Welcome to 351 Cottage Road, a timeless family home in the heart of Sydney, where classic character meets thoughtful modern updates. Set on a family-friendly double lot, room for a garage! This two-storey home has been well cared for over the years and is truly move-in ready. Step through the front door into a spacious and practical mudroom featuring a built-in bench, and smart storage—perfect for Cape Breton living. From here, you’re welcomed into a beautiful foyer highlighted by an original wood staircase that immediately sets the tone. New hardwood floors flow throughout the main level. To the left of the foyer is a bright, open living room that connects seamlessly to the open concept sitting room, and eat in kitchen. The kitchen has been beautifully renovated with custom white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, modern lighting, and a pantry offering excellent storage. Upstairs, the second level features two bedrooms and a fully renovated bathroom with infloor heating. The guest bedroom sits conveniently at the top of the stairs, while the oversized primary bedroom is tucked down the hall and can easily be divided back into two bedrooms. The primary includes a walk-in closet that leads directly into the main bath, which showcases custom tile work, a soaker tub, rain showerhead, towel warmer, and a stylish vanity. The walkout basement is unfinished and provides excellent storage or future development. A Steffes ETS hot water furnace adds to the home’s energy efficiency, blending modern comfort with original charm. Located in the heart of Sydney, this home is within walking distance to amenities, schools and just seconds from Cape Breton Regional Hospital. A warm, character-filled home with modern efficiency—351 Cottage Road is one you’ll want to see in person.
