About this house rental

Three bedroom town house in a row house built in 1855, just 15 mins walk to the Halifax Waterfront. Located in a heritage area, one block from Citadel Hill and the Halifax Commons. A diverse, artistic and friendly residential neighbourhood in the center of Halifax.

The house is very warm and bright and features 11 foot ceilings with period trim, moldings and light fixtures on the main level, a well equipped kitchen and three bedroom on the second floor. There is a large desk and office chair on the second floor as well.

The whole town house is open to our guests and exclusively for your use. Parking is available (for one car only) around the back, on the corner of Bauer and Falkland Street.

This low-rise, heritage-controlled neighbourhood has many fitness resources (Halifax Commons park, outdoor roller/ice skating oval, Olympic size swimming pool, bouldering cafe). There are lots of good cafes and restaurants nearby. There is a craft brewery, community market, artisanal delicatessen and many artist-run galleries and shops nearby. And nothing in downtown Halifax is more than a comfortable walk away so the list of things to do includes deep-sea fishing, whale watching and sailing cruises on the Halifax Waterfront, theatre, live music, pubbing and clubbing in the downtown and lots of shops and restaurants catering to a wide range of interests and tastes. Halifax is home to six universities and so has a large and vibrant student scene (closest is NSCAD our fine arts university - so many artists reside in the area). The house is located in an urban residential neighbourhood, which is diverse, friendly, colourful, generous and accepting of others.

The house is located within a two-minute walk to major bus routes 1,6,7 and 10. The train/bus station is a 25-minute walk away but there are several city bus lines passing on Gottingen Street (a couple of minutes walk away) and the airport bus stops at nearby hotels (~10-minute walk). Taxi and Uber are available and respond quickly as well.

We have very good high-speed WiFi (327 Mbps download/12 Mbps upload) throughout the townhouse. There is a washer and dryer located on the main level under the stairs. We don't have cable TV but we provide access to Netflix. We provide towels, bedsheets and blankets, kitchen towels, toilet paper, soap, shampoo and all cleaning supplies.

We enjoyed a week-long stay at this property in the fun neighborhood of the North End. Close to terrific restaurants, cafes, and bars, an easy walk to the Gardens, the Citadel, and the Waterfront, we found the location quite convenient. Off-street parking was a BIG bonus, as street parking is quite rare in this part of town. Also convenient: laundry machines in the unit, allowing light packing. The property is a row house, very "Haligonian" in style, charming in its older touches, comfy for its lived-in history. We would absolutely stay here again!

House as per the listing, clean and comfortable, easy walking to Halifax Downtown, (18min). Quiet location and a good local just around the corner (Good Robot). Parking available around the back. Good communication with the owner and very supportive.

This property is fine for a home base if you'll be spending most of your time exploring the Halifax area (we were in town for a wedding). Location is a 10 minutes walk to shopping and dining: another 10 minutes gets you to the waterfront. The property has parking, good climate control, strong wifi, a big fridge and hob and plenty of hot water. The hosts were very good communicators. That said, the place is haphazardly furnished, decorated and equipped. Could use an updating or restoration and a serious deep clean. If you have mobility issues, be wary: the bathroom is on the first floor, while the bedrooms are on the second. The steps on the staircase leading upstairs are warped and worn, challenging balance and bad knees (although the carpeting helps with traction and the banister is very sturdy). All in all not a bad place to lay your head, but short on the details that make a great rental.
