Rare Half-Acre Retreat in Rothwell Heights! Tucked away on one of Ottawa's most coveted lanes, this wooded .48-acre lot offers a rare chance to build your forever home in a neighbourhood that feels like the country yet is just 8 km from the city's core. Mature trees envelop the property, creating a natural sanctuary with exceptional privacy. With over 130 feet of frontage and 260+ feet of depth, there's room to design generously while preserving the landscape that makes this setting so special. The lot sits on a newly paved road, adding a polished finish to an already exceptional setting. This is a true blank canvas with no compromises. Bring your own architect, design to your own standard, and build without limitation. Whether your vision is a grand estate or a thoughtfully scaled retreat, this lot can accommodate it. You are steps from Ottawa River trails and boat access, minutes to Blair LRT Station for a car-free commute downtown, walking distance to Colonel By Secondary (International Baccalaureate program) & close to Montfort Hospital, shopping, and major employment hubs. Rothwell Heights is one of the capital's best-kept secrets: an established enclave of estate properties where winding roads, generous setbacks, and towering canopy deliver genuine tranquility without sacrificing urban convenience. Bring your vision and your architect.
