2224 Maitland Street — Halifax Peninsula, Nova Scotia

A registered heritage home with a private fenced yard and off-street parking, under a ten-minute walk from downtown. On this part of the peninsula you rarely get one of those three. Here you get all of them. Behind the heritage facade, 2224 Maitland has been quietly brought up to date. The main level is bright and open with beautiful natural light, new flooring throughout, and a flow between the living space and kitchen that makes the footprint feel generous. The kitchen has a new dishwasher, and a new ventless washer/dryer combo handles laundry. A heat pump keeps the house comfortable year-round and the winter bills in check. Above, the classic 1.5-storey form gives you two bedrooms under the eaves, with a full bath and a half bath across the two levels. Out back is the part that sells this house. The fenced yard is private and spacious - perfect for morning coffee, a dog, a garden, a table full of people in July. The parking means you're not hunting for a spot on the street at six o'clock. Zoned CEN-1 paired with a heritage designation offers unique development opportunities. Step outside into the best of the north end: the restaurants, cafés and independent shops of Agricola and Gottingen are minutes on foot, the Common is a stones throw away, and the downtown core is an easy walk. A walkable, characterful pocket of Halifax that people spend years trying to buy into. Heritage character, updated where it counts, with the yard and the parking almost nobody in this neighbourhood has. (id:63357)
