Description

An exceptional opportunity in Halifax's sought-after South End, immediately adjacent to Saint Mary's University. Offering approximately 4,012 sq. ft. of living space, 5791 Harrington Street/817 Tower Road is currently configured as a legal triplex but offers exciting potential for a purchaser seeking to restore and reconfigure this substantial property as an impressive single-family residence. The flexible multi-level layout provides generous room sizes and numerous possibilities for creating expansive living, dining, family and bedroom spaces while retaining income potential during future planning. Significant improvements completed since 2018 include extensive electrical upgrades with new meters and panels, fire separation, plumbing improvements, a newer natural-gas hot-water heating system, three bathrooms, two kitchens, approximately 80% replacement windows, new front concrete steps and rails, and additional upgrades. The 6,142 sq. ft. lot provides four parking spaces with access from Tower Road and a registered Harrington Street right-of-way. Located within walking distance of everyday amenities, universities, hospitals, transit and downtown Halifax, and just minutes from Point Pleasant Park. Property frontage/viewing access is from 817 Tower Road. Any proposed conversion or reconfiguration is subject to purchaser verification and all applicable approvals and requirements.
