Property Description
As featured in the Globe and Mail's "Home of the Week" (May 1, 2026). One of the most unique homes in the city, offering spectacular views of Britannia Bay (aka Lac Deschenes) and the Ottawa River, with breathtaking sunsets enjoyed year. The open-concept design is centered around unique architectural elements, including cast iron panels and oak doors, bannisters, and newel posts from St. Andrew's Church. Lovingly maintained by long-term owners, this exceptional home blends modern comfort with timeless character across four spacious levels designed for everyday living and entertaining. The main level features a private primary suite with ensuite and two walk-in closets, an additional bedroom, and a beautifully renovated full bathroom. The showpiece second level offers 9+ ft ceilings, crown mouldings, and stunning hardwood floors. Nearly floor-to-ceiling cedar-framed wraparound windows capture west, north, and east exposures, filling the space with natural light and incredible views. The custom kitchen features quartz countertops, maple cabinetry, a diner-style bar, and stainless steel appliances. A sitting area with cast iron fireplace, versatile den or third bedroom, and powder room complete this level, while original cast iron panels enhance the stairwell. The third-level library with rotunda provides a unique retreat, perfect for a reading room, studio, or workspace. The finished basement includes a recreation room, 3-piece bath, den, and laundry, offering flexible living space. An oversized garage with loft storage completes the home. Step outside to enjoy year-round recreation - run, hike, ski, or kitesurf - and walk to nearby amenities. A rare opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind property in an unbeatable waterfront setting. 12 hours irrevocable.
