Lower Sackville real estate guide & listings for sale

The best method to get around in Lower Sackville is usually a car. Many real estate listings are a rather short car ride from the closest highway, and finding a parking spot is generally easy. However, commuting by public transit is challenging in this part of Halifax. Thankfully, there are approximately 10 bus lines, and most homes are near a bus stop. Most houses for sale in this part of Halifax are located in places that are not very suitable for walking as most daily needs are difficult to carry out on foot.

A majority of the housing growth in this part of the municipality happened between 1960 and 1980.
