In Halifax, certain areas have proven particularly popular for new constructions:

West Bedford: Known for its larger homes and higher price points, West Bedford remains a sought-after location. Despite its premium costs, the price per square foot is competitively priced, reflecting the area’s desirability. Local amenities like walking trails, parks, and proximity to the airport add to its appeal.
