Location, location, location! Welcome to 42 spring avenue, a spacious split-entry home proudly owned by the original owner and ideally situated in the heart of dartmouth. Set on an approximately 7,000 sq. Ft. Lot, this property is surrounded by mature greenery and beautiful flowers, with an expansive rear deck overlooking a wonderfully private backyard—a rare find in the city. The main level features three bedrooms, comfortable living spaces, and an updated kitchen. This well-cared-for home has benefited from numerous significant upgrades over the years, including a durable metal roof, a fantastic long-term feature offering peace of mind for years to come. You'll also appreciate the ducted heat pump system for efficient heating and cooling, newer furnace and oil tank, electrical upgrades, and a third bathroom on the lower level. Another unique feature is the home's water purification system—an uncommon addition for a property serviced by municipal water—providing an enhanced drinking-water experience right at home. The lower level adds even more versatility, offering a potential fourth bedroom and a generously sized recreation room, providing plenty of space for family, guests, a home office, or hobbies. The garage also provides walkout access to the backyard, adding extra convenience and functionality. For added accessibility, the home is currently equipped with a stairlift, which can remain for those who find it beneficial or be removed if not required. With its three main-floor bedrooms, potential fourth bedroom, metal roof, ducted heat pump, water purification system, major upgrades, generous lot, expansive deck, and exceptional backyard privacy, 42 spring avenue offers an impressive combination of comfort, functionality, and long-term value in a convenient dartmouth location. Lovingly cared for by its original owner and ready to welcome its next chapter!
