Property Description
Welcome to 179 Sampson Drive, a quiet corner lot in Lower Sackville, where minimal through traffic creates a peaceful setting while keeping everyday amenities close at hand. The standout feature is the large, level, fully fenced backyard—a private outdoor space with room for gardens, play, or entertainment. A mature tree adds character and has been the backdrop for countless family memories, from backyard games and barbecues to a tire swing and summer afternoons outdoors. Inside, the upper level has been freshly updated in neutral tones, offering a clean, move-in-ready canvas. Recent improvements include a new roof and oil tank, new interior doors, baseboards and trim, cushioned flooring in the kitchen and bathroom, updated tile and light fixtures, and a full interior repaint completed shortly before listing. The lower level offers excellent flexibility with a self-contained suite featuring its own side entrance and a door separating the two levels. The suite has been successfully rented throughout the current owner's tenure, providing a valuable income opportunity. The current tenants have been in place for six years and are described as quiet and easygoing. Located close to schools, walking trails, parks, a nearby lake, shopping and everyday amenities, this home offers convenient access to Sackville Drive and is approximately 20–40 minutes from Bedford, Dartmouth and Halifax, depending on route and traffic. With the major updates already completed, a spacious fenced yard, income potential and a quiet family-friendly location, 179 Sampson Drive is ready for its next chapter.
