Welcome to 2556 Gottingen Street, where historic charm meets modern convenience in the heart of Halifax! Offering almost 2,000 sq. ft. of versatile living space, this charming century home is ideal for families or those exploring investment potential. Filled with original character, you'll appreciate the soaring ceilings, beautiful crown mouldings, original trim, classic radiators, stunning staircase, and stained glass window. The main level features a spacious, sun-filled eat-in kitchen with custom shelving and updated flooring (July 2026), a full bathroom, and a fourth bedroom that could easily serve as a formal dining room. Upstairs offers three generously sized bedrooms, a second full bathroom, and a bonus den currently equipped as a kitchenette with cupboards, fridge, sink, and microwave. This flexible space could potentially become a fifth bedroom, home office, or additional living area. Previously used as a clinic, some rooms also feature existing plumbing. Outside, enjoy a surprisingly private, fully fenced backyard with a spacious deck, privacy wall, garden space, and powered storage shed. Additional improvements include a natural gas heating system installed in 2019, metal fencing, and updated front steps. Just steps from the Macdonald Bridge entrance and minutes from downtown Halifax, CFB Halifax, NSCC, restaurants, cafés, and transit routes. A unique property offering character, convenience, and endless possibilities!
