About this propertyMLS® 1299829
Perched on historic Bemister's Hill in the heart of Carbonear, this approximately 0.3-acre building lot offers an opportunity to build your home in one of Newfoundland's most storied communities. Known for its elevated setting and views over the town and harbour, Bemister's Hill has been part of Carbonear's history for generations. Named after the influential Bemister family, whose legacy helped shape the town's commercial and political development during the 19th century, the area blends rich heritage with everyday convenience. Carbonear itself is one of North America's oldest European settlements, with roots dating back to the early 1600s. Once a thriving centre of the salt cod trade and a community that withstood centuries of colonial conflict, today it offers the perfect balance of historic character and modern amenities. Schools, shopping, restaurants, healthcare services, recreation facilities, and the scenic waterfront are all just minutes away. Whether you're planning your forever home, a retirement retreat, or an investment for the future, this property provides the flexibility to create a residence tailored to your lifestyle while becoming part of a community with more than 400 years of history. **Purchasers are advised to complete their own due diligence regarding municipal approvals, zoning, permitted uses, lot development requirements, service availability, and all costs associated with future development.** (id:56688)
