A refined and quietly impressive home at 969 North River Road, Unit 106, offering comfort, natural light, and an everyday connection to some of Ottawa’s most loved riverside spaces.
This two-bedroom, two-bath ground-floor condo balances simplicity with thoughtful detail. The layout feels open, and the generous windows create a soft, natural glow throughout the day. Mature landscaping just outside the glass gives the unit a sense of privacy that is not easy to find in central Ottawa. It feels calm from the moment you walk in, and there is enough space to arrange living, dining, and working zones without feeling confined.
The kitchen opens comfortably into the main living area. Both bedrooms are properly sized. The second bedroom already has a Murphy bed that allows the room to shift easily between guest space and office. The primary bedroom includes its own access to the updated full bathroom.
The finishes have been kept modern and neutral. Newer appliances, fresh paint, updated glass shower doors, additional storage solutions, and major mechanical upgrades, including a recently replaced furnace and central air.
Private outdoor space that actually gets used
The patio is one of the quiet strengths of this property. It is not a narrow strip or an afterthought, but a usable space where you can sit with a book, enjoy warm evenings, or add planters and greenery without feeling cramped. It extends the living space in a way most condos cannot match.
For moments when you want a shared environment, the building’s inner courtyard at the end of the hall offers another calm outdoor setting cared for by a volunteer gardening group.
A building known for stability and care
Rideau Gate is a well-managed community with a reputation for long-term residents, consistent upkeep, and a neighbourly feel. The building includes underground parking, secure access, an elevator, a personal storage locker, in-suite laundry, and reliable management through Apollo. It is quiet, orderly, and looked after.
One of Ottawa’s most quietly connected locations
969 North River Road sits in a pocket of Overbrook that gives you fast access to the river, miles of pathways, and the Adàwe pedestrian bridge. You can walk to Sandy Hill, the University of Ottawa, the Rideau Centre, and the ByWard Market without ever stepping into a car. The Rideau Sports Centre, only steps away, adds fitness, recreation, classes, and a community patio to your weekly routine.
Transit options are close and frequent. Daily errands are simple. Restaurants and cafes along Montreal Road and the surrounding streets are an easy walk. Tremblay Station provides both VIA Rail and O-Train access for commuters and visitors.
A practical, comfortable home in a location with real lifestyle value
This condo does not rely on flash or exaggerated features. Its strength is in how livable it is. Bright rooms. A smart layout. Solid upgrades. A well-run building. Outdoor space that genuinely adds value. And a location where walking or cycling becomes part of daily life.
Available now for rent on MLS at $2495/month.
