Welcome to 209 Champlain Avenue, a 4 level split with loads of space, home set on a generously sized lot, perched high above the city with sweeping views over Sydney, the harbour, and surrounding neighbourhoods. This elevated position offers a standout vantage point while still being close to everything you need. Located within walking distance to Cape Breton Regional Hospital and just minutes from downtown Sydney, this home combines convenience with a desirable residential setting. Inside, the front door opens into a large, bright living room filled with natural light. From here, the layout flows into the kitchen and dining area. The kitchen features a side entrance that leads directly to the side deck—perfect for easy outdoor access and everyday functionality. Off the dining area, the split staircase leads both up and down, creating a practical and flexible floor plan. The upper level offers three bedrooms, including a generously sized primary bedroom, along with a full four-piece bathroom. On the lower level, you’ll find a spacious and bright rec room, a fourth bedroom, and a three-piece bathroom—ideal for guests, teens, or additional living space. The stairway continues down to the unfinished basement, which includes the laundry area and a walk-out to the backyard, offering excellent storage, workshop potential, or future development options. This home features four bedrooms and two full bathrooms and is in good overall condition. Heating is provided by electric hot water! The property is very livable as-is, while also offering strong potential to modernize, renovate, or even explore conversion to a two-unit configuration (subject to buyer verification). A solid family home in a prime Sydney location—ready for its next chapter.
