34 Fairbanks Street, Dartmouth, NS B3A 1C1

Description

Welcome to 34 Fairbanks Street — a truly one-of-a-kind offering in the heart of Downtown Dartmouth. Built in 1867 and standing strong through history — including the Halifax Explosion of 1917 — this remarkable property carries over 150 years of character and resilience. Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street just a short walk to the harbour, Sullivan's Pond, Alderney Landing Ferry Terminal, and the Macdonald Bridge, it delivers the ultimate in urban lifestyle and investment potential. The charming main house offers 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, freshly updated with new flooring, fresh paint throughout, and has 2 heat pumps for efficient year-round comfort. Out back, the carriage house sits on its own separate lot and is nothing short of impressive — featuring a full kitchen, a beautifully tiled shower, a loft bedroom, a heat pump, and a fully fenced private yard. A sub-meter has been installed to keep power usage separate, making it ideal as a mortgage helper, income property, or multi-generational living space. Both structures are topped with durable metal roofs for long-lasting peace of mind. A double driveway, freshly gravelled, provides ample parking. Whether you're looking to live in one and rent the other, house a family member close by, or simply enjoy the incredible walkability this downtown Dartmouth location has to offer — this piece of living history truly has it all. It must be seen to be believed!
