329 Wylie Street

Welcome to 165 Ottawa St, a character-filled century home tucked into the heart of Almonte, one of the Ottawa Valley's most beloved small towns. Originally built in the 1880s with a kitchen addition added in the 1940s, this 1 & 3/4 storey home offers four bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, and the kind of timeless charm you can't recreate. The home sits on a solid stone foundation built right on bedrock and has been thoughtfully updated over the years: new windows, exterior doors, insulation, and siding in 2009; a new roof in 2022; an on-demand hot water tank in 2021; and a beautiful covered deck in 2003. Inside, original hardwood floors flow through much of the home, and the large kitchen blends original hardwood cabinets with newer cherrywood cabinetry, with plenty of room to add an island or create the eat-in kitchen you've been dreaming of. Main-floor laundry adds everyday convenience. The updated bathroom is a standout, featuring a Safestep tub with full-body relaxation jets (and a foot-bath option) and a lower space that's perfect for grandkids or little ones to splash and play, and finished off with a beautiful vessel sink atop cherry cabinetry, Step outside to the covered deck, ideal for BBQs and watching the birds and wildlife come and go, then take in the large, open backyard; a blank canvas ready for your garden, play space, or even a future pool. Location doesn't get much better: you're in the heart of Almonte, within easy reach of the hospital, schools, and shopping, and just a block from the Mississippi River, where paddling, fishing, and swimming are practically part of the neighbourhood. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Almonte's history, updated for modern living. Book your private showing today.

This no exit street brings you to a quiet part of town within walking distance to the shops and restaurants of Almonte's heritage downtown core, not to mention steps away from Almonte Fair, the North Lanark Highland Games and other cultural festivities at the Agricultural Grounds. Lots of curb appeal with the newly finished exterior vinyl siding, metal roof, front entry and wood fencing. Step inside where modern style meets vintage character. The primary bedroom is located of the main foyer and comes complete with a walk-in closet and ensuite bath/laundry. This room could also function as a dining room if more family space is required on this level. The walk-in closet could easily function as a butler's pantry or just more storage. Moving on to the the small but efficient kitchen, you will find stainless steel appliances and granite counters as well as a room for a breakfast table. To the rear of the house is the family room accessed from the kitchen as well as a convenient side door through the enclosed porch from outside. The family room also features a patio door leading out to the 12' x 8' deck which in turn overlooks the fully fenced large back yard. Upstairs you will find 3 generous size bedrooms and a 4 pc bath.
