This South End beauty is full of charm and character--think high ceilings, cove mouldings, leaded glass, and original oak floor--but with all the right updates in all the right places. The main floor is open, bright, and perfect for entertaining, with a high-end kitchen that's as cheerful as it is functional. Just off the living room, you'll find a beautiful flex space--ideal for a sunny home office, cozy den, or studio setup that actually sparks joy. Upstairs, five spacious bedrooms are spread across two floors, including a dreamy primary suite, plenty of room for kids or guests, and a bright arts & crafts room that's just waiting for your next creative project (or epic Lego build). And here's a little history with your house tour: this grand home once served as the French Consulate in Halifax. With its elegant details and dignified presence, it's easy to see why. The basement adds even more versatility, with two beautifully finished unit--a legal secondary suite and a separate in-law suite. Whether you're after rental income, multigenerational living, or just a little extra flexibility, this setup is gold. Toss in a detached double garage, landscaped yard, and an unbeatable location steps from Quinpool, the Waeg, Conrose Park, top-notch schools, and downtown--and you've got a turnkey dream that's big on charm, smart on function, and rich in history.
