232 Summer Field Way
Executive 1.5-Storey Home in Portland Hills, Dartmouth
Halifax Real Estate · Summer Field Way · Eastern Dartmouth
Presented by Sandra Pike, REALTOR® — The Pike Group, Royal LePage Atlantic
Executive Overview
A generously proportioned 1.5-storey brick home on Summer Field Way in Portland Hills, this residence pairs the rare convenience of a main-floor primary bedroom with additional bedrooms on the upper level and a finished lower level — three levels of living, anchored by a rebuilt outdoor space. Set within one of eastern Dartmouth's most established, association-driven communities — and roughly 20 to 25 minutes from downtown Halifax and the airport — it is a turnkey opportunity for executives and professionals seeking space, hosting capacity, and lifecycle flexibility in the Halifax real estate market. Marketed by Sandra Pike, REALTOR® with The Pike Group, Royal LePage Atlantic.
Property Highlights
The home is built for connected living and entertaining across three finished levels. An open main floor links the kitchen, living, and dining areas, with seating for ten at the kitchen and direct flow to the outdoor spaces — a layout the owner credits for years of large gatherings. The renovated kitchen pairs quartz countertops with professionally refinished charcoal-and-black cabinetry and a new backsplash, while the living room features custom built-ins and a clean shiplap fireplace surround.
Functional generosity carries throughout: an unusually large foyer with two coat closets sets the tone, room sizes comfortably accommodate king beds and substantial furniture, and the finished lower level expands the home's everyday and hosting capacity. The main-floor primary bedroom supports privacy and multi-generational living, while upstairs rooms have served as a quiet, well-connected home office.

Neighbourhood & Halifax Lifestyle
Living in Portland Hills within the Halifax Regional Municipality means joining a genuine community rather than simply a subdivision. Developed through comprehensive planning, the area is defined by wide, calm streets, connecting walking paths, and a deliberate mix of housing. Portland Hills and neighbouring Portland Estates operate as one through the Portland Estates & Hills Residents' Association, which runs newsletters and recurring events — movie nights, spring fairs, and gatherings on the school common — that keep familiar faces and long-term loyalty at the centre of daily life.
Outdoor assets are a defining feature. The Portland Hills Greenway runs a 2.2-kilometre trail through Birches Park, complemented by tennis and pickleball courts, a large playground, and a public boat launch on the lake. Everyday convenience is minutes away: a Sobeys on Baker Drive, coffee at Second Cup and Tim Hortons, and the Portland Hills Terminal for Halifax Transit bus rapid transit. Both downtown Halifax and Halifax Stanfield International Airport sit about 20 to 25 minutes away — a predictable, mid-range commute that has long made this a standout pocket in Nova Scotia real estate.
Is This the Right Home for You?
This residence is best suited to buyers who value space, a flexible layout, and a settled community. With the primary suite on the main level, additional bedrooms on the upper level, and a finished lower level, it is a natural fit for growing families wanting room to host, multi-generational households needing privacy, and buyers who want main-floor convenience without giving up additional space upstairs.
For executives and professionals splitting time between home, downtown, and travel, the home's turnkey condition and the area's predictable commute remove friction — a smart, low-maintenance position in the Halifax real estate market.
