Storybook charm on one of Halifax’s beloved South End streets. Set behind a picket fence and vibrant mature gardens, this striking blue character home welcomes you with decorative gables, a covered front porch and a classic entry with leaded glass sidelights. Inside, the sun-filled living room is a showstopper with beamed ceilings, a working fireplace, graceful archways and a wall of windows overlooking the gardens. The formal dining room flows to the kitchen and bright breakfast nook, while a mudroom with deck access and a powder room complete the main level. Upstairs offers three bedrooms, including a primary retreat with walk-in closet and 3-piece ensuite with glass shower, plus a 4-piece bath with soaker tub and convenient second-floor laundry. The lower level adds a spacious rec room, office/den, half bath and generous storage/workshop space.

Recent updates include roof (2020), hot water heater (2022), exterior paint (2025), two mini splits (2026) and fresh interior paint on the main and upper levels (2026). Wood floors throughout, in-floor heat on the main level and a detached garage. Close to universities, hospitals, schools, shops and downtown.
