A Home to Grow In, A Neighbourhood to Love

Nestled on a quiet residential street in beloved Old Ottawa South, this home offers a rare blend of warmth, character, and modern comfort in one of the city’s most walkable and family-friendly enclaves.

From the moment you arrive, it’s clear this is a home with heart. A gracious front porch invites morning coffees, friendly chats with neighbours, or simply a moment of stillness surrounded by a blooming English style flower  garden. This charming outdoor space sets the tone for what’s to come—thoughtful living both inside and out.

The home’s private laneway leads to the rear garden and a secondary entrance, providing a practical transition into the family room and finished basement—a feature that adds flexibility for modern families, remote workers, or independent teens.

One inside you will be greeted by sunny rooms and hardwood floors that  celebrate the home's original charm. The main floor boasts a flowing layout anchored by a traditional living and dining area. French doors lead gracefully to the expansive rear “great room”.

A bold, oversized barn door offers both function and flair, doubling as a statement wall and privacy divider when needed. It’s a room that effortlessly adapts to any mood—movie nights, quiet enjoyment  or lively gatherings.

The renovated kitchen balances classic appeal of white cabinets with modern efficiency. It offers ample cupboard and counter space, quality appliances, and a layout that invites connection.

Upstairs, the second level continues the home’s theme of generous light and comfort. The principal bedroom stretches across the full width of the house and offers a serene south-facing picture window, a full wall of closet space, and a private ensuite. Two additional bedrooms share a refreshed full bathroom, making this an ideal layout for families or guests.

The finished lower level offers even more versatility—ideal as a media room, home office, gym, or private teen suite. Complete with a full bathroom, it adds real function and flexibility to the home.

And then there's the garden.

A private sanctuary unfolds in the rear yard, anchored by a large dining deck ideal for summer evenings under the stars. Mature plantings create a lush backdrop that evolves with the seasons, while a grapevine-covered arbour ais a peaceful reading nook beside a gentle waterfall—a perfect place to unplug and unwind.

A Neighbourhood That Has It All

Living in Old Ottawa South means enjoying the best of urban village life. Within walking distance are bike paths, public parks, the Rideau River, and the historic Canal. The area is dotted with excellent schools, a beloved local library, and some of the city’s best independent shops and cafés.

Stroll to Cedars Grocery for top-tier produce, flowers, and warm community spirit, or wander over the bridge to Lansdowne for a movie, farmers’ market, or dinner out. With Bank Street shops, Whole Foods, and the Glebe at your doorstep, convenience meets character at every turn.

This home is more than a place to live—it’s a place to thrive. A home that welcomes you, reflects you, and gives you space to grow in one of Ottawa’s most timeless and treasured neighbourhoods.
