Updated 2-bedroom, 1-bath semi-detached home with private parking, a fully fenced yard, and an exceptional Ottawa East location just steps to the Rideau Canal. Homes like this are hard to replace: classic brick charm, meaningful renovations, outdoor space, and one of the city’s most walkable lifestyles.
Set on a quiet residential street, 46 Havelock Street places you between some of Ottawa’s most loved neighbourhoods. Walk to the Canal for morning runs or evening bike rides, grab coffee or brunch along Main Street, meet friends in the The Glebe, or head downtown in minutes. University of Ottawa, transit routes, parks, and everyday amenities are all nearby. The covered front porch and landscaped backyard give the home a warmth and livability that’s increasingly rare this close to the core.
Inside, the home balances character with carefully chosen upgrades. Large windows, light finishes, and high ceilings help the space feel bright and open throughout the day. The main floor features hardwood flooring, updated lower-level finishes, cork flooring in the kitchen, and tiled front entry updates completed in 2022. The kitchen was redesigned with honed granite countertops, marble backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a premium GE Café gas double oven, creating a space that feels elevated yet practical for daily life.
Upstairs, renovations completed in 2017 added maple hardwood flooring, pot lighting, an updated bathroom, a walk-in closet, a custom Murphy bed/desk unit, and improved stair detailing. Custom storage solutions and built-ins help the home live larger than its footprint while maintaining its original character.
This home has also been extensively improved behind the scenes. The furnace and central air were replaced in 2011. Brick and foundation repointing, attic insulation, and ventilation were completed in 2012. The rear porch was retrofitted in 2014 with insulation, an electric heater, pot lights, a new window, and decking, adding valuable bonus space throughout the year. The roof was replaced in 2016, followed by new windows and custom Hunter Douglas blinds in 2017.
Outside, the landscaped and fully fenced backyard feels like a genuine extension of the living space, offering privacy, mature greenery, and room to entertain, garden, or simply unwind outdoors. Parking is another rare advantage for this location.
For buyers who want more than just square footage, this is an opportunity to own a move-in-ready home in one of Ottawa’s most connected and desirable urban pockets.
