51 Ossington Avenue Old Ottawa South
Please note that this property is sold.
If you are looking for a family friendly neighbourhood and a home with heart and soul then 51 Ossington should be your first and only stop. Located in the active “hood” of Old Ottawa South, this neighbourhood is noted as a well-connected community and ideal for children and adults who want to be part of a community with a strong sense neighbourhood. 51 Ossington is in the heart of this neighbourhood and steps to the tranquility of Brewer Park and the restaurants and shops of Bank Street.
The front verandah is a window onto the neighbourhood and is available for those who wish to be social or just wish to relax and watch the world go by.
This home has all of the modern updates and amenities while keeping in harmony with its past. Once across the threshold of this home, you will note that the entry way is generously proportioned and well planned for all seasons with a closet for winter wear and hooks for casual outerwear. It has been thoughtfully separated from the open concept, principal family space which is flooded with light through large west facing side lights and front and rear windows. Immediately, there is a feeling of bright airiness that is highlighted with blonde, wide planked hardwood floors throughout the first level. The main space reflects a strong sense of style with a bistro style kitchen with island and breakfast bar as the focal point. Finished with features such as honed granite counter surfaces, upscale custom cabinetry, and a large stainless farm sink surrounded by white subway tile backsplash, this kitchen has a contemporary aesthetic with stainless appliances including a gas range. The open concept space offers natural flow with a family room and formal dining area. The dining area is anchored by a period fireplace and mantle that creates ambience for formal dining. The convenient addition of a main floor powder room, rare in many older homes, is both stylish and maintains the upscale quality of the finishes.
A covered deck in the rear looks out into a private and fenced rear garden and is a wonderful spot for a family picnic and summer dining with friends. You may even develop a green thumb!
The second level offers 3 bedrooms, a den and a beautiful main floor bath that has been finished with the same quality and spirit as the other improvements in this home.
This is the perfect Old Ottawa South semi offering a wonderful family lifestyle with proximity to excellent schools, shopping, parks and recreation and the opportunity to become involved in an active community association.
Foundation has been recently waterproofed November 2016.
