With a combined total of 8,217 sq ft of land and separate PID numbers, this package includes a spacious 4-bedroom family home and a 2-unit over/under duplex, both zoned ER-3, allowing up to four units per lot. Whether you’re an investor, developer, or a homeowner seeking space, flexibility, and location, this opportunity is unmatched. The stately two-storey family residence at 1874 Seldon showcases nearly 3,000 sq ft of living space and timeless character throughout. From its elegant bay windows and original hardwood floors to ornate mouldings, 10-foot ceilings, and a dramatic double living room with fireplace, the home offers old-world charm with space to modernize. Highlights include a large formal dining room, sun-filled family room, upstairs laundry, and a primary suite featuring an ensuite with sunken tub. The lower level adds storage, utility space, a wine cellar, and a built-in garage, while the private backyard with mature trees and a garden shed offers a serene urban retreat. Next door, 1878 Seldon is a classic duplex with a 1-bedroom and a 2-bedroom unit. Though in need of a full renovation, the building offers strong value-add potential, ideal for rental income, redevelopment, or conversion to multiple condo-style units. Wide plank wood floors, charming French doors, and built-in shelving add architectural appeal. Both properties are located on a quiet, tree-lined street just minutes from hospitals, universities, the waterfront, and downtown Halifax. This is a rare chance to own side-by-side parcels in an established neighbourhood with flexible zoning—ideal for investors seeking density or families looking to live next to rental or extended family units.
