A bright three-storey home in Ottawa's sought-after Glebe neighbourhood provides comfort and green space in the heart of the city. Nestled between the Rideau Canal and the vibrant shops and restaurants of Bank Street, life couldn't get sweeter living at 61 Second Ave. A near-perfect walk and bike score affords breezy commutes to schools, parks, groceries, and the farmer's market. »cont'd
A towering blue spruce sits atop a wooden deck at the entrance to this classic Glebe home adorned in red brick. A sunny front entrance welcomes guests. Only a home made for entertaining would feature an adjoining living and dining room with matching floral ceiling medallions. High ceilings, hardwood floors, and crown molding elevate the space. A dining room fit for weekday dinners with a pantry easily transforms to an indoor-outdoor fiesta with patio doors that lead directly to the backyard. Such a spacious backyard oasis isn't reserved only for suburban life — all the woodland delights are right here. White teardrop pendants could float over an eat-in kitchen with two windows that generously illuminate a baroque tin ceiling. Cook up a storm with helpful sidekicks: Wooden cabinetry, a chopping block and a Bosch dishwasher.
After a day of walking or cycling along the canal, retreat to the primary bedroom located on the second level. Relax in a spacious bedroom with a window and built-in closet organizers. Nearby, an ideal kids room or office boasts a view of the backyard. Bridging the two is a serene family room that makes for perfect movie nights. Unwind in a four-piece bathroom with a soaker tub.
Follow a sky-lit staircase to the third level where two bedrooms with vaulted ceilings and exposed brick walls make ideal offices or guest bedrooms. An unfinished lower level with laundry provides extra storage. Parking for one.
