A rare opportunity awaits on one of Dartmouth’s most desirable lakefront streets. Homes on this quiet cul de sac with unobstructed views of and access to Oathill Lake, seldom come to market. At 48 Lorne Avenue, every season brings lake living: swimming, paddleboarding, canoeing, kayaking, skating, fishing, or simply enjoying peaceful nature. 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. Both the front and back decks are easily accessible, extending living space outdoors. This level also has a convenient half bath and a flex-space currently used for workshop and storage, which could be adapted to suit other needs. 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. This home blends the tranquility of lakeside living with the convenience of an urban location, creating a truly exceptional lifestyle. Be sure to view the virtual tour and book your private viewing.
