Picture leaving home on foot in the morning, coffee in hand, and reaching the office in a few minutes. No bridge to cross by car, no parking to pay for, no traffic. That's everyday life at 85 Rue Dollard-des-Ormeaux, right in the heart of Île de Hull.
Here, everything is within walking distance. The federal buildings at Place du Portage and Terrasses de la Chaudière are steps away, as are downtown's restaurants and cafés. The Portage Bridge leads straight into downtown Ottawa, and the Canadian Museum of History and the Ottawa River shoreline are close by for weekend strolls. Parc Fontaine, right behind the house, offers tall mature trees and... walking paths. For families, École Saint-Rédempteur (elementary) and École secondaire de l'Île are both in the neighbourhood, within walking distance. Location, location, location: that's truly what sets this property apart.
Built in 1907, the house keeps the character of homes from that era. It offers about 1,399 sq ft of living space, with three bedrooms upstairs, a full bathroom and a powder room. The big items are already done: windows replaced around 2018, roof redone around 2010, and a central heat pump for comfort in winter and summer.
A rare asset downtown: parking. The large garage fits two vehicles side by side, and three more spaces outside bring the total to five. The lot is just over 3,000 sq ft, with a yard.
As for the look, the house is ready for a refresh, and that's exactly where the opportunity lies. For an investor, optimizer or builder, it's a chance to secure a prime location and create value your way. For a buyer who wants to live downtown, it's a home you can make your own, in an area where opportunities like this are rare.
If location is your top priority, 85 Rue Dollard-des-Ormeaux deserves a visit.
