Welcome to the prestigious Old Ottawa South, a neighborhood renowned for its historic charm and vibrant community. As you stroll through its streets, you'll find a vibrant neighbourhood with its eclectic mix of restaurants, stores, and pubs along Bank Street.

The area boasts access to the Rideau River with its off-leash dog park, Brewer Pool and Arena, Ottawa Tennis and Lawn Bowling Club are all steps away. Various esteemed schools, are walking distance, all contributing to its family-friendly atmosphere. The sense of community here is palpable, with friendly neighbors often seen enjoying their front porches.

At 144 Hopewell, the front porch is indeed a true highlight. Surrounded by a cascade of perennials, this 8-foot-deep covered porch across the front of the house invites you to enjoy the neighborhood's views and engage in friendly chats with neighbors. It's a perfect spot to soak in the charm of the community.

Step into the foyer, where a spacious, welcoming area greets you with an original sit-in bench for putting on boots, a storm door, and a fitted closet for storage. Nearby, a conveniently placed powder room and additional storage with built-in space for recycling add to the home's practicality. The natural oak trim that flows through the main floor and up the stairs beautifully ties the space together.

Beyond the foyer, large windows flood the living room with natural light, highlighting the gas fireplace that serves as the focal point. This space is perfect for reading, entertaining, or simply relaxing by the window. Radiators throughout the home provide warm, radiant heat, ensuring a cozy and allergen-free environment.

The formal dining room beckons you with prestige and grandeur, offering coved ceilings, elegant crown molding, and a chandelier. This room is perfect for hosting dinner parties and creating lasting memories. As you venture deeper into the home, you'll discover the sunny new extension built in 1997, with its own gas fireplace, a spacious and open area with a European-style air conditioner, and direct access to the deck.

Step out onto the gorgeous stone deck, where exquisite landscaping by architect John Szczepaniak sets the scene. The backyard, fully fenced for safety and privacy, is a lush, enchanted space filled with roses, climbing hydrangeas, ferns, hostas, and blooming flowers. This area is ideal for summer soirees, family gatherings, or simply enjoying a quiet evening. The garage, accessible from the back, offers ample storage for your car or adventure equipment.

Back inside, the eat-in portion of the kitchen boasts a lofted ceiling and large windows, providing a romantic sitting point with views of the beautiful Explorer roses – cultivated in Ottawa's very own Experimental Farm. The kitchen itself is a chef's dream, with tall cupboards extending to the high ceilings, a gas range, built-in display shelving, and a pull-out coffee nook. High-end appliances and specially designed pull-out storage for spices and kitchen necessities make this a place to explore your culinary arts. A brand-new extractor fan vents to the outdoors, ensuring a fresh and clean cooking environment.

Ascending the oak stairs, you'll find warm maple floors and three beautiful bedrooms. The primary bedroom offers a new three-piece ensuite, a deep closet, and access to a private upper deck. This serene oasis is perfect for a hot tub, vegetable garden, or lounging furniture, providing endless possibilities for relaxation and enjoyment.

The additional two bedrooms offer views of the cedar and maple trees outside, glimpses of the charming Hopewell Street, and plenty of space to grow. A full bath with a charming basin sink and rich tile work completes this level.

Ascend to another level, and the home continues to surprise with an immense loft room featuring two huge, deep closets. This versatile space can be designed to suit your needs: let your inner designer loose, with ideas for a workout area, office, or additional bedroom(s).

Venture to the lower level for even more amenities: a modern laundry space with a washer and dryer, a newly renovated three-piece bath, and extensive storage space, including built-in shelving. A full, large bedroom on this level can be used as a workout space, den, office, or additional bedroom. With its separate entrance, the lower level offers the potential for a separate suite, adding to the home's utility and appeal.

Outside, convenience continues with a long driveway that can accommodate up to four cars, as well as 200-amp service for an EV charger.
