For Sale - Purpose Built Duplex in Beechwood Village

Modern 1-bedroom + den condo apartment with underground parking, oversized balcony, and full-service amenities inPurpose-built duplex in the heart of Beechwood Village featuring two separate units, 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a detached garage, and parking for 3 vehicles on a beautifully maintained lot just minutes from downtown Ottawa. Built by the sellers’ grandparents in 1952 and cared for by the same family for generations, 74 Genest Street offers a rare level of pride of ownership that is difficult to find in multi-unit properties.

This is the kind of duplex that immediately feels different the moment you walk through it. While many income properties have spent decades cycling through tenants, this home has benefited from long-term family ownership, thoughtful upkeep, and periods of owner occupancy that have helped preserve its warmth, character, and overall condition. The result is a property that feels genuinely lived in and cared for rather than simply maintained.

The lower level features a bright and functional 2-bedroom unit with its own kitchen, bathroom, laundry, and living space. Upstairs, the second unit offers an expansive 2-bedroom plus den layout with generous principal rooms, a dedicated office space, separate laundry, and large windows that bring in plenty of natural light. Whether you are looking for a multigenerational setup, a live-in investment opportunity, or a turnkey addition to your portfolio, the flexibility here is exceptional.

Outside, the property includes a detached garage, additional driveway parking, and a backyard space with room to garden, entertain, or simply enjoy a quieter pocket of the city. The solid brick exterior, mature setting, and established streetscape all contribute to the timeless feel of the property.

Located just steps from Beechwood Avenue, this location places you in one of Ottawa’s most connected and community-oriented urban neighbourhoods. Walk to local cafés, restaurants, grocery stores, parks, schools, and everyday amenities, including Metro, Bridgehead, The Royal Oak, and countless small independent businesses that give Beechwood its distinct character. Downtown Ottawa, the Rideau River pathways, Global Affairs Canada, and the ByWard Market are all just minutes away.

Properties like this rarely come to market. 74 Genest Street combines the stability of a purpose-built duplex with the warmth of a family home in one of Ottawa’s most consistently desirable neighbourhoods.
