769 Lakeview Avenue

A Custom-Built Retreat in Middle Sackville
— Steps from Springfield Lake

There are homes that are assembled, and homes that are built with intention. 769 Lakeview Avenue in Middle Sackville, Nova Scotia is the latter. Custom-crafted over a decade of careful ownership, this 3,069 sq. ft. bungalow in Halifax Regional Municipality delivers the kind of quality that registers immediately — in the weight of the finishes, the logic of the layout, and the way the natural setting wraps around every window.

The main floor opens to high ceilings, hardwood floors, and oversized windows framing a south-facing lot overlooking a gentle creek, mature gardens, and established trees. A propane fireplace anchors the living room, while the open dining area flows naturally to the 20×16 rear deck with propane BBQ hookup — purpose-built for Halifax summers.

The kitchen was designed by someone who cooks: quartz countertops, Italian tile backsplash, ceiling-height cabinetry with press-to-open upper storage, a walk-in pantry with automatic lighting, an ice-maker fridge, and an island with built-in storage. This is not a feature kitchen added for resale — it is a kitchen built for daily use.

The primary suite occupies its own wing of the main floor: tray ceiling, custom walk-in closet with built-in shelving, and an ensuite with in-floor heating, double vanity, and a walk-in shower with bench seating.

The fully developed walkout basement adds genuine flexibility — a large family room, secondary dining or games area, a fourth bedroom, full bath, laundry, flex room, and plumbing roughed-in for a future wet bar. The heated double attached garage and workshop, accessible from both inside and outside, is one of the property's most distinctive features.

Outside, the 22,099 sq. ft. south-facing lot borders a gentle creek with paths through the natural surroundings. Space for a future hot tub or pool. This property was not slapped together — it was built by someone who cared about getting it right.

Why Middle Sackville Is One of HRM's Most Sought-After Communities

Middle Sackville occupies a genuinely compelling position in Halifax Regional Municipality. It delivers the lot sizes, natural surroundings, and community character that HRM proper rarely offers at this price point — without sacrificing the infrastructure, school access, and commute viability that matter to families and professionals.

For buyers relocating to Halifax from Toronto, Calgary, Vancouver, or internationally, the Sackville corridor consistently ranks as a top target: reliable high-speed internet, strong school feeders with French immersion, municipal sewer, and larger lots unavailable in the Halifax peninsula at comparable price points.
