1-Halifax Central Halifax B3K 5T6

History and charm meet a vibrant urban lifestyle. This large, bright three-bedroom end-unit townhouse is a rare find in the heart of Halifax with two underground parking stalls. Spanning three levels, the layout offers the kind of space and separation that’s hard to come by, paired with natural light on multiple sides thanks to its end-unit positioning. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully updated with new flooring, fresh paint, and updated bathrooms—two full and one half—blending contemporary finishes with the historic character that makes this property truly special. The living spaces feel open and inviting, with a layout that works just as well for everyday living as it does for entertaining. What sets this property apart is how it lives. It offers the feel of a freehold home, without the compromises of high-rise living—no elevators, no long hallways—just direct access, privacy, and a strong sense of community. The private courtyard and walk-out patio create an ideal setting to entertain or unwind at the end of the day. Located within the boutique Akins Court community, this is one of just seven unique townhomes surrounding the historic Akin Cottage—one of Halifax’s oldest standing homes. Positioned just steps from St. George’s Round Church, you’re also within a comfortable 10-minute walk to the downtown core, the Halifax Commons, and the energy of Agricola Street. With the ongoing Cogswell District transformation set to further enhance connectivity and walkability in the area, this location is only getting better. Opportunities like this are few and far between. A property that offers this level of space, character, and location—right in the core of the city—is something special. This is downtown living, done properly.
