Cute as a button, centrally located, and now offered at a very competitive price, this charming 1.5-storey home is an exciting opportunity to own in a mature, established neighbourhood surrounded by some of Ottawa's most popular family-friendly communities. Ideally positioned close to the amenities of Elmvale and Alta Vista, you'll enjoy easy access to great schools, parks, recreation, the General Hospital, CHEO, transit, shopping, and everyday amenities. Inside, the home is bright, welcoming, and thoughtfully laid out. The upper level offers two bedrooms and a full bathroom, creating a private retreat away from the main living spaces. On the main floor, a welcoming foyer opens to a comfortable living and dining area, while the updated kitchen at the back of the home features stone countertops, contemporary appliances, and plenty of natural light. A versatile third bedroom, currently used as a home office, adds flexibility for guests, family, or working from home. One of the best surprises is waiting out back. Step outside to an expansive, private backyard surrounded by mature trees, with no rear neighbours and plenty of room to garden, entertain, play, or simply relax. Even better, a trail directly from the backyard leads through to a city park with a large playground-an incredible extension of your outdoor living space and a feature families will especially appreciate. A detached garage provides convenient parking and additional storage, while the unfinished basement offers even more practical storage space. With its central location, proximity to established family-oriented neighbourhoods and excellent schools, generous lot, direct park access, functional three-bedroom layout, and newly competitive price, this home offers tremendous value and potential. A sweet home, a fantastic backyard, and a location that puts so much of the city within easy reach. Book your showing today!
