About this home
A large, private backyard is a rare find in this peaceful neighbourhood and one of the many features that make this charming century home truly stand out. Nicely landscaped with an expansive deck and generous green space, it's the perfect setting for entertaining, gardening, or simply relaxing outdoors. The property also includes the legal right to covered carport parking, a valuable convenience that's uncommon in the area. Inside, the home features hardwood or tile throughout. The bright galley kitchen offers an abundance of cabinetry, a gas stove, and an adjoining eating area. The inviting living room is perfect for everyday living, while the rear addition includes a main floor laundry room, powder room, and direct access to the backyard. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom can accommodate a king sized bed. The second bedroom provides access to a versatile loft, ideal as a home office, reading nook, creative studio, or guest space. The basement offers excellent storage. Located on a quiet, tree lined street in one of Ottawa's most established neighbourhoods, you'll enjoy an exceptional lifestyle. Bingham Park, Cathcart Park, and Cumberland Park are all just a block away, while the Ottawa River and the NCC pathway at Bordeleau Park are only a 10 min walk from home. Enjoy the cafés, restaurants, shops, and energy of the ByWard Market, then return home to the peace and quiet of this mature residential street.
