Located on a quiet cul-de-sac in the heart of one of Ottawa’s most iconic and walkable neighbourhoods, 229 St. Andrew Street offers the perfect blend of historic charm and modern updates—all without the condo fees. This freehold semi-detached home is ideal for anyone looking for more space, privacy, and character in a prime downtown location.
Step inside the main level and feel immediately at home in the warm, light-filled living space featuring original hardwood floors. Off the kitchen, a renovated mudroom (2022) provides the perfect landing zone with room for storage and coats, making everyday living more organized and efficient. The kitchen itself was updated in 2023, with plenty of counter space, cabinetry, and the added bonus of main-floor laundry—a rare convenience in this type of home.
Upstairs, you’ll find two comfortable bedrooms with easy-maintenance laminate flooring, ideal for sleeping, working, or creating a flexible guest space. The full unfinished basement offers valuable additional storage or potential future use. The home includes one parking spot, accessed via a shared laneway.
Outside, your private fenced backyard patio is perfect for entertaining, gardening, or simply enjoying a quiet morning coffee—an urban oasis that's truly your own. The yard was fully refreshed in 2021, with additional regrading and interlock completed in 2024, along with a brand-new front porch. A big shed and small shed are included with the sale, along with washer, dryer, dishwasher, fridge, stove, microwave, wooden shelving units in the basement, light fixtures, blinds, and a patio table.
