The Digby Neck, Living in a Geological Adventure!
Over a half mile of stunning lava-ledge ocean frontage; 210 acres...all for a mere $495,000!
This property harkens back fondly to the good old days when real estate investors, of the land-banking bent, could readily find large ocean front parcels in Nova Scotia and add them to asset portfolios designed to secure their wealth against the vagaries in the stock and financial markets. Large holdings of land with enduring value/utility (e.g., ocean frontage) have also proven over time to be a great hedge against devastating swings in the currency markets.
