About this home

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. The existing home provides options for those looking to renovate or expand, while the property also presents an exceptional opportunity for new construction. Current ER-2 zoning permits single family or two unit development as of right. 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. Buyers are encouraged to verify zoning and permitted uses. Located just minutes from downtown Dartmouth, you'll enjoy easy access to Alderney Landing, the ferry, the Dartmouth Sportsplex, waterfront parks, cafés, restaurants and the vibrant downtown core. Whether your vision is a custom waterfront residence or renovation of the existing home, this property combines an exceptional location, spectacular views and outstanding long term appeal.
