Neighborhood Info
Fall River & Waverley
One of the “sleepy bedroom”
communities just outside of Halifax is the Fall River / Waverly area,
which is focused around a number of lakes, including Lake Fletcher, Lake
Thomas and Third Lake. The village of Waverley is comprised of a great
deal of older housing, almost all of which takes advantage of stunning
lake views that are quintessentially Canadian.
Fall River has become one
of the most popular and trendy areas for families in all of HRM. The
three main neighbourhoods are all comprised of newer housing than you
will find in Waverley, and they include Schwartzwold - the oldest of the
three, featuring lovely homes, with large lots and mature trees, St.
Andrews Village - which is still seeing a great deal of new construction
and features a very high end housing (ranging up to values of $1.4 million),
and Fall River Village - perhaps the most popular because of the quality
of its housing, and its municipal water source.
Fall River has a small commercial
component, which is limited primarily to the Sobey’s Plaza at the corner
of Hwy 2 and Fall River Rd.
Finally, Fall River is known
for having one of the best school systems in the entire HRM, which is
a testament not only to the teachers in the system, but also the students
who make up the population.
Fast Facts:
Driving Distance: Fall River is located off of Highway 102 at exit 5, although most residents of Fall River village will enter through Lr. Sackville, cutting some time off the drive. It is approximately 20-25 minutes to the west end, and 35 minutes to downtown Halifax. Dartmouth is accessible in under 20 minutes, and Fall River will be very handy to the New Dartmouth Crossing Commercial Park.
