Musician's East Coast Bungalow - 10 mins to Downtown

Welcome to my coastal/farmhouse-inspired East Coast bungalow, in the heart of Dartmouth. My home is newly renovated with many unique touches, including a 100-year-old grand piano, oversized dining table, and a kitchen with a wall-mounted TV. Located in a friendly residential neighbourhood, you are close to all amenities - just a 5-minute walk to transit and supermarkets. By car, you are 10 minutes to city centre Halifax, and just a few minutes from the highway to get you anywhere in the province.
Enjoy the oversized reclaimed-wood dining table, paired with a giant wooden clock. Sit down to play the 100-year-old grand piano, relax on the couch with backs that extend to give you even more room. Enjoy the unique kitchen - customised for gathering - that has a large TV mounted on the wall, viewable from the counter-height stools or the dining table. The house is complete with a back yard including a deck with ample outdoor seating and a BBQ. The front deck is brimming with summer flowers, comfortable seating, and a wooden pergola.
Two bedrooms (king, queen), full bath, kitchen, and main living areas are in the upper level. Third bedroom (queen) with half bath ensuite, and second living area with pull-out sofa are in the basement.
Guests access the entire main upper level of the home, except for the locked office. On the lower level, you can access the laundry room, living area, 3rd bedroom and en suite. This listing is my 70-year-old home where I live 6+ months each year; it is not a hotel.

This was indeed a 5 star experience as advertised. However, the warmth behind every minor detail made us seem more at home than expected so far away, thus lifting the already outstanding settings to the summit heights of any stay...

First time using VRBO but regular user of that “other” service. One of the best experiences we’ve had as a family of 5. We were all comfortable and the location is fantastic. Great communication with the host. Short walk to grocery store. Short Uber to downtown. Honestly cannot fault anything about the property. Would definitely stay again!

In a quiet residential neighborhood with easy access to attractions and stores. A nice home base to navigate areas surrounding Halifax. If you want the convenience of a city but without the noise to rest well after exploring the areas, this is a place highly recommended.
