Welcome to this meticulously maintained 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath character home in the sought-after community of Westmount! Full of charm and thoughtful updates, this home beautifully blends timeless character with modern convenience. Step inside to a huge mudroom offering plenty of storage and a convenient powder room, while hardwood floors and newer windows add warmth and comfort throughout. The large yet cozy living room with a WETT certified fireplace and stunning hearth is the perfect sanctuary after a long day, boasting beautiful hardwood floors and lots of light. The expansive kitchen is truly a chef's dream, featuring granite countertops, a huge island with built-in seating for 4, sleek appliances, and ample storage. A beautiful, window-lined formal dining room with timeless built-ins offers flexibility for entertaining, maybe a children’s playroom, or a studio space for creative minds. Upstairs, discover a gorgeous Tuscany-inspired primary bedroom with vaulted ceilings, heated floors, a propane stove, and two charming window seats that create the perfect spot to curl up with a good book and a glass of wine. Two more generously sized bedrooms, a fourth smaller bedroom or perfect office, and a large main bathroom complete this level, while the finished attic space with skylights offers even more possibilities. The large, dry basement provides excellent storage or potential for additional living space. And the best part? This entire home has ducted AC (Lennox), such treat for a home of this age. Outside, the spacious yard is ready for your vision and personal touches. Updates include (2026) a rebuilt chimney, and a new roof, offering, new front stairs and back landing as well as some interior and exterior painting. Ideally located close to some of the area’s best schools, downtown Halifax, Halifax Shopping Centre, and Flynn Park, this charming Westmount home offers character, space, and convenience in one wonderful package!
