This updated 2-3 bedroom home is in great condition and has been completely rehabbed in 2020 including new kitchen, new bathroom, new furnace, new central air, new water heater, new electrical wiring, new breaker box, new underground water line from the city, new sump pump, new flooring throughout, new appliances, fresh paint, and more! The vinyl siding and roof are only 5 years old! The finished front porch is perfect for relaxing and is a great place for your plants. The spacious living room provides plenty of room for your furniture and opens to a dining area that accommodates a large hutch, dining room table and desk. The kitchen provides an abundance of cabinets and countertop space, newer stainless steel appliances, and room for a center island. The two bedrooms are good size, and the laundry room/storage room provides pantry space, plenty of storage and could be a 3rd bedroom. The remodeled bathroom features a double sink granite topped vanity, and a tub/shower with tile surround. The clean basement is where the newer furnace, with all new ductwork, and newer water heater are located. It also provides plenty of storage space. The shaded backyard has a concrete patio for relaxing or entertaining. There is also a concrete pad at the end of the driveway that would be a perfect location for a future garage. This home is in excellent condition! It is conveniently located just 1 mile from charming downtown Ottawa with its quaint shops, restaurants, and community events, and is just 6 blocks from a city park/playground. Please do not delay in seeing this home!
