On the upper level, two charming bedrooms showcase original hardwood floors that lend timeless character to the modern updates. Here you will also find attic access for extra storage. A thoughtfully designed family room addition (2007) serves as the home's focal point, featuring a full bath and seamless transition to a beautifully fenced backyard oasis. Below, a finished lower-level recreation room offers the perfect space for leisure, complete with storage & laundry. Situated 10 min from downtown, and 5 min from the Halifax Shopping Center.
