5-Fairmount, Clayton Park, Rockingham Fairmount B3N 2Z1

Yes, many listings claim to be in a "sought-after neighbourhood," but Fairmount truly earns that title. Located on the same street as Springvale Elementary and Halifax Christian Academy, fields and playgrounds just a two-minute walk away! Set on a generous 8,195 sq ft lot, the property offers rare privacy, no direct views into neighbouring homes. This 6-bedroom, 2 full bath and 2 half bath home has been extensively renovated over the past nine years, making it completely move-in ready. Upstairs features five bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a standout primary suite with an oversized window that offers serene views of the city in winter and a treehouse-like feel in the summer. The main floor layout has been thoughtfully redesigned to create a balance between open flow and intimate spaces. A custom wall of millwork frames the marble-faced fireplace in the cozy living area, while the kitchen (fully renovated in 2016) boasts wood shaker cabinetry, a Kohler cast iron sink, and premium granite countertops. The powder room was expanded and redesigned in 2024 with timeless English charm, and the dining room provides ample space along with built-in storage. Step outside to a show-stopping outdoor living area: a partially covered deck extended in 2022, complete with cedar shakes, space for both dining and lounge seating, and ambient mood lighting. On the lower level, the sixth bedroom (currently a home gym) sits across from a spacious, updated rec room—ideal for movie nights or a kids’ playroom. Additional upgrades include roof shingles (2016), conversion from electric to propane hot water baseboard heating, a new concrete walkway, exterior painting (2024/2025), new backyard stairs (2025), and updated appliances including fridge, washer, and dryer (2025), hot tub disconnect (2025). With Ashburn Golf Club, Rails to Trails, and top schools just outside your door, this home offers not only comfort and style, but an unbeatable lifestyle.
