The "Country Life" just fifteen minutes from the city centre - that sums up one of the best kept secrets in Halifax. The Purcell's Cove Road winds along the shores of the Northwest Arm, past the Armdale Yacht Club, the famous Fleming Park with its boat launches, beach, historical Dingle Tower and picnic grounds. The Purcell's Cove Road continues past the Frog Pond Boulderwood, William's Lake, the Royal Nova Scotia Yacht Squadron, and the tiny fishing village of Purcell's Cove.

There are no stop signs or traffic lights, instead only towering pines and birch trees are in view during this ten minute drive home from the office.
