You get the calm of a residential community with the convenience of a small city hub. Whether it’s school drop-off, an evening run on the Bedford waterfront, or a last-minute dinner out, everything you need is comfortably nearby.

Welcome to 70 Southgate!
A Lifestyle Upgrade in the Heart of Bedford! When buyers imagine their dream home, they picture a place that’s as practical as it is beautiful — a property that supports busy modern life without sacrificing warmth and comfort. At 70 Southgate Drive in Bedford, that vision becomes reality.
Work, Relax, and Entertain with Ease
With more people working from home, a dedicated built-in office is no longer a luxury — it’s a necessity. Here, productivity has a place, while the custom bookshelves on the lower level create the perfect space for reading, hobbies, or displaying cherished collections.
The kitchen is equally functional and inviting. A double oven makes meal prep for family dinners or holiday gatherings effortless, while a bar fridge keeps refreshments handy when entertaining. Built-in speakers on the main level and in the primary bedroom add an element of luxury — perfect for setting the tone whether you’re hosting guests or winding down at night.
Everyday Comfort, Thoughtfully Designed
Details like crown moulding, central vacuum, and no carpeting speak to both elegance and ease of maintenance. Safety is top of mind with all-new smoke detectors, while recent servicing of the heat pumps, dryer vents, and air exchange system provides peace of mind.
Energy efficiency is another standout. With ETS heaters and the ability to qualify for time-of-day power savings, this home offers a smart way to lower utility costs — a rare and valuable feature in Nova Scotia’s market.
Outdoor Living in a Prime Location
Step outside and you’ll find your own backyard retreat. Perennial gardens provide colour and charm with little upkeep, while the pergola patio is the perfect spot for a morning coffee or evening glass of wine. The garage’s built-in shelving and an additional parking spot add convenience for busy households.
Beyond the lot, you’re steps away from the Old Coach Road Trail, ideal for walking, running, or biking. The trail connects you to nature while Bedford’s shopping, schools, and recreational amenities are just minutes away. It’s the best of both worlds — quiet surroundings with everything you need nearby.
Why This Home Stands Out
What sets 70 Southgate apart is its balance of practical upgrades and lifestyle perks. For professionals, families, or downsizers, it checks every box: move-in ready, energy-smart, and built to support both everyday life and special moments.
