Halifax, NS

Provident is so excited to have acquired an amazing piece of land off Herring Cove Road where we’re developing a pocket subdivision of 96 semi detached homes. Not far from Long Pond Beach (a supervised swimming favorite) and the Pavia Gallery and Café by Purcell’s Cove Road, Birchdale is just 15 minutes to Downtown Halifax. This new subdivision is a niche community all our own, and you will see it, with our signature style and complimentary details resulting in truly attractive streetscapes throughout the neighbourhood.

Homes Designed with You in Mind

With over 35 years experience designing and building efficient layouts, you’ll see how creative our layouts are, minimizing wasted space in even our most affordable homes. Regardless of the house plan you choose, we’ve thought of everything from functionality, attention to detail, and storage options inside and out.

Flexibility

Keeping affordability in mind, the homes in Birchdale offer attractive interior and exterior finishes regardless of your budget. Our design team have put together packages of options and extras that each buyer can choose from to suit their needs or their wants without having to pay for expensive features they don’t. No different than buying a car, you can select a base model or add-on to make a luxury model!

Timelessness

Ever drive down a street and scratch your head at opposing styles and designs that stand out like a sore thumb? What we love about Birchdale is the exclusivity of ensuring complimentary designs, colours and styles, with every home. Provident will apply our known ‘Tradition of Excellence’ to the entire neighbourhood. And, we’re confident it will retain a timeless feel that will set it apart for decades to come. That protects property values. That benefits buyers. Every family that moves to Birchdale will be proud to call it home!

Income Opportunity

With the increasing costs associated with housing, Birchdale has a variety of functional layouts including those with legal secondary suites in the basement to provide income to support your mortgage for your upper-level home, or as a full investment opportunity. Thoughtful designs with access to separate rear entries, separate electrical meters and parking for two cars are available. When the House of Commons sits in September 2025, we fully anticipate the 5% GST first-time buyer rebate to take effect. This will nearly cover your downpayment and closing costs! The bonus of added income from the basement suite finally provides first time buyers with the chance to own a brand new, three bedroom home on two levels, making homeownership as affordable (or more) than renting!
