Property Description

Property description for 257 St Andrew Street, Ottawa

Welcome to 257 St Andrew Street a charming, purpose-built duplex perfectly situated on a quiet residential street in the heart of Ottawa's vibrant downtown core. This exceptional property blends classic charm with functionality and is located just a short walk from the Rideau Centre, the University of Ottawa, the historic ByWard Market, and the scenic Ottawa River. Whether you're looking for a smart investment or a home with added income potential, this duplex delivers on every level. This well-maintained property features two spacious and nearly identical 2-bedroom units one on the main floor and one on the second. Both units are thoughtfully laid out with warm, inviting interiors that retain much of their original character. Rich hardwood flooring, solid wood doors, and vintage hardware give a timeless feel throughout. Each unit includes a generous living and dining space, a large kitchen with room for a breakfast table, two comfortable bedrooms, and a full bathroom located privately at the rear of the home. The second-floor unit enjoys both front and back balconies, ideal for morning coffee or fresh air. The main-floor unit offers direct access to the fenced backyard and has exclusive access to the basement, which includes shared laundry and ample storage space for both units. The basement can be accessed from inside the home or via a separate exterior entrance, adding to the property's flexibility. Both units are available fully furnished, making them ready for immediate occupancy or income generation through short-term or long-term rentals. Whether you choose to live in one unit and rent the other or lease both for investment purposes, this duplex offers exceptional potential in one of Ottawa's most sought-after rental markets. This is a rare opportunity to own a solid, income-producing property in a central, walkable, and highly desirable neighborhood.
