There’s something about buying your first home that stays with you, and 35 Arvida Drive feels like the kind of place where that chapter could begin. A home with a fireplace to gather around, a backyard that’s actually yours, Kidston Lake down the road and the McIntosh Run trails close by, all while still being right here in Halifax. Inside, the main level is warm and full of natural light, with hardwood floors and large bay windows in both the living and dining rooms. The working fireplace brings even more character to the living space, while the kitchen offers plenty of counter and cupboard space, a breakfast bar and direct access to the back deck and fully fenced, landscaped yard. A cozy den and powder room complete the main floor. Upstairs are three comfortable bedrooms, great storage and a full bath, while downstairs adds a spacious rec room, laundry, plenty of storage and a walkout to the backyard. With schools, parks, shopping and transit nearby, 35 Arvida offers something increasingly hard to find: character, outdoor space and room to make your own, all at an approachable price point for someone looking to make their first move into homeownership in Halifax.
