Overview

1165 Tower Road, Halifax, NS (MLS® 202605871): 1165 Tower Road | Timeless South End Victorian with Character, Pedigree, and Opportunity Welcome to 1165 Tower Road, a truly remarkable circa 1875 Victorian residence located on one of Halifax’s most storied and sought-after South End streets. Once owned by a sea captain, this home is rich in history, architectural detail, and enduring charm, offering a rare opportunity to own a piece of Halifax’s heritage while enjoying the flexibility of modern living. From the moment you step inside, you are greeted by soaring 10-foot ceilings, intricate crown mouldings, and a stunning blend of hardwood and softwood flooring that speaks to the craftsmanship of a bygone era. Original plaster mouldings, ornate woodwork, and elegant, elongated windows fill the home with natural light, while the traditional staircase and stained glass foyer create a warm and inviting first impression. A large skylight above the landing further enhances the bright, airy feel throughout the upper level. The main floor offers a refined yet comfortable layout, featuring multiple living spaces anchored by five fireplaces, (non functioning) including a decorative fireplace with a striking Labrador slate mantel and brass fender. The country-style kitchen is both functional and full of character, complete with a decorative brick wall, tongue-and-groove ceiling, walk-in pantry, and updated wood flooring. From here, step out onto a generous private sundeck. Upstairs, a sun-filled hallway leads to four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a flexible fourth bedroom or office, along with 3 full bathrooms and a very convenient “sink closet” and a spacious laundry room that was once a servant’s quarters. This level continues the home’s theme of light, space, and timeless detail. Let’s talk renovations 5 Ductless heat pumps in the main house and one in the TBC, Natural gas, hot water-cast iron radiators, and an on-demand domestic hot water system. The full-height basement presents a valuable feature.
