Set on a corner lot, this solid brick detached home offers a rare opportunity to secure space, updates, and long-term at a price point that's becoming harder to find. While some cosmetic work remains, the major fundamentals are already in place—making this an ideal option for buyers willing to add value over time. The home features four bedrooms with flexibility for a fifth, along with two full bathrooms (one completed and the second currently being finished). The lower level includes a large living area that lends itself well to an in-law setup or future rental configuration, depending on a buyer’s needs and vision. Key improvements have already been completed, including a heat pump for efficient heating and cooling, a newer roof (7 years old), a 200-amp electrical panel, and a sump pump. An attached garage adds everyday convenience, while an existing slab in the backyard provides the option for a future garage or accessory suite. Located within walking distance to schools and transit, just minutes to groceries and amenities, 15 minutes to Dartmouth Crossing, and 20 minutes to downtown Halifax, the location adds real, practical value. For buyers looking beyond surface finishes and focused on structure, layout, and long-termpotential, this property represents a smart and strategic purchase under $500,000.
