    A Well-Loved Special Home. After more than five decades this much beloved home is ready for a new chapter. It was a home filled with love, laughter, music and fellowship.The house needs considerable updating, but importantly, time has not erased its character. Beneath finishes and choices from another era are the proportions, craftsmanship and architectural details that give an older home its soul.There is an opportunity not only to renovate, but also to possibly edit thoughtfully - preserving what deserves to remain while introducing function and simplicity of contemporary living. What makes the opportunity so appealing? You get to make it yours.Look Beyond What Is - and Imagine What Could Be.The principal rooms are comfortably proportioned and filled with the warmth of natural wood. Windows bring light deep into the house. Even the smaller details reward attention: substantial panelled doors,old glass knobs and hardware, textured glass, an original light fixture. At the rear of the home, an unexpected addition creates a generous, light-filled sunroom overlooking the garden. It's windows and distinctive terracotta-style flooring offer intriguing possibilities, an art studio, a sunny reading room or perhaps the starting point for an entirely new interpretation.The kitchen is well-proportioned. Upstairs, the primary bedroom spans the width of the home, complemented by two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom. Full high basement with seperate entry. Large South facing yard/garden with planting boxes!Then there is the location, one of those established Ottawa neighbourhoods where so much of daily life can happen on foot.Great schools, amazing community.Bank Street's shops, cafés, Landsdowne are close at hand.Wander through nearby River flanked parklands.Or an evening stroll to say hello to the neighbours.There is always something to do.
