Built in 1929, back when Almon Street was still called Paris Street, this home is quintessential Halifax character with a modern touch. Original hardwood floors, solid wood doors, tall baseboards and classic trim carry the charm, while high ceilings and a south-facing picture window flood the front living room with morning light. The formal dining room is anchored by a gorgeous wood-burning fireplace with a new insert and steel liner, the perfect spot to watch the snow fall this winter. The upper level, redone in 2024-25 with spray foam insulation, new flooring, drywall and window, is ideal for visiting guests or a hobby room. The lower level offers a second living space, kitchen area, a brand new full bathroom (2025), new flooring and trim, and plenty of storage, giving you two full baths in total. Comfort comes first here: a fully ducted air source heat pump keeps every room on all three floors comfortable year round, backed by 200-amp electrical service, updated lighting and fresh paint throughout (2026). Step outside to a rare find on the peninsula: a large, fully fenced backyard with a big deck, pergola, cedar shed, and gardens full of blueberries, blackberries, hops and arctic kiwi. Parking for two cars. Enjoy your morning coffee on the front deck and get to know your neighbours in this friendly community. Walk five minutes to the cafes, restaurants and shops of Agricola Street and the new Richmond Yards, or head the other way into the quiet, tree-lined West End. Groceries, pharmacies and banks are minutes away, the protected bike lanes take you right downtown, and quick access to Bayers Road and the MacKay Bridge makes commuting easy. Character, comfort and location, all in one. (id:374)
