If you’ve ever been interested in acquiring your own private island or mansion in the middle of nowhere, now’s your chance.
There have been a couple recent real estate listings in Yarmouth County that have drawn attention.
Doctor’s Island in the middle of Yarmouth Harbour is up for grabs for $100,000.
It’s listed as a three-acre, untouched property easily accessible by boat from Killam’s Wharf.
Meanwhile on Robert’s Island, a legendary property named Shangri-La is available for a cool $7.8 million dollars.
The property sits on 290 acres and was once the summer home for Italian Aristocrat Baron Carlo Amato.
The property – and former owner – have been the subject of numerous write-ups over the years in publications such as the New York Times, CBC, and Macleans magazine, mostly for the famous wild boar hunts of the past.
