Property Description
Classic lines, mature trees, and no through traffic: 8 Fox Glove Lane delivers timeless Cape Cod curb appeal on a quiet, family-friendly cul-de-sac. Inside, it's a house built to hold a large family with 2700 sq. ft. of finished living space across 3 levels. Step inside to find a proper foyer that handles the boots and backpacks with ease. Warmed by a propane fireplace, the expansive living room stretches the full depth of the house offering room to bring everyone together. The eat-in kitchen makes weekday meals effortless, while the separate formal dining room stands ready for holidays, birthdays, and the nights the good dishes come out. Just outside, a private back deck offers serene treetop views. Upstairs offers the layout large families search for and rarely find: all four bedrooms together on a single level. The primary suite serves as a generous retreat featuring a spacious closet and a 2-piece ensuite. With four bathrooms in total (two full, two half), the morning rush stays completely stress-free. Downstairs, the walkout lower level with an updated bathroom adds a versatile flex space perfect for a home gym, media room, or teen hideout. Beyond its classic character, the home offers a GenerLink meter base connection, a durable metal roof with decades of life ahead and an attached, heated and wired garage. Situated in one of the most family-friendly neighbourhoods, this home is within walking distance to Duc d'Anville Elementary (8 mins) and Clayton Park Junior High (15 mins). You'll also find the Canada Games Centre (with a swimming pool and fitness facilities), a library, as well as tennis and basketball courts, within easy reach. For everyday convenience, you're steps from the amenities on Dunbrack, including grocery stores, banks, a pharmacy, medical and dental clinics, and much more. Plus, downtown Halifax is only a 15-minute drive away. Don't miss your chance to make this charming home your own - schedule a viewing today before it's gone!
