About this property

Charming first floor flat in historic old south district near waterfront

  • This special space is close to everything, making it easy to plan your visit. Part of an Iconic 1860’s Georgian Town House street scape in the historic Old South District. (One of the most photographed historic street scapes in Canada seen in publications featuring Halifax). Steps away from the waterfront board walk, shops, markets and some of the best dinning experiences in the city, the location cant be beat. Large south facing windows give great street views and a bright sunny space. Original wide plank Floors, fireplace and modern touches throughout make this special space the perfect location from which to explore the city.

Location! This apartment is just steps away from some fantastic restaurants and markets. It is perfect as is with beautiful floors, two bathrooms, and a comfortable bed. The only thing I would add is a reading lamp in the sitting room. I would definitely return to this same apartment again.
Our front door. Getting in and out is very easy! Perfect location!

Terrific location. Very pleasant flat. BUT it is not suitable for a longer stay unless you are fine living out of your suitcase. There is no dresser nor shelvers so forget about "unpacking." There IS a very small armoire but it will allow hanging up about 5 shirts and again no drawers in it. Also, oddly not a pleasant place to relax in in the evening because the only illumination in the LR is from the overhead light you see in the photo, and it's not on a dimmer switch so it's too dim to really read comfortably and too bright to watch TV when you want the lights turned down but not off. Shame. Similar situation in the BR, with only 2 small lights on either side of the bed placed on tiny stools about 2 feet high, so need to reach down to use them. Finally, the shower bathroom is very pleasant but unusually tiny and the shower itself is so small that it was not possible for me to bend at the waist to pick up a dropped bar of soap; had to squat. I'm 5'9. Those who can't fit comfortably in a standard airline seat may have trouble even entering the shower. Many of these caveats are easy fixes and were communicated to the host, who seemed extremely receptive, so check back to see if they have been addressed since October 2025.

I had a fantastic stay! The property was a beautiful blend of old vs new; it was also very clean and well appointed. The location can't be beat! The hosts were quick to reply and were flexible with an early checkin request. I will 100% book again

Great location! Comfortable bed. Very quiet. Free parking. Bright spacious living room. Responsive and helpful property managers. Only complaint is that the stove wasn’t working properly. When we let them know, the manager brought over an air fryer/toaster oven and an induction countertop burner. This helped but cooking dinners was still a little tricky. If they fix the oven issue then this place is perfect.

I don’t normally write reviews but was pretty happy with this spot. Stayed here for a few days with my husband and our 2 little kids. Location was excellent especially with kids, easily walkable to the harbour front where we spent all of our time. Very clean so we immediately felt comfortable, and loved the bedroom space as well as living room space to hang out. Also, 5 min walk to the grocery store and a spot to grab wine / beer. Communication with our hosts was also very smooth which we appreciated. Thank you!

The property was close to as pictured. It is nicely furnished and had clean bedsing and towels. The location is perfect for taking a walk along the waterfront. The tv remote batteries gave out an hour into us watching tv at night, so we had to unplug it to turn it off. The bathroom off the kitchen is small and the door can't open all the way, but thats a minor issue. Parking direcrly behi d the house is convenient and easy with access to the back door once you get your keys from the front door foyer. I would stay there again.
