Property Description
Most homes this age show their years. This one spent them wisely. Owned by the same family for nearly 30 years, 68 Ottaway has been systematically upgraded over time; not for resale, but for life. The sellers kept a detailed record of every improvement since the day they moved in, available at every showing. In a market full of cosmetic flips and deferred maintenance, that transparency is rare. The main floor was transformed in 2024 with a fully renovated open-concept kitchen featuring custom cabinetry, pot lights, island lighting, and all-new appliances, including a fridge with built-in reverse osmosis water. The space flows into a bright living and dining area that opens directly to the deck. Three hardwood-floored bedrooms and an updated 3-piece bath complete the main level. Solid plaster walls keep the home remarkably quiet. The finished lower level adds a large rec room (rebuilt 2023), fourth bedroom, updated 3-piece bath, flex room, storage, and laundry. Then there is the backyard. The 2022 deck, pergola, gazebo, and lower patio create a layered outdoor living setup that most buyers never find. A hot tub, gas BBQ hookup, and mature gardens back onto green space with no rear neighbours. In summer, this yard is the reason people stay. Key updates: steel roof (2021), AC (2022), carport (2021), basement windows (2023), attic insulation (2021), windows (2014-15), furnace serviced annually. Water softener and central vac included. Walk to multiple schools. Hwy 400 in under three minutes. Waterfront, mall, groceries, and restaurants within five. Lived in well. Maintained even better. The record speaks for itself.
