1870 Clementsvale Rd, Bear River, NS

Welcome to 1870 Clementsvale Road, the historic William Riordan Building, perched on pilings above the tidal Bear River in the heart of this artisan village. With roots going back to the 1850s and moved to its current riverside setting in 1903, this Greek Revival landmark offers roughly 2, 100 sq. ft. of character-filled space with panoramic water views from nearly every angle. Most recently home to a beloved local café, the building's open main floor features a kitchen, cozy nooks, and a dining area. It's ready to welcome its next concept, whether that's a café, gallery, artist studio, or community gathering spot. Upstairs, a private 1-bedroom space with its own deck over the water has the potential to be a rental suite. Currently vacant, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Bear River's history in one of Nova Scotia's most picturesque riverside communities.
