In my last post, I said that I would be focusing in the Hammonds Plains area for the next few days. Today I want give you a high level overview of the beautiful subdivisions and exciting new developments in this area.

The residential  development occurring in the Hammonds Plains area right now is the largest anywhere in Nova Scotia.

Kingswood subdivision is comprised of  hundreds of homes – all different styles. Most of the homes would be categorized on the higher end of the housing prices for Halifax, however, there are still some lots available for development and some of the houses in this subdivision are actually supplied by city water.

Kingswood North is the largest development in the area Hammonds Plains area.  It is an extension of Kingswood subdivision on the other side of the Hammonds Plains Rd. Once complete, there will be over 100 new homes.  This area, similar to Kingswood subdivision, will be on the higher end for housing prices.

Glen Arbor is the premier subdivision in the area. The price of these homes is the most expensive for the area. This subdivision boasts a nationally recognized golf course that hosted the 2005 LPGA Canadian Open. There are building lots available to build your dream house.

Whites Lake is only 6 -7 years old and is approx. 5 minutes up from the Kingswood subdivision. Much of this area has already been developed, but there are areas that are currently being developed.  Prices for homes in this subdivision are in the mid range.

Cox Lake Ridge is closer to the end of the Hammonds Plains Rd. Many of the lots within this subdivision have great views of beautiful Cox Lake. The builder is developing this subdivision to be very high-end. Development was slow to begin, but in the last year and a half has picked up quite a bit. There are about 20 lots available for sale in this subdivision.

Highland Park began in the 1970′s, but the majority of development began in the 1990′s. There is a wide variety of housing types and prices that are mid range. There are still a number lots available for sale.

Haliburton Heights is a beautiful subdivision that is located just off of highway #103 (Exit 5) in Tantallon. There are very few lots available. This subdivision is very close to all amenities. Prices range from mid to to high end. Again, there are a large variety of house styles to choose from.

Westwood Blvd is a newer subdivision currently expanding with many lots available to build your own home. This subdivision is also just off highway #103 (Exit 5) in Tantallon, located in behind the Sobey’s shopping area. There are a wide range of housing styles. Prices range from mid to higher end.

St. Margaret’s Village a beautiful subdivision at the end of the Hammonds Plains Rd (close to St. Margaret’s Bay Rd). The builder for this subdivision owns the 50 or more available lots. Prices are at the higher end for the area. Some of the lots have beautiful ocean views of St. Margaret’s Bay.
