229 Saddlesmith Circle, Ottawa

Tucked into one of the quieter pockets of Bridlewood, this end-unit townhome sits on a street that sees nothing but local traffic, the kind of street that stays quiet on a Tuesday night. The south-facing backyard alone is reason to book a showing. Sun from morning through evening, a covered gazebo over a stone patio, mature perennials, riverstone landscaping, gas BBQ hookup, a utility shed, and a fully fenced oversized yard that gives you real outdoor living space without a lot of upkeep headaches. Inside, the main floor is open concept done right. Maple hardwood throughout, a gas fireplace, and natural light that pours in all day thanks to that southern exposure. The kitchen holds its own with granite countertops, maple cabinets, a breakfast bar, stainless steel appliances, an updated backsplash, pantry, and double sink. There's also a powder room on this level, and inside entry from the single-car garage. Upstairs, the layout currently runs two bedrooms plus a large open loft that's bright, airy, and a natural fit for a home office or den. That said, if a third bedroom makes more sense for you, the seller is prepared to have it professionally converted before closing. The primary bedroom is generously sized with a walk-in closet, and the second bedroom is a solid size as well. The main bath features granite counters, a stand-up shower, and a soaker tub. The basement surprises. Two oversized windows bring in enough light that the space opens up rather than closes in. Rough in for future bathroom. New furnace installed 2026. This one works whether you're starting out, scaling back, or somewhere in between.
