Description

Timeless Heritage Brownstone in a Premier Location- Across from the Governor General’s Residence & steps to Beechwood Village, Stanley Park, + the Rideau River, this full-brick 3-storey heritage brownstone blends historic charm with modern comfort in one of Ottawa’s most coveted locations. Offering 4 bedrooms +2 full bathrooms across three levels, the main floor features an elegant, flexible layout. The

focal fireplace can be highlighted in either the living or dining room, with easy conversion to gas if desired. The home also offers exceptional versatility, including the potential for a second-floor family room and a third-floor lounge with rooftop views. A bright white kitchen with a café-style eating area overlooks the private rear deck, creating a welcoming space for everyday living. The second level includes two generous rooms; one often used as a front-facing family room with views toward the Governor General’s Residence. This floor also hosts two full bathrooms-one with a tiled shower, the other with a deep soaker tub-plus convenient second-floor laundry. The third level adds two additional bedrooms and a versatile lounge with a Juliet balcony, ideal for a home office, reading retreat, or relaxed sitting area. A full-height basement provides excellent storage and is notably dry, making it perfect for wine storage. Parking (1 vehicle) is accessed off of Keefer St. via a right of way (under the deck height restricted to standard car size). Thoughtful improvements over the years include a firewall in the attic, blown-in insulation in exterior and common walls and roof, repointed chimneys, updated roofing with snow and ice protection, upgraded electrical panel with copper wiring, new water service with copper plumbing, furnace, air conditioning, and modernized kitchen, bathrooms, and laundry. Timeless architectural details have been carefully preserved throughout, offering warmth, character, and enduring appeal in a truly remarkable heritage home. (id:62650)
