Prime Development Opportunity In Antigonish For Sale

Business description

Antigonish, home of Canada's #1 undergraduate school and central business district for the region, is undergoing major redevelopment with the soon to be completed TransCanada Highway extension.

The subject 3.95 acre parcel is flat and cleared, connected to municipal servicing, and is the first available parcel of land for all incoming traffic off the 102’s first exit into Antigonish from Halifax. There are 3 points of entrance to the property, with 2 currently in use along the approximate 350 feet of road fronting the existing TransCanada.

We feel this parcel is ideal for either a new Tuck Stop or Full Service Gas Bar with Fast food and Beverage offerings, new Hotel construction, Automobile or RV dealership, or perhaps a re-development of the existing building to accommodate food services to the easy access demands of highway and local traffic.

- It is understood, the Information and Tourism bureau will be moved to this intersection, almost adjacent to the subject property.
- It is understood, the town and county of Antigonish are focused on making this section of Antigonish the primary focus for attracting visitors and traffic to the Town.
- The site is located directly beside the brand new GCR Tire Centre. A card lock offering or some other offering that will attract and cater to an established trucking market would be a worthwhile consideration.
An asking price will soon be established. There is sufficient data from recent sales to support and suggest the bare land would have a value of not less than $800,000.

Location:

The Town of Antigonish was incorporated in 1889. Like many other communities in Nova Scotia, Antigonish Town prides itself on being able to offer a good standard of living and a unique quality of life to its citizens. Much of the history confirms our recognition of the importance of individuals, family, and the value of community.

Established as the Highland Heart of Nova Scotia, Antigonish is the home of the oldest continuously run Highland Games in North America. Each year, the "games" bring people from all over the world to witness these events and share in our culture and history. In all of this - and more - Antigonish Town has cooperated with Antigonish County and with other groups and organizations, large and small, to achieve outstanding success that is recognized around the world.

Established in 1853, St. Francis Xavier University moved its campus to Antigonish Town in 1855. StFX is now in the middle of an extensive building program, and in 2002 the citizens of the Town donated generously to the construction of the new Charles V. Keating Millennium Centre on campus. Antigonish's rich Architectural History also includes the foundation and establishment of the Sisters of St. Martha's Bethany House. The Sisters built St. Martha's Hospital in 1906 and a School of Nursing, which has become world renown. The strong "sense of community" was reflected in 1986 when Antigonish led the way in raising the initial $6,000,000 to build a new hospital. Mount St. Bernard College and St. Francis Xavier University have made the town their home. The relationships these institutions have interwoven with the Town make it the unique place it has become. Antigonish is indeed the centre for important Health and Educational institutions, which have essentially placed it on the map.
