Description

Welcome to this spacious and inviting 2-story traditional home located on Ottawa's highly sought-after south side. With 4-5 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, this home offers an ideal blend of classic charm and modern functionality. The welcoming front porch and timeless curb appeal set the tone as you step into the open foyer, highlighted by a beautiful staircase. The main level showcases a bright and inviting living room, while the open-concept kitchen features a central island with seating and flows seamlessly into the dining room, perfect for family dinners or entertaining. A flexible bonus room on the first floor can serve as a cozy family room, home office, or even a fifth, main floor bedroom. A full bathroom completes the main level. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite, as well as a shared full bathroom. The finished basement adds even more living space with a rec room, laundry area, a large storage room, and a third full bathroom. Step outside to enjoy the fenced backyard and a large heated garage with a massive 28x21 second-story loft-ideal for storage, a workshop, or future finishing. Recent updates include roof, gutters, siding, and windows (2017). This home offers plenty of room to grow, both inside and out, in one of Ottawa's most desirable locations.

    "Need a vehicle to access most areas of Ottawa. Walking is an option, due to many sidewalks. Ottawa is limited because of only one bridge crossing the Illinois River. The Northeast side of town (where the High School located) is also limited because of only 2 ways in and out. Currently it has only 1 way due to construction. "

    "There’s a lot of other dogs so if your dog doesn’t like other dogs just be careful. Everyone picks up after there animals pretty well and most of the dogs are nice. A lot of them end up being aggressive with your dog but other than that it’s a lovely place for your dog. "

    "Location cannot be beat. Lovely area filled with unique styles of homes. Not a cookie-cutter development. Quiet, peaceful and friendly. Great mix of people of all ages. Well maintained homes make the North side a sought after location. Believe it or not, there are people who actually did not know this area of Ottawa exists. Close enough to the downtown area if you choose to take a nice walk to the riverfront. Good caring neighbors. Cannot emphasize enough how nice and tranquil it is in this area. Great School District, close to all churches and Ottawa Regional Hospital and Medical Center. Definately a lovely place to live. "
