Overview:

This is one of those rare places where the demands of every day life start receding from consciousness the moment you start down the long secluded drive. The inviting cottage, the wide expanse of the Mira, the dappled sunlight filtering through the birch branches make this a perfect place to get away from it all and it's only 20 minutes from Sydney. Sheltered by stately birches, the cottage is well situated on a rise above the river bank. Just down a short path is a permanent dock ready for moorage. It's partially protected from the elements by a substantial peninsula but there's plenty of maneuvering room as the Mira is very wide at this location. Sail and larger boats make sense here as the Mira meets the sea three miles to the east. Fishermen take note - eels, shad, trout and the odd salmon are very close to the dinner table! A detached garage and full basement provide for storage needs. The land and home are well tended and ready for a new owner.

Notable:

WATER ACTIVITIES: If boating, fishing and swimming top your list of leisuretime pursuits, this inviting vacation property merits attention. It is an excellent choice for a boat owner. The river is wide and deep enough (using the permanent dock) for a boat of significant size. The open ocean is 3 miles east of this property via the Mira River.

PRIVACY: Even though there are neighbors around this property, they are rarely in residence as this area is one comprised primarily of vacation property owners. It is very quiet and peaceful with no road or city noise.

Cape Breton bullet Sydney Web Site (map page)
City of Sydney web site with historical and present day info. Very heavy on business promotion and capturing the tourist dollar, but it's a start on learning about the city - especially what services and purchases are available. This link takes you to the map page where you can focus in on various sections of Sydney. Maps are annotated with items like hospitals. The maps are not very easy to read as the image quality is low, but the overall picture of how Sydney is laid out and what is there is worth the look.
