218-220 Windmill Road, Dartmouth

Description

Located in the heart of Halifax Centre Plan Area, 218–220 Windmill Road offers an exceptional redevelopment opportunity in one of the city’s fastest-growing corridors. Comprised of three adjoining parcels (PIDs 00067694, 00067827, 00067702), this property is centrally located between the Macdonald and MacKay Bridges, adjacent to public transit stops, and nearby to Halifax ferry and the main Halifax Transit Bridge Terminal which is along the Wyse Road Corridor with access to grocery stores, cafes, restaurants, and services. At 30,000 square feet this development site in a high-demand urban corridor presents a rare opportunity and provides flexibility for a purchaser to bring forward a custom architectural design or utilize the existing architect zoning submission to take advantage of the Halifax Centre Plan COR designation with zoning site development drawings that have been professionally prepared showing an as-of-right 5 storey building plus two level parkade with 54 spaces and 99 units. The site is elevated one storey above Windmill Road and is relatively flat allowing at grade access to the first level of parking with utility access to 3 phase power, water, sewer and natural gas across the street. There has been recent excavation work with a building addition on site and a full height basement was installed under the addition which touched what is thought to be the start of potential bedrock; this is deeper in comparison to most sites in Dartmouth. The Windmill Road corridor is part of Halifax’s broader growth and mobility plan, which envisions a more connected, mixed-use community linking Down- town Dartmouth, Shannon Park, and Burnside. Recent municipal planning initiatives, including rezoning through the Housing Accelerator Fund, positions this area for higher-density residential and commercial development—making it an attractive investment within Dartmouth’s evolving urban core.
