A beautiful stone walkway creates a grand entrance, leading into a centre hall layout that showcases the home’s original character. The main level is bright and welcoming, featuring a spacious living room with abundant natural light, hardwood floors, and a charming propane fireplace. The kitchen offers room for cooking and gathering, complete with an eating area, while a separate formal dining room provides more space for hosting.

Upstairs, are four bedrooms, all with hardwood flooring, along with a full bath. The lower level is partially finished and provides extensive storage. An extra deep attached garage can accommodate two vehicles or one plus a workshop. All of this plus a ducted heat pump which ensures comfort all year with heating and cooling. Despite its serene, nature rich setting, the property sits in the heart of the city. Nearby amenities are easily reached, including major shopping areas such as malls and Dartmouth Crossing, as well as grocery stores and everyday conveniences. Commuting is simple with quick access to highways, and both Downtown Dartmouth and Halifax are only minutes away. Dartmouth—the City of Lakes—offers endless outdoor activities, cafés, shops, gyms, restaurants, and more.
