444 1st Avenue

Welcome to a rare blend of timeless architecture and modern luxury on Ottawa's coveted south side. This impeccably redesigned 4-bedroom, 3.1-bathroom home marries 1907 character with a full, magazine-worthy renovation-offering the sophistication today's upscale buyers expect, without sacrificing the charm that makes historic homes so special. A gracious covered front porch sets the tone, inviting slow mornings, warm evenings, and that unmistakable sense of "home." Step inside and the foyer immediately impresses with a beautifully restored staircase that anchors the space. A thoughtfully added half bath sits tucked beneath the stairs-a discreet and elegant touch for everyday convenience. The heart of the home is the expansive open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area. Sun-filled, refined, and designed for those who love to entertain, this space features a show-stopping white oak island, custom wall-to-wall cabinetry, and a bespoke bump-out for the refrigerator that elevates the entire room. The kitchen includes new LG appliances. From here, the dining area opens to a rear deck and fenced yard, creating that seamless indoor-outdoor living every luxury homeowner desires. The main-floor suite offers one of two primary bedroom options. This serene retreat features a spacious bedroom, luxurious ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower and separate soaking tub, double vanity, 7x4 walk-in closet, and an optional in-suite laundry closet for effortless functionality. Upstairs, the elevated design continues. A second full primary suite offers another private sanctuary with its own walk-in shower and beautifully curated finishes. A large second-story family room with a lighted tray ceiling provides a sophisticated space for relaxation or play-allowing for everyday living without compromising the elegance of the main floor. A second laundry closet adds convenience, while three additional generously sized bedrooms and a stunning full bathroom complete the upper level. One of the bedrooms even features its own private balcony-a charming and unexpected luxury perfect for morning coffee or a quiet evening. Every inch of this home has been reimagined with exceptional care and top-tier craftsmanship. Highlights include refinished hardwood floors on the main level, new carpeting in the upstairs, custom porcelain tile work in every bathroom, dual-zone HVAC for optimal comfort, all-new electrical and plumbing (including the line to the street), and a full exterior overhaul-new roof, siding, and windows (2025). The basement also includes an option washer and dryer hookup, making optional laundry on all three levels of the home. A 2.5-car detached garage with alley access, loft space, and its own subpanel provides functionality and future flexibility. Additional front parking offers rare convenience for multiple vehicles, guests, or even a boat or RV. Not a single corner was cut -- and it shows. This is a home where historic soul meets modern luxury, and where every upgrade has been intentionally crafted for beauty, comfort, and longevity. This one is truly exceptional.
