Overview

2785 Joseph Howe Drive, Halifax, NS (MLS® 202528571): Prime Development Opportunity on the Halifax Peninsula. Welcome to an exceptionally rare offering: a vacant ER-3 zoned lot on the Halifax Peninsula — the only one currently for sale. With 4997 sq ft of land and as-of-right ability to build a 6-unit building, this is a dream opportunity for builders, investors, or visionaries looking to capitalize on Halifax’s growing rental demand. This property already features a driveway and has municipal water and sewer services available at the street (Buyer’s responsibility to connect). With a Walk Score in the 90s, this central location offers unbeatable walkability to downtown Halifax, universities, hospitals, public transit, grocery stores, cafés, and restaurants. Build it — and tenants will come. Properties in this area are consistently in high demand, making this a stable and smart investment. Even more exciting? The adjacent property is also for sale, and it is zoned for 8 units as-of-right. Amalgamate the two for over 12,000 sq ft of prime land and explore options for a larger multi-unit building or mixed-use development in one of Halifax’s most desirable and walkable neighbourhoods. Opportunities like this are vanishingly rare — act quickly to secure a foothold in Halifax’s red-hot core.
