Description

Welcome home to 31 Elaine Avenue - a lovingly maintained home nestled in the heart of Prospect Bay, just 25 minutes from Downtown Halifax. This is the one families drive out to see and come back to buy. The updated kitchen is the heart of this home. A spacious island serves as command central - coffee gets brewed, breakfasts get made, homework gets done. The kitchen flows into a formal dining room perfect for family meals, or step through the patio doors onto the private 16 x 11 deck and take in the fresh salt air. Outdoor living here isn't a season - it's a daily habit. The main level also offers a spacious living room, a primary bedroom, a second bedroom, and a full bath but the fully finished lower level is where this home truly sets itself apart. An impressive 19 x 12 office/den (currently being used as a 4th bedroom) - plus a recreation room, a bedroom and an oversized bath/laundry suite already roughed in for a second full bathroom. Whether you need space for growing kids, a home office, or extended family, this level adapts. Recent upgrades include 3 ductless heat pumps in 2025, new roof shingles and oil tank in 2024, chimney repointed in 2018, new septic in 2016, and drilled well. The fully fenced yard and the neighbourhood playground mean kids have room to run the moment they walk out the door. The school bus stops right at the road. A convenience store, NSLC, trails, and golf courses are all within easy reach - and Downtown Halifax is just a 25-minute drive. Homes offering this much space, this much flexibility, and this kind of coastal lifestyle are rare at this price point. Book your private viewing today.
