Description

Opportunities like this are exceptionally rare. Set on Dartmouth's sought after waterfront, this approximately 5,344 sq. ft. property offers an exceptional opportunity to create a remarkable home in one of the city's most desirable locations. With frontage on both Fairbanks Street and Shore Road and a natural slope toward the harbour, the site lends itself beautifully to a design that takes full advantage of the panoramic water views. From sunrise to sunset, enjoy an ever changing backdrop overlooking Halifax Harbour, the downtown Halifax skyline, Georges Island, McNabs Island and the constant activity of ships passing through one of Canada's great natural harbours. It is a view that is difficult to duplicate and one that will continue to impress for years to come.

Dual frontage on Shore Road and Fairbanks Street offers excellent flexibility for site design, including the potential for multiple driveways and garage placement, subject to applicable municipal requirements.
