expansive luxury estate with panoramic ocean views, Cape Breton Island offers the perfect canvas — and we’re here to help you bring your vision to life.
