87 Symonds Street, Dartmouth

Description

From the moment you arrive, 87 Symonds Street feels like home. Set in the heart of Woodland Park, one of Dartmouth’s most cherished and walkable neighbourhoods, this renovated character bungalow is surrounded by tree-lined streets, friendly neighbours, and easy access to parks, trails, swimming, skating, and downtown. Located within the Crichton Park School district, it’s a place where community truly matters. You’re welcomed by lush perennial gardens, a stylish steel roof (2016), and a charming red front door that sets the tone for what’s inside. Step through and feel the warmth and quiet comfort of a home that has been lovingly cared for. The spacious living room is anchored by a sunny bay window and a shiplap mantle and surround (2018) framing a cozy wood fireplace insert (2016). The space flows effortlessly into a bright dining room overlooking the backyard - an invitation to linger a little longer at the table. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated and features vinyl flooring, new stainless steel stove, and a classic subway tile backsplash. Three comfortable bedrooms, a well-appointed bathroom, and ample linen storage complete the main level. Downstairs, the fully renovated basement (2020) offers incredible flexibility with a welcoming rec room, a den or home office (easily converted to a fourth bedroom), and a versatile flex space ideal for play, hobbies, or guests. The newly insulated lower level includes luxury vinyl flooring, pot lights, and walk-out access to the garage. Additional upgrades include two ductless heat pumps, an upgraded electrical panel, updated light fixtures, three new windows, a stone wall, and a widened, re-paved driveway. The backyard is a true highlight, with mature trees, layered gardens, play areas, wood storage, and a beautiful patio - private, peaceful, and full of life. This is more than a beautifully updated character home - it’s a place to put down roots, connect with your community, and find true belonging.
