About this house rental

Nestled in Dartmouth, this attractive house for $170 per night is a fantastic option for your next break. A three bedroom townhouse that was built in 1855 in a row house named Bauer Terrace. Bauer Terrace is a registered heritage property because of its architectural significance. The townhouse is just 15 mins walk to the Halifax Waterfront. It is located in what is planned to be a heritage-controlled area, one block from Citadel Hill and the Halifax Commons known as Creighton's Fields - a trendy urban residential neighbourhood, which is diverse, friendly, colourful, generous, and accepting of others. The house is very warm and bright and features 11-foot ceilings with period trim, mouldings and light fixtures on the main level, a well-equipped kitchen and three bedrooms on the second floor. There is a small desk and office chair on the second-floor landing as well. The whole house is open to our guests and exclusively for your use. Parking is available (for one car only) around the back, on the corner of Bauer and Falkland Street. We don't typically meet our guests on arrival as access to the townhouse is by a keypad deadbolt but we live close by and we are available to orient or assist you as needed on arrival or during your stay. This surrounding neighbourhood has many fitness resources (Outdoor roller/ice skating oval, Olympic size swimming pool, bouldering cafe). There are lots of good cafes and restaurants nearby. There is a craft brewery, artisanal delicatessen, and many artist-run galleries and shops nearby. And nothing in downtown Halifax is more than a comfortable walk away so the list of things to do includes deep-sea fishing, whale watching and sailing cruises on the Halifax Waterfront, theatre, live music, pubbing and clubbing in the downtown and lots of shops and restaurants catering to a wide range of interests and tastes. Halifax is home to six universities and so has a large and vibrant student scene (closest is NSCAD our fine arts university - so many artists reside in the area). The train/bus station is a 25-minute walk away but there are several city bus lines passing on Gottingen Street (a couple of minutes walk away) and the airport bus stops at nearby hotels (~10-minute walk). Casino Taxi and Yellow Cab are usually very quick to pick you up from the house to get where you need to go. Uber is also available. We have very good high-speed WiFi (327 Mbps download/12 Mbps upload) throughout the townhouse. There is a washer and dryer located on the main level under the stairs. We don't have cable TV but we provide access to Netflix. We provide towels, bedsheets and blankets, kitchen towels, toilet paper, soap, shampoo and all cleaning supplies.

We were amazed by how clean the place was! This place felt very homie in a quiet area of town but very central. The hosts were wonderful and easy to communicate with, they gave good recommendations and checked in on us via messenger during our stay! The rooms were spacious and the beds were comfy. There was more than enough linen provided (beddings, towels, etc..) and the house was filled with everyday items (kitchen supply, bathroom supply, first aid kit, etc..). Would definitely stay here again!

We loved that we could walk to the harbor front and avoid the parking fiasco during a fun weekend of food festival and gorgeous weather (so everyone was out!). We also walked to the local bakery and to grab a quick bite. Loved the parking for our rental car. Beds were comfy and the kitchen well stocked for cooking, coffee etc.

Beautiful historic townhouse in Halifax within walking distance to downtown waterfront, restaurants and several parks. Hosts were available if we needed anything or had any questions. Would stay there again if available on our next trip to Halifax.
