There is something immediately inviting about this charming 1.5 storey home in the heart of Queensway Terrace North. Set on a mature, tree-lined street, beautifully maintained and thoughtfully improved, it offers that hard-to-find combination of character, flexible living space and a fabulous city backyard. Substantial renovations transformed the original home, including a handsome gabled front entrance and covered porch that add wonderful curb appeal. Inside, immaculate hardwood floors flow throughout the main and second levels. Two bedrooms are upstairs, while the main-floor bedroom offers terrific flexibility as a den, office, library or playroom. Thoughtful built-ins and additional closet space provide storage rarely found in homes of this era. The updated maple kitchen features lots of cabinetry and quartz counters. The sunroom may become your favourite room in the house. Wrapped in windows and filled with natural light, it opens directly to a covered back porch and an enormous yard with room for family gatherings, gardens, football games, dogs at full speed and all the general nonsense that makes a backyard memorable. Downstairs, the finished basement adds cosy living space with new carpeting, a 3-piece bath and clever nooks for office or study space, plus cold storage, a generous storage area and a sewing room or storage fully finished with PAX system. Move-in ready and clearly loved by proud owners, this is simply a really good house - warm, immaculate, full of personality and thoughtfully adapted for modern life. Parks, schools, walking trails, transit, hospital, shopping and everyday services are all nearby. A wonderful opportunity for city living in one of Ottawa's established neighbourhoods, Queensway Terrace North. Don't wait, the great ones go fast! (id:2493)
