Cross Streets: Union Street. ** Directions: Crichton St or Mackay St, to Queen Victoria St, to Avon Lane. A century home on a quiet lane, blocks from the Ottawa River and Rideau Hall. 4 Avon Lane has an energy you notice on arrival from the classic front porch, English garden, to the canopy of mature trees overhead. The lane is quaint, the neighbours are the kind you actually know, and the location is hard to beat with Beechwood shops and cafés, Stanley Park, NCC river pathways, and top-rated schools, minutes from your door. Inside, the layout is functional without being ordinary. A welcoming foyer with a powder room opens to a spacious kitchen with a central island, overlooking the generous dining area and inviting living room, anchored by a fireplace and custom built-in shelving. You will appreciate the floor to ceiling windows across the back of the home, which provide an abundance of natural light. The main floor also holds a dedicated office, laundry, and the primary bedroom with a modern 3-piece bath and glass shower, a rare configuration in a home of this vintage. A custom-designed modern staircase leads to two additional bedrooms, separated by a full bath upstairs. Outside, the yard is fully fenced and low maintenance, featuring a garden shed and mature trees for privacy. A single parking space if needed in this walkable neighbourhood. Enjoy the beautiful character of this historic home, smart and functional updates, in a location you will love. (id:27476)
