🏡 1981 Bel-Air Dr, Ottawa, ON

Set on Bel-Air Drive, one of Braemar Park's most desirable streets, this thoughtfully expanded bungalow has been lovingly maintained by the family who first called it home. Its brick and stone facade makes a welcoming first impression, while hardwood floors, warm woodwork and built in cabinetry preserve its authentic 1960s character. The generous living room is centred on a wood burning fireplace and opens to the dining room, creating an inviting setting for quiet evenings, family meals and larger gatherings. The eat in kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, space for casual meals and the opportunity to introduce your own style. Just off the kitchen, the bright family room addition overlooks the backyard and opens directly outside, giving everyday life room to spread out. Three generously sized bedrooms, a full bathroom and a powder room complete the main level. Downstairs, the newly renovated recreation room offers a comfortable retreat for movie nights, games or hobbies. A versatile bonus room currently used as a bedroom and a second powder room add flexibility, while separate laundry, utility, workshop and storage areas serve the practical side of the home. The approximately 80 by 100 foot lot includes a fully fenced backyard with room for children and pets to play, gardens to grow, summer gatherings and perhaps even a future pool. The oversized attached double garage extends approximately 28 feet deep, providing space for two vehicles plus substantial storage or workspace at the rear. Charlotte Lemieux and Agincourt Road Public School are nearby, along with numerous parks and recreation facilities. Shopping, dining and everyday services along Merivale and Baseline Roads are close at hand, while Highway 417 provides easy access to central Ottawa and Kanata. With its original character intact, 1981 Bel-Air Drive gives its next owner the freedom to preserve the details they value, update what they choose and make a much loved home unmistakably their own.
