About this home

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.

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.
