Welcome to 2795 Joseph Howe Drive — a rare, turn-key investment opportunity in one of Halifax’s strongest rental corridors. This fully renovated two-unit property offers two spacious suites, separate power meters, private entrances, and a detached wired 1.5-car garage, making it ideal for both investors and owner-occupiers seeking strong rental income. The upper unit is a bright and expansive 3-bedroom + den, 3 full bathroom space, freshly painted with modern updates throughout. Flooded with natural light complements of the new windows and designed for comfortable living, this unit offers almost 1700 sq ft of finished living space with a flexible layout to attract high-quality long-term tenants. Downstairs, the lower unit is a completely newly constructed 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom suite—finished with contemporary materials, thoughtful design, and excellent ceiling height. This unit shows beautifully and is built to command premium rents from day one. Outside, you'll appreciate the newly laid sod, along with updated exterior siding and stonework, giving the property a crisp, modern look. The detached, wired 1.5-car garage offers excellent storage, workshop potential, or added rental value. Located directly on Joseph Howe Drive, you’re steps to transit, shopping, amenities, universities, and the Halifax peninsula—an unbeatable location for rental demand. Bonus Development Opportunity: The vacant lot next door is also available for purchase, giving you a total of 12,000 sq. ft. of space to build, expand, or enhance your investment portfolio. A fantastic chance to create additional units or explore future development potential (buyer to verify). Whether you’re looking for strong cash flow, long-term appreciation, or a living-plus-income setup, this property delivers.
