About 458 Maple Drive
Welcome to the Round House of Cape George Estates, an exceptional Deltec-designed, 18-sided home on 2.7 acres with 200 feet of deep, sheltered waterfront on the Bras d’Or Lake. With seven south-facing sides of Marvin Integrity windows on both levels, the home is filled with natural light and offers sweeping water views. The Bras d’Or here is remarkably deep - large enough to even accommodate a 140-foot yacht that came through St. George’s Channel last year - making it a boater’s dream. Inside, 3,350 square feet of living space showcase high-end finishes and a thoughtful layout. On the upper level, you’ll find a spacious great room with 3/4" solid maple flooring, cedar ceiling, and a stone fireplace with gas insert and blower. The kitchen offers quartz countertops, gas range, French-door refrigerator, pantry with chest freezer, and extensive quality cookware. This level also features a large primary bedroom with a stunning ensuite bathroom, a generous walk-in pantry, and a convenient half bath. Additional highlights include a wet bar, stereo sound system, central vacuum, dedicated laundry room, and climate-controlled attic. It is the perfect space for entertaining guests and enjoying the views. A custom iron spiral staircase leads down to the lower level, where a bright, above-grade seating area opens to two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom. A Napoleon woodstove adds warmth and character. The home includes a brand-new Move Air heat pump system (2024, with 10-year warranty) providing whole-home heating and cooling. Outside, enjoy a 160-sq-ft deck with views of sailboats in the channel, a detached 26' x 32' two-car garage with extra storage, a gravel RV parking area with 110V hookup, and a marine-treated shore platform with permits for a floating dock and mooring. This remarkable property comes fully furnished with beautiful solid hardwood furniture offering a true turnkey opportunity to own on one of Cape Breton’s most unique and admired waterfront homes.
