Rarely a home of this caliber comes available on the most desirable street adjacent to prestigious Rothwell Heights, steps from top ranked Colonel By High School (International Bac) and Le Phare French Immersion. 1950 Ludgate Crescent is a 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom, sun-filled, split-level design, spanning over 3,000 sq ft in one of Ottawa's most established communities. The living and dining room are anchored by big windows, hardwood floors and easy flow into the sunken family room with wood-burning fireplace, hardwood floor, wet bar and large patio door opening to a deck overlooking a thoughtfully landscaped backyard. Mature trees and stunning autumn colors back onto deep Rothwell lots. While the kitchen is compact with fresh painted cabinetry, new fixtures, newer countertops and stainless steel appliances, a large eat-in area has future open-concept potential. The oversized primary bedroom is a private sanctuary on a dedicated top floor with seating area, wood-burning fireplace, huge walk-in closet, renovated ensuite and grand peaceful window views, stepping down to another floor of three large bedrooms. Every bathroom has new vanities and high-efficiency toilets. A large den and huge finished basement, together, offer flexibility for a rec room, games room, home office, whatever you need. Major mechanicals addressed: a new high-efficiency furnace and central air, newer high-quality windows throughout, a new garage door with fresh concrete slab and drainage and a striking new front door that sets the right tone upon entry. The double attached garage plus six-car laneway handle a busy household. Metro, Farm Boy, Loblaws, Costco, St. Laurent Mall, Richcraft Sensplex, gym, pool, Ski Hill Park, Green's Creek trails, Ottawa River pathway, National Research Council (NRC), CSIS and Montfort Hospital: a bike ride away. Parliament bus is steps away, with O-Train Blair Station at Scotia Cineplex dining area. Easy access hwy 417; and downtown Ottawa is just a 12 minute drive! (id:2493)
