Set on 2.8 acres in the rural community of Benacadie, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers the opportunity to enjoy country living just 40 minutes from Sydney. Surrounded by mature trees and natural woodland, the property provides a peaceful setting with plenty of outdoor space to enjoy. The home offers over 1,200 square feet of living space on the main level and includes a spacious living room, dining area, kitchen, full bath, two bedrooms, and a large den/family room addition. Outside, you'll find a circular driveway, two storage sheds, and a generous yard ideal for gardening, recreation, or simply enjoying the privacy of rural Cape Breton living. One of the sheds is currently wired with power. The home is serviced by a well and septic system and features multiple heating options, including a wood stove and pellet stove. The undeveloped basement offers additional storage space and potential for future development. This property will appeal to buyers looking for an affordable rural home with acreage and the opportunity to build equity through repairs and improvements. While offering plenty of potential, buyers should expect that some repairs and updates will be required. Property is being sold as is.
