Quintessential Detached Family Home for Sale in Old Ottawa South – SOLD

This quintessential detached family home sits on a perfectly located family-friendly street half a block from the canal in Old Ottawa South. Its huge main floor family room, separate formal living and dining rooms, three bedrooms including primary with ensuite, finished basement with fourth bedroom or recreation room and office, and 3 bathrooms offer abundant space for a growing or extended family. Situated on a quiet street just steps to Brewer Park and the canal, you’ll find awesome neighbours, frequent street hockey games and entertainment going on outside your door. Lace up your skates and head to the canal or Brewer Arena, or hop on your bike and onto the pathways along Ottawa’s waterways.

Pride of ownership is on display here from outside, where the pretty brick, front sitting area and landscaping are most welcoming. Inside the entry is a roomy and well organized coat closet, so rare in older homes. A pretty bay window lights up the formal living room, with a cosy gas fireplace for cold winter nights. Through French doors is a spacious dining room with entrance to both kitchen and family room.

A very large family room addition features a wood burning fireplace and sliding doors to the back deck. Lit with a skylight, window and doors, this bright room offers so much versatility - use it as the family room, or combine it with home office or even guest space for visitors with the doors closed. The main floor kitchen offers an efficient layout with plenty of storage and prep space.

The back yard is a maintenance-free, fully fenced multi-level deck, perfect for entertaining that can easily be turned back into a grassy space if preferred. With parks and kids playing on the street, this deck provides great privacy for relaxing with friends and family. Three sheds offer plenty of bike and gardening storage!

The primary bedroom on the second level, alongside the other two good-sized bedrooms and updated four-piece main bath, offers a walk-in closet and a practical four-piece ensuite.

Accessed from inside or via a convenient side door, the finished basement offers abundant and versatile spaces! A separate and private office is ideal for working from home, while two more open areas can be used for exercise equipment, reading nooks or whatever is needed. A full bathroom, separate laundry room and tons of storage plus a large bedroom or recreation room make this space really useable. There is even a separate exterior access door!

Within blocks of 58 Fulton Street are Brewer Park and Arena, Carleton University and the recreational pathways alongside the canal. A few more blocks away are all the amenities of Bank Street and Lansdowne Park, schools and transit. But from here, you’ll be walking or cycling to work!
