About this property

Steps from Preston Street in the heart of Little Italy, this detached two-storey home sits on an approx. 24 x 100 ft lot. Home is nicely maintained - largely original in its finishes presenting an opportunity for a buyer to update and modernize while building on the existing layout & character. Newly zoned as N4B in one of the city's more active urban intensification areas with strong demand for attainable and affordable housing, the lot offers a compelling re-development opportunity with potential to support a multi unit property up to 3-4 stories. Charming exterior features a covered front entry and balcony above that adds character to the façade. Side driveway runs along the home with space for two vehicles. Home carries a sense of history & character, paired with a traditional layout defined by well-proportioned principal rooms. Front dining room connects to a large central living room before continuing to the kitchen, and then into a bright sunroom overlooking the backyard with direct access outside. Three upper bedrooms are laid out in a practical configuration with good natural light. Front bedroom has direct access to the covered balcony. Sun-filled, fenced backyard is a true gem in this urban setting, offering a large stretch of usable green space. Yard provides flexibility for outdoor living, gardening or future expansion. Little Italy is one of Ottawa's most lifestyle-driven neighbourhoods, where grabbing a quick drink after work and settling in for some of the city's best culinary delights just steps from your door. Highly regarded restaurants, cafes, and patios along with plenty of options for a casual night out for local entertainment. Connected to outdoor living, Dows Lake, Rideau Canal pathways, and nearby green spaces offering an easy balance of city energy and time outside. Nearby LRT & HWY 417 access make commuting a breeze. *Some images have been virtually staged. Property is being sold "AS-IS".
