Introducing 72 Elmwood Drive in Elmsdale—where space, privacy, and comfort come together on a beautifully treed 1.89-acre lot. Tucked behind neighbouring homes, this property offers a rare sense of seclusion while still being part of a desirable residential community. This charming two-storey family home features three bedrooms and a thoughtfully designed layout suited for both everyday living and entertaining. The main floor welcomes you into a spacious living room with a cozy fireplace and large windows that fill the space with natural light. Rich cherry hardwood flooring adds warmth throughout the main living areas. The open-concept design flows into a warm maple kitchen with ample cabinetry, countertops, a functional island, and a sunny breakfast bar. A formal dining room is perfect for hosting, while the mudroom—with direct access to the garage—connects to a convenient laundry area and powder room. Upstairs, the generous primary suite features double walk-in closets and a spacious ensuite with an air jet tub, separate shower, and double vanity. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the second level. The expansive L-shaped basement offers flexible space for a rec room, home office, or entertaining area, complete with a built-in bar, vanity, walkout access, and abundant storage. A heat pump ensures year-round comfort and energy efficiency. Outside, enjoy the beautifully lush landscaped yard surrounded by mature trees for added privacy. The back deck is perfect for summer barbecues, and a detached shed provides additional storage. Ideally located 5 minutes to walking trails, 10 minutes to amenities, 15 minutes to the airport, and 40 minutes to downtown Halifax, this property offers the perfect blend of privacy and convenience.
