1170 Rockcliffe Street, Halifax, Nova Scotia B3H3Y6

Property Description

Some homes make a statement the moment you arrive. At 1170 Rockcliffe, it begins in the grand foyer and continues throughout a home that is as welcoming as it is extraordinary. Set on the Northwest Arm, this custom-built residence offers a rare pre-Confederation water lot, a private dock for mooring your boat and a boathouse of its own. It's the best of both worlds: the convenience and vibrancy of Halifax city life, with waterfront cottage-style living right at your back door. With five bedrooms, six bathrooms, a study, gym, mudroom and multiple decks, the home is grand in scale yet made for real life. Tucked at the front of the main floor, the home office offers a quiet place to work, away from the main living spaces. Beyond it, natural light and water views draw you into the heart of the home, where a generous marble island, Miele appliances and a Wolf six-burner stove make gathering with family and friends feel effortless. Upstairs, four bedrooms include three with views of the Arm. The primary suite is a peaceful retreat, complete with a spa-like ensuite. The walk-out level adds even more room to enjoy, with in-floor heating, a second fireplace, gym and family space opening to another patio overlooking the water. Outside, manicured gardens give way to a natural, rewilded landscape leading toward the boathouse and waters edge. A stone patio and firepit make it easy to linger outdoors, whether youre winding down after a busy day or spending a full summer evening by the Arm. Ducted heat pump, indoor and outdoor Sonos, ceiling-mounted Wi-Fi, generator hook-up, a two-car garage and low-maintenance landscaping complete this remarkable home. Beautiful, distinctive and thoughtfully designed, 1170 Rockcliffe is a place to make a statement - and, just as importantly, to feel at home and live life to the fullest. (id:5764)
