Better than new: with luxurious must-have finishes well above builder standards, the value in this home is unparalleled and rises above its peers with ease. It's a five star mix: treasured views over the Rideau River at a central vantage, contemporary conveniences that answer every 21st century need, and a tranquil street where heritage architecture and abundant greenspace converge.
Curbside appeal is unquestionable: transoms above the front and garage doors promise abundant sunlight, linear cedar columns draw the eye up to the rooftop terrace and limestone is a nod to this home's natural surroundings. Such sleek design leaves you feeling celebrity-level special, but the best is yet to come.
Over the threshold, soaring 10 foot ceilings, clerestory windows and white ceramic tile at your feet make a statement: life here is zen, refined and easy. Underscored by above and beyond interiors like solid maple hardwood throughout, slick matte black hardware, contemporary casings and baseboards, and a thoughtful open floor plan; a recipe for chic living materializes. Know that what you can't see is equally as impressive; LED pot lights throughout take over when the sun sets, heating, cooling and windows are high efficiency, programmable environmental controls keep occupants perpetually comfortable, and reinforced foundations and floors ensure a peaceful co-existence with neighbours.
Seasonal paraphernalia and pragmatic needs are handled upon first steps inside - a convenient and secluded powder room and double closet near the entrance are smart. Stunning vistas of the Rideau River are the backdrop to an open living, dining and kitchen area. On your right, the kitchen clearly has impeccable taste and formidable entertaining in mind: gleaming quartz countertops and backsplash yield ample working space, ceiling-reaching cabinets are a combination of lacquered white and warm wood tones, low-profile and soft close. These fundamentals for a social-central kitchen let you prep while staying part of the action.
Nearby, conversations and memorable evenings happen effortlessly - low built-ins along one wall hide wires or tech, while simultaneously offering a casual seat for guests. The Napoleon fireplace and tv niche offer flexible lounging or entertaining options. During summer months, conversation spills onto the cedar terrace - let guests soak up the gorgeous view, cocktail in hand. The result is a cool minimal entertaining zone, complete with Scandi-inspired wall sconces and epic scenery.
Open risers and a glass railing lead the way upstairs - every detail has been thought of to create a volume of space and celebrate natural light. Maximizing privacy and light, clerestory windows show off verdant surroundings and leave you feeling like you're in a sumptuous treehouse. Marvel at the generous footprints in three bedrooms - urban living doesn't mean space is sacrificed. One bedroom features a balcony overlooking the street - guests will never want to leave! Quartz, chrome and glass meet in the main bath - the result is an enviable way to start and finish every day. Second floor laundry featuring additional storage makes sense.
Calming water sounds, tree-lined riverbanks, an airy sense of calm: don't mistake the master suite for a Scandinavian spa. Daily indulgence happens in this adult refuge where a walk-in closet keeps the space zen-like, and the ensuite encourages harmonious mornings. An oversized glass shower, double vanity and matte black fixtures keep it stylistically on point.
The top level confirms this home's status as the city's best. Full utilization of the space means you get your pick: city views including the Peace Tower? Or a serene setting over the river? What a treat to have both.
Reap the dividends of a rarely found walk-out basement in an urban setting. Natural gas barbecue hookup makes alfresco entertaining a beautiful reality. Use this open recreation space with heated engineered hardwood to indulge your passions. Yoga studio? Inspirational home office? Hobby zone? A well turned out powder room completes this uber flexible space.
Nowhere else in the city promises the tranquility of a cottage, the convenience of a central location, and the aesthetic of innovative design like this home. At a close to everything vantage where amenities are minutes away - the Rideau Centre, Byward Market, Parliament, bike paths and Macdonald Gardens Park - find an incomparable place to call home. Don't wait - this one of a kind dwelling won't be available for long. Make an appointment today.
