Garden Crest Tower and Villa

With only one unit currently available, and with an asking price for that unit well above $1 million, Garden Crest Tower and Villa would seem to truly live up to its billing as one of Halifax’s premiere addresses for condominium living.

Garden Crest Tower and Villa was designed around an existing rooming house that was preserved according to heritage regulations. The architect and developer successfully met the challenge of preserving the old while blending in the new condominium tower, and built what is considered one of Halifax’s finest condominiums. A condominium that boasts all the amenities and features expected of an upscale modern condominium complex.
