Thinking of listing with a realtor but testing the market beforehand looking for expressions of interest. It’s all about location and anyone who knows of Melmerby Beach, Kings Head, Pictou Co NS is well aware that properties here, especially located this close to the beach, seldom make it to a realtor’s listing and instead are sold privately.

It is situated on the Northumberland Strait which boasts the warmest waters north of the Carolina’s. While the structure was constructed around 1900 (circa), with the addition of a bathroom and pantry kitchen late 1960’s this is a basic building constructed primarily of barn board.
