A spectacular stone manor with views of the Ottawa River and Gatineau Hills has commanded what’s reportedly the second highest price ever paid for an Ottawa home on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS): $7.675 million. It is also reported to be the highest MLS sale in 2014.
Sold by Ottawa-based Marilyn Wilson Dream Properties, an affiliate of Christie’s International Real Estate, the home was listed at $8.25 million and is in Rothwell Heights.
Built in 2007, it was designed by Ottawa’s André Godin. It’s roughly 15,000 square feet, features five bedrooms and eight bathrooms, and sits on two and a half acres of gated land. The motor court-style parking area boasts two garages that house five cars and feature extras like heated floors.
There’s also a heated driveway and pathway to the home so guests arriving in mid-winter needn’t worry about ice or snow.
A spectacular stone manor with views of the Ottawa River and Gatineau Hills has commanded what’s reportedly the second highest price ever paid for an Ottawa home on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS): $7.675 million.
With its monumental stone exterior — the pleasingly asymmetrical elevation and stately chimneys are notable definers — and forests of splendidly moulded dark wood trim inside, the home is “architecturally breathtaking, rich with character,” says Wilson. “It’s rare that you go into a home that’s newly built with a lot of room and feel that sense of warmth. André Godin was given carte blanche with the design.”
Befitting its grand architecture, which Wilson characterizes as a “contribution to the landscape of this area,” the home is loaded with goodies. Inside, for instance, there’s a spacious kitchen with dark and white furniture-style cabinetry and it’s flooded by natural light from the mullioned windows. The walkout lower level offers fitness, billiard and games rooms, a party kitchen, a wine cellar, and acres of storage space.
Outside, there’s an infinity pool and hot tub, putting green, basketball court, loggia (covered sitting area) with one of the home’s six fireplaces, and an outdoor kitchen with a built-in barbecue.
The property is reportedly the third to sell for over $3 million this year. Wilson says the last time an MLS home sold here for more than $3 million was in 2010 when three were snatched up. Since then, she says, top-end sales have struggled, but the latest sale augurs well for Ottawa’s luxury real estate market.
“I’m seeing a trend in people coming back into the luxury market. People are looking for turnkey and beautiful properties.”
She adds that, with good prices and value both present, now is a smart time to buy into the high-end market.
“We have many international buyers,” Wilson adds. “That helps drive the market.”
