About this home

Some homes simply make life feel easier. At 42 Margaret Road, every update has been made with comfort, style, and practicality in mind, creating a space that feels polished without sacrificing warmth. Mornings begin around the kitchen island with coffee in hand, evenings wind down by the glow of the propane fireplace, and the low-maintenance backyard offers just enough outdoor space to enjoy without spending your weekends on upkeep. The open layout keeps everyone connected, whether you're hosting friends, helping with homework, or simply enjoying a quiet night at home. Upstairs, the private primary retreat offers a peaceful place to recharge, while two additional bedrooms provide flexibility as life changes, space for family, guests, or the home office you've always wanted. An attached double garage, main-floor laundry, and thoughtful updates throughout make everyday routines feel effortless. The location is equally compelling. Just 10 minutes from downtown Halifax, you're close enough to enjoy the city's restaurants, shopping, and nightlife, yet only moments from the trails, swimming, and natural beauty of Long Lake Park. It's the kind of neighbourhood where weekday convenience and weekend adventure exist side by side. Beautifully updated, exceptionally well located, and designed for the way people live today, 42 Margaret Road is ready for its next chapter.
