Scenically Supreme in Rothwell Heights. Surrounded by custom estates valued between $5M-$8M, this stately residence offers a rare opportunity to own in one of Ottawa' s most prestigious enclaves at a fraction of todays replacement cost. Perched on a private hillside with sweeping views of the Gatineau Hills, this exceptionally crafted home offers over 4,500 sq. ft. of living space on a prime lot along exclusive Davidson Drive. Homes of this caliber could not be replicated at current construction costs. A grand, two-storey foyer with an imperial staircase introduces the elegant interior. The expansive living room with fireplace opens to a treetop deck, perfect for entertaining or quiet reflection. A formal dining room sets the tone for memorable gatherings, while the oversized kitchen with abundant cabinetry connects to a bright family room and second deck. A striking 20-ft main-floor study offers versatility for a library, office, or creative retreat. Upstairs, the serene primary suite includes a sitting area, spa-like ensuite, and walk-in closet. A second bedroom enjoys its own ensuite, while two additional bedrooms share a family bath. The walkout lower level is remarkable, featuring a 33' x 30' recreation room with oversized windows and direct access to a stunning 70-ft indoor lap pool with hot tub, change room, and bathroom all framed by floor-to-ceiling windows and opening to the outdoors. With timeless architecture, uncompromising construction, and unlimited potential to renovate or personalize, this is a unique opportunity for discerning buyers or contractors seeking a forever home in an elite neighbourhood.
