About This Home
As of August 2025Set in one of Ottawa's great neighborhoods, this 4-bedroom home offers space, shade, and walkability-all within a few blocks of the high school and downtown. The location feels connected to the heart of the city, yet the quiet, tree-lined street feels settled and peaceful. The layout is flexible. A main-level bedroom currently used as an office adds versatility-ideal for remote work, guests, or even a small studio. The family room is oversized, with enough room for movie nights, game days, or just stretching out without stepping on toes. Out back, you'll find one of the home's standout features: a deep, shaded yard with mature trees and a wide concrete patio. It's not flashy, but it feels right-whether you're sipping coffee on a weekend morning or hosting a fall bonfire. This is the kind of house that works well for people who value location, space, and a little bit of breathing room-inside and out.
