House hunting often focuses on the obvious things; updated kitchens, renovated bathrooms, fresh finishes (as it should!). But often the most valuable upgrades are the ones you can't immediately see. Welcome to Beacon Hill North, one of Ottawa's most established family neighbourhoods known for mature trees, larger lots, excellent schools, and unbeatable convenience. Set on a private fenced lot with added buffer and privacy from rear neighbours, this detached split-level home bordering prestigious Rothwell Heights offers the ideal blend of space, updates, and location. Inside, you'll find a bright and functional layout with 3 bedrooms and 2 fully renovated bathrooms. A spacious entryway with exceptional storage welcomes you into the home, while the updated & thoughtfully designed kitchen highlights the main level. The kitchen offers direct access overlooking the private backyard with deck, mature trees, and plenty of grass and space for kids and the dog to enjoy. The finished lower level feels like a true extension of the main living area with large windows and flexible living space, with the added benefit of a second full bathroom, dedicated laundry room, and expansive crawl space storage. Beyond what you immediately see, this home has benefited from years of responsible ownership including an extensive basement remodel with spray foam insulation, upgraded exterior insulation, siding, soffits, eavestroughs, landscaping, driveway repaving, and more. Located near parks, multiple elementary schools, convenient daily amenities, as well as the future Montreal Road LRT, perfect for commuting back-to-office employees.
