The Garden Unit at The Thorndean is a stunning example of 1800s Georgian architecture, beautifully preserved and thoughtfully transformed into five distinctive condominium residences in Halifax’s sought-after South End. This residence strikes the perfect balance between timeless elegance and modern convenience. Step into a bright foyer that flows into a charming dining room, framed by muntin windows overlooking your private patio and the beautifully landscaped grounds — complete with a serene pond and trickling waterfall. It’s a peaceful retreat right outside your door. The living area is a showstopper, featuring original stone walls and a grand decorative fireplace, once used for cooking in the home’s earliest days. The kitchen is a seamless blend of heritage and contemporary style, boasting granite countertops, a stylish backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. The primary bedroom includes a full private ensuite and walk in closet, while the second bedroom features a picturesque bow window — an inviting nook for reading or relaxing. A flexible bonus space with abundant storage, in-suite laundry, and a second full bath complete the layout. An assigned parking space is included, though you might find little need for a car in this prime location. Just steps from Point Pleasant Park with its oceanfront trails, and minutes to downtown shops, restaurants, festivals, and the Halifax Boardwalk — you’ll enjoy the best of both natural beauty and vibrant city living. The Thorndean is more than a home — it’s a piece of Halifax history, rich in tradition and full of character. A place to be proud of. A place to make your own. Condo fees include heat, water, electricity and parking.
