Property Description
Welcome to 618 Herring Cove Road, a beautifully updated 1948 two-storey detached home that perfectly blends classic character with a highly accessible city lifestyle. Nestled on a generous 14,900-square-foot lot, this property is enveloped by mature trees, offering an expansive, private backyard oasis complete with a large patio deck and a handy storage shed. It is the perfect retreat with tons of outdoor space for busy families, pets, or gardening enthusiasts. Step inside through the spacious mudroom addition—a perfect drop-zone for shoes and coats—to discover a bright, inviting main level featuring stylish wood-look flooring. The layout flows seamlessly from a welcoming living room into a dedicated, formal dining area that is ideal for family meals and entertaining. Just off the dining room, the bright, modern kitchen boasts crisp white cabinetry, updated countertops, and excellent prep and storage space. Downstairs, the partially developed basement extends your usable square footage, offering a functional laundry area alongside versatile, flexible rooms that can easily adapt into a private home office, personal gym, or children's play space. The location places an endless array of amenities and outdoor adventures right at your doorstep. For your day-to-day needs, you are just minutes from the heart of the Spryfield shopping district, featuring Sobeys, Atlantic Superstore, local cafes, and the Captain William Spry Community Centre with its popular wave pool and library. If you love the outdoors, you are a short drive from the breathtaking trails and kayaking at Long Lake Provincial Park, or you can head down the road to the iconic Herring Cove Lookout for stunning coastal views. Situated directly on a public transit route, this home offers an effortless commute into the Halifax Downtown Core, local universities, and major hospitals, providing the ultimate balance of a spacious, tree-lined retreat and urban convenience.
