Move-in ready. Style-forward. Perfectly placed. Welcome to 1740 Preston Street, where thoughtful design meets effortless living in one of the South End’s most beloved neighbourhoods. Fully renovated under the direction of Nicholas Fudge Architects and featured on the cover of East Coast Living-this four-bedroom home blends everyday comfort with elevated charm: white walls, clean lines, and natural light in all the right places. The main floor offers open-concept ease with 9’+ ceilings and a bright, airy kitchen at its heart: oversized island, sunlit prep space, and seamless flow to a dining area and spacious living room anchored by a propane fireplace. Ideal for family dinners or weekend brunch with friends. Step outside to a fully fenced backyard oasis, complete with a no-maintenance patio, Beachcomber hot tub, and a custom shed for tidy storage. Upstairs, the serene primary suite offers built-in storage, a private ensuite with in-floor heat, and two additional bedrooms just down the hall. The lower level provides flexibility and function-cozy family room, fourth bedroom with egress, full bath, laundry, and a mudroom with walk-out access-ideal for teens, guests, or future in-law suite plans. Extensive system upgrades and thoughtful infrastructure updates are outlined in the accompanying feature sheet. Set within the sought-after LeMarchant–St. Thomas, Central, and Citadel school catchment, and just a short stroll to the Waeg, Saint Mary’s Boat Club, tennis courts, breweries, cafés, and shops. A South End classic—reimagined for modern living.
