We are in a quiet residential neighborhood, just on the edge of the Halifax peninsula. We are close to the NW Arm (the body of water that runs along the west side of the Halifax peninsula and into the harbour). There is a shopping center, local bus terminal and a Walmart just a few minutes away, and the exit to the highway is ~ 1 KM (0.6 miles) from our house. Downtown Halifax is a 10 - 15 minute drive. Our driveway is 30' long, concrete slab, and relatively flat. I recently trimmed some of the trees so they should not be an issue. We can park our RV (10' high) there with no problems. We do not notice it anymore, but we are relatively close to a train track. A few trains per day still use that track and occasionally there will be one or two at night. Suggested Local Attractions: Lots to see and do in Halifax, and NS. We can offer lots of suggestions to our guests depending on what types of things they like.
