About this property

For those who believe a home should inspire, this is where your next masterpiece begins. Built in 1877, this extraordinary century home is a rare sanctuary for artists, dreamers, and lovers of timeless architecture. Set on an oversized lot backing directly onto Forbes Park with no rear neighbours, the enchanting grounds feature white picket fencing, endless perennials and gardens, sprawling lawns, and a European-inspired courtyard. Inside, high ceilings, abundant natural light, and wood casings create a home filled with character. The main floor showcases an expansive living room with custom built-in bookshelves, a dining room built for hosting festive dinners, convenient main-floor laundry, and updated country kitchen. The kitchen boasts butcher block countertops, crisp white cabinetry with gold pull hardware, a farmhouse sink, decorative tile backsplash, and includes the updated appliances. The exceptional 500+ sq. ft. studio-a dream space for painters, sculptors, photographers, makers, musicians, or woodworkers. Featuring its own electrical panel with 240V outlet, heater, generous lighting with large windows, and custom fitted patio doors - it is designed to inspire the creator. Upstairs, original pine floors lead to three spacious bedrooms and an updated 3-piece bathroom. Rich in history, overflowing with character, and impossible to replicate, this is more than a home-it's a place to create, gather, and be inspired. Ideally located just steps from parks, shopping, public transit, and only minutes to downtown and major highways, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own one of Ottawa's most enchanting century homes. 24 hours irrevocable.
