Classic Curb Appeal. Exceptional Family Space.

Located in coveted Whitehaven, this family home combines classic curb appeal, a sprawling 70′ x 100′ lot, and the generous living space families are searching for. Offering a true 4-bedroom layout, large principal rooms, and a thoughtful mix of formal and casual living areas, this spacious home includes a renovated kitchen, main-floor family room, private home office, and a newly finished lower level.

ELEGANT LIVING & ENTERTAINING: A spacious front foyer welcomes guests and sets the tone for the well-planned interior. Hardwood flooring and recessed lighting extend throughout the home. The generous living room features a wood-burning fireplace, crown moulding, and an open connection to the formal dining room, a wonderful setting for family gatherings and holiday celebrations with views of the backyard. A private office or den is located just off the entry.

Renovated Kitchen, Casual Gathering Spaces: Renovated in 2015, the kitchen is the standout feature of the home. Granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, extensive cabinetry, pantry storage, and a large centre island with seating and storage provide both function and style. Two oversized windows fill the space with natural light. The adjoining family room is centred around a gas fireplace and offers patio door access to the rear deck and yard. A mudroom with built-in bench seating, inside access to the double garage, and a powder room complete the main level.

SPACIOUS BEDROOM ACCOMODATION: The second floor features four generously sized bedrooms. The primary suite includes three double closets and a freshly renovated 3-pce ensuite (2024) with a glass shower. A spacious 4-pce bathroom serves the secondary bedrooms and offers excellent potential for future renovation. A convenient laundry room is also located on this level.

EXPANDED BASEMENT LIVING: Renovated in 2026, the bright lower level adds valuable living space with wide plank flooring, recessed lighting, and an electric fireplace. The flexible layout easily accommodates recreation, games, fitness, media, or hobby space. A separate finished room with utility sink, large storage room with built-in shelving, workshop, and utility area complete the level.

PRIVATE OUTDOOR RETREAT: The fully fenced backyard is framed by mature trees and hedges and features a generous deck with privacy panels, landscaped gardens, & custom storage shed.

ESTABLISHED NEIGHBOURHOOD: Located in coveted Whitehaven, residents enjoy convenient access to schools, parks, shopping, groceries, cafés, the Lincoln Fields Transit Station, NCC pathways along the Ottawa River, and Highway 417.
