Tucked between established homes on Herring Cove Road, this vacant building lot has been quietly waiting for the right vision. 957 Herring Cove Road presents a rare opportunity to secure a 16,553 sq ft (0.38 acre) parcel in one of the most scenic corners of the Halifax area, where coastal living and city convenience meet. The lot sits on a public road, and municipal water and sewer run along the street in front of it. A mix of mature hardwoods and evergreens covers the property, with an open, grassy stretch near the road and a wooded backdrop toward the rear. The lot also backs onto Crown land, giving you natural privacy and a forested view out back instead of rear neighbours. The property is zoned HCR (Herring Cove Residential), which allows single unit and two unit dwellings as well as home occupations, so you have options, whether you want to build a home of your own or a two-unit with some extra flexibility. Buyers should confirm permitted uses, development requirements and servicing connections with HRM and Halifax Water. The location is hard to beat. William King Elementary and Herring Cove Junior High are both within walking distance, as are Herring Cove Provincial Park, the coastline, and local favourite Pavia Cafe & Gallery. Head the other way and you’ll pass Long Pond, with its lifeguarded beach in the summer, on your route toward Spryfield and downtown Halifax. Vacant land in an established community like Herring Cove doesn’t come along often. With immediate possession available, explore the possibilities and imagine what comes next!
