2709 Connolly Street, Halifax, NS (MLS® 202622432): Whether enjoying the friendly neighbourhood from your front veranda, BBQing on the deck or gardening in the backyard, the outside is the beginning of the lifestyle that 2709 Connolly Street offers. Inside, the home blends the traditional 1¾-storey design with a well-planned addition, giving us considerably more space and flexibility than you would expect in a West End home. The classic front living room feels exactly where it should be, connecting naturally with the spacious kitchen, bedrooms and upper level. The kitchen sits at the centre of it all. With ample cabinetry and a casual eat-in spot, it feels like a natural place to connect with one another. From here we move into the addition and the spacious main-floor family room, giving us something many homes in the neighbourhood simply don't have, two separate living areas. It also connects directly to the deck, backyard and driveway, making day to day living really easy. We also have two bedrooms on the main floor, giving you plenty of choices. Bedrooms if you need them, home offices, a den, guest space or some combination of these. A spacious half bath and main-floor laundry add even more practicality. No trips to the basement to do laundry here. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms. The primary is particularly surprising, with considerably more space than we typically see in West End homes and two double closets, another rarity on the peninsula. The full bathroom completes the upper level. Even the basement is better than expected. It is high, has additional spray foam insulation and provides excellent utility and storage space. A ducted heat pump gives us efficient heating and cooling throughout the home. Then there is the location. With a Walk Score of 89, parks, playgrounds, schools and everyday amenities are all close by. Combine that with a traditional West End neighbourhood and this much flexibility, and we have a home that can work really well through many different stages of life.
