This home has been extensively renovated from top to bottom and offers 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in total: a 3-bedroom main level plus a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom basement apartment, on a quiet, tree-lined street in a sought-after, central Ottawa location.

The renovation covered what matters most: a new roof, furnace, and air conditioning, an updated exterior, new windows, a new entrance door, and a new driveway. It also added a legal secondary dwelling unit in the basement: real, permitted rental income built right in.

Inside, vaulted ceilings and a bay window keep the main floor bright, and the kitchen stands out with quartz countertops and custom cabinetry. Each unit has its own washer and dryer, and a built-in TV unit with a granite countertop rounds out a layout that's as easy to live in as it is to show.

Lower level

The basement apartment

A bright, spray-foam-insulated 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom legal secondary dwelling unit. Every room has its own window, so it lives like a real apartment, not a dark basement. Its own kitchen, living space, and laundry, separate from the main floor above.

Private side entrance

Its own entrance on the side of the house, separate from the main level.

Full kitchen

Fridge, stove, and plenty of cabinet and counter space.

Own laundry

A separate washer and dryer, apart from the set upstairs.

Separate hydro metering

Its own electrical panel and meter, so each unit pays its own electricity bill.

Investment opportunity

Live upstairs. Let the basement help pay the mortgage.

The lower-level unit is a legal secondary dwelling, currently home to a long-term tenant of five years, while the main floor is owner-occupied. Each unit has its own electrical panel and meter, so tenants cover their own hydro, with no shared utility bills to manage. A savvy buyer can move upstairs and keep the rental income flowing, house extended family, or continue the current arrangement from day one: turnkey either way.
