About this home
Welcome to 1849 Florida Avenue, a fully renovated legal duplex on a quiet, tree-lined street in a highly sought-after, central Ottawa location. This home offers 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms across two self-contained units: a bright 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom main level and a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom basement apartment, ideal for a mortgage helper, extended family, or a turnkey investment. The main level features vaulted ceilings, a bay window, and an updated kitchen with quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and an eat-in dining area. The primary bedroom includes a double closet, and a custom built-in TV unit with a granite countertop rounds out the living space. Downstairs, the spray-foam-insulated basement apartment is bright and legal, with a window in every room. It has its own full kitchen, living space, and laundry, plus a private side entrance completely separate from the main level. Each unit has its own electrical panel and meter, so tenants cover their own hydro. The basement unit is currently month to month to a long-term tenants. Recent updates include a new roof, furnace, A/C, exterior, windows, entrance door, and driveway. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced, beautifully landscaped, tree-shaded yard with a rear deck, parking for several vehicles, and two sheds, including one fully finished 10x10. A rare opportunity to property hack, generate rental income, or accommodate multi-generational living. Turnkey and move-in ready.
