Sutherlands River, Nova Scotia
As of November 11, 2026, Sutherlands River has 1 active public listing.
A small, car-oriented Nova Scotia community area.
Sutherlands River offers a simple, low-key setting where driving connects you to what’s nearby.
This is a compactly mapped community area in Nova Scotia, defined more by its surroundings than by a dense centre of services. The appeal is straightforward: a quieter, less built-up feel with nearby reference points like Frank H MacDonald Academy and Scotian Glen Camp. It is not a place for a walkable routine or transit-based commuting, as reflected in the mobility scores.
The mapped community footprint is compact at 3.1 km², which suits buyers who want a clearly defined area rather than an expansive, spread-out search.
With Pine Tree, Thorburn, Kings Head, Coalburn, Anderson Mountain, and Merigomish adjacent, the area reads as part of a cluster of small places rather than a standalone hub.
Frank H MacDonald Academy is nearby, which can matter if being close to a school is part of how you filter properties.
Scotian Glen Camp is nearby, adding a clear recreation landmark in the immediate orbit of the area.
A weekend in Sutherlands River tends to look like staying local by choice and heading outward by car when you want a change of scene. Having Scotian Glen Camp nearby adds an easy-to-understand recreation reference point in the area’s orbit. Plans are typically organized around destinations rather than around a walkable strip of shops.
In Sutherlands River, look past the asking price at how the specific property supports a driving-first routine and what “nearby” actually means for the places you plan to use. The mobility scores are a useful reality check: walk, transit, and bike options are limited as measured.
Walkability score of 6, Transit access score of 0, and Bikeability score of 2 point to a car-oriented pattern. Confirm that the home’s practical needs—parking, storage, and access—match how you’ll live.
Frank H MacDonald Academy is nearby, but proximity alone doesn’t confirm eligibility or transportation. Verify school-related details directly rather than assuming they follow from distance.
Scotian Glen Camp is nearby, but closeness to a recreation site does not confirm any rights or access beyond what’s publicly available. Clarify what use is actually included with the property, if anything is being implied.
Listings here are mapped to a compact approximate area around the community centre. Confirm how a property’s location aligns with what you consider “in Sutherlands River,” especially near edges adjoining Pine Tree, Thorburn, Kings Head, Coalburn, Anderson Mountain, and Merigomish.

This description is compiled from the figures above and from published sources. It is not a statistic.
Sutherlands River’s current for-sale market is extremely thin, with just 1 active listing and a median asking price of $359,000. That limited inventory can make pricing feel lumpy across the community’s mix of rural properties and small pockets of homes, so buyers and investors should watch for micro-area and property-type differences rather than relying on broad averages. With listings averaging 98 days on market so far, sellers appear to be holding price expectations while demand remains selective, creating room for negotiation on condition, financing terms, or time-to-close.
