About This Property

Situated in the heart of the ByWard Market, this character-filled semi-detached home has private outdoor spaces and parking within steps of the many amenities downtown has to offer. Hardwood flooring, crown moulding, decorative ceiling medallions, and classic trim details throughout showcase the home's historic charm. The front living room is filled with natural light and features high ceilings and elegant proportions, and is connected to a flexible den or office area. Toward the rear, the kitchen is efficiently designed with ample cabinetry, generous counter space, and a double-basin sink positioned beneath a window for added light. A discreetly positioned main-level laundry alcove with upper cabinetry and open shelving adds convenience, while a stylish powder room with an undermount sink, modern black fixtures, and a large window completes this level. The second floor features a spacious primary bedroom with direct access to a covered upper balcony overlooking the street. Additional bedrooms offer generous windows, flexible layouts, and cohesive finishes suitable for family members, guests, or a home office. The full bathroom (renovated in 2023) includes a tiled tub and shower combination, a vanity with integrated storage, and a window for natural light and ventilation. The partially finished lower level provides a spacious recreation area and/or storage with excellent versatility. Outdoors, an elevated rear deck extends the living space, along with a dedicated parking, tucked away from the street. This property places you steps from cafés, restaurants, patios, boutiques, specialty grocers, and the year-round ByWard Market. Parliament Hill, Major's Hill Park, the National Gallery of Canada, and the Rideau Canal are all within walking distance, offering green space, waterfront pathways, and cultural landmarks. The University of Ottawa and LRT access are nearby, making it great for those seeking a highly walkable, connected lifestyle!
