2019 Maynard St

Nestled within Halifax?s vibrant Falkland-Maynard District, this 3 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom home exudes both timeless charm and modern comfort. Simply put, homes with three finished levels, a parking spot and spacious backyards don?t come along often in this coveted neighbourhood. Steeped in history, this property was built in the 1800s and then underwent an extensive modern renovation designed by local architect Niall Savage. Legendary Halifax musician Bucky Adams once called this home and hosted fabled parties with a who's who of the jazz world. The main floor is an open concept kitchen-dining-living room space with high ceilings, a wood burning fireplace and custom cabinetry. Upstairs, original wide plank flooring flows into two good sized bedrooms, each with a dormer. The primary bedroom has a full wall of built-in closets. Up here you?ll also find a European style full bathroom fit for the pages of a design magazine. The lower level, with sizable windows facing the backyard, can act as a large third bedroom or a den/office zone. A storage room and laundry room are on this level as well. The backyard is fully fenced and hosts a variety of raised beds for those with a green thumb. The stone driveway is great for parking one car, or it can serve as a big patio space; your choice! There is also permit parking on the street for residents at the cost of $75/year ($175 for an additional second permit). Most recently, the current owners have put on a new deck, new front portion of roof and painted the street-facing exterior. (id:22211)
