This charming North End home was built to last after the Halifax Explosion. 5388 Roome Street has been thoughtfully renovated over the years. Improvements since 2018 include removal of the oil heating and installation of a ducted electric heat pump, for efficient heating and cooling year-round. A second full bath was installed on the main level, and the kitchen and dining room flooring was replaced with maple hardwood. Front and rear decks were replaced, as were the wood shingles on the back of the home. Increased insulation and a high-efficiency water heater contribute to low energy costs, and the electric panel has been upgraded to 200 amps. The upper level was recently renovated to restore the third bedroom, and a custom-built closet was added to the primary. This quiet neighbourhood is walkable to amenities such as the Hydrostone, parks, shops, restaurants, Stadacona, Naval Dockyard, and NSCC Leeds Street. It is a quick commute by bus to downtown Halifax. Charming inside and out, and nestled into a warm and friendly neighbourhood, this home retains its character while offering the conveniences of modern living. Updated, sun-dappled, and sized "just right," 5388 Roome Street is the perfect place to call Halifax home. Viewings by appointment.
