Coastal Oasis: Modern Retreat near Halifax Harbour

Welcome to Coastal Oasis, a bright, newly renovated 3-bedroom home in historic Purcells Cove. Surrounded by ocean, lakes, and scenic trails, the home offers a peaceful retreat with beautiful views while remaining just minutes from downtown Halifax.

The home features 3 bedrooms, 6 beds, and 2.5 bathrooms, with generous open-concept living spaces and flexible sleeping arrangements for families and groups. The primary bedroom has a king-sized bed, while the other bedrooms and living areas offer queen-sized beds and additional pull-out sleeping options.

Large windows fill the home with natural light and showcase the surrounding landscape and water. From the custom windows in the primary bedroom, you can stargaze from bed and enjoy views across the Northwest Arm.

Outside, relax on the large deck overlooking the water or enjoy the landscaped grounds with a grassy lawn, picnic and BBQ area, stone seating, and a fire pit that may be used when local conditions and restrictions allow.

Coastal Oasis sits at the top of the hill in Purcells Cove, between the Atlantic coast and a protected wilderness area filled with forested hiking trails and lakes. It is an excellent base for walking, cycling, swimming, and exploring the natural side of Halifax.

Nearby Dingle Park offers coastal walking trails, a small beach, and the historic Dingle Tower. Several nearby lakes are popular for swimming, while Crystal Crescent Beach and Lawrencetown Beach are approximately a 25-minute drive away.

Public transit is limited to weekday peak hours, so a car is recommended for convenient access to groceries, restaurants, downtown Halifax, and other amenities. There is also plenty to explore directly from the property on foot or by bicycle, and bike rentals may be available with advance notice.

The home is supplied by a private well with excellent drinking water. With larger groups, if several showers, sinks, and appliances are used at the same time, you may notice a temporary reduction in water pressure during periods of peak use.

Guests have private use of the entire 3-bedroom main home, its 2.5 bathrooms, large deck, and outdoor lawn and fire area. The property also includes a separate, independently occupied lower-level residence with its own private living space and entrance. A detached music studio on the property is reserved for the host's use, with studio time potentially available separately by request.
Purcells Cove is a quiet residential neighbourhood, so parties and loud music are not permitted.

We invite you to enjoy the peace, space, and combination of nature and city access that make Coastal Oasis a unique place to stay in Halifax.
