Situated near Point Pleasant Park and historic Young Avenue, 5661 Ogilvie Drive presents an exceptional and rare development opportunity in Halifax's coveted South End. With two lots totalling over 21,000 square feet, the property provides remarkable scale and flexibility for a discerning buyer seeking to create a landmark urban estate or to explore future redevelopment possibilities. Surrounded by established architecture and within easy reach of universities, hospitals, and outstanding public and independent schools, the location combines enduring desirability with long-term investment potential. Opportunities of this size and setting are scarce in the South End. One lot features a classic four-bedroom, 2.5-bath Andrew Cobb home with period details including expansive rooms, rich oak flooring, two fireplaces (not used recently), a traditional back staircase, vintage Tirolia wood-burning cookstove, and drainboard kitchen sink. A double detached garage adds convenience and flexibility. Whether restored, expanded, or reimagined entirely, the existing structure offers adaptability while plans for the site take shape. A truly exceptional offering at a premier Halifax address, where vision, scale, and location converge. Viewings by appointment.
