Addendum
| This exceptional waterfront property tells a story as rich as its architecture. Originally consisting of a 1940s home and a detached garage, it was transformed in the 1980s through the vision of architect Douglas Hardie, who designed a remarkable addition that seamlessly connected the two structures while creating additional bedrooms above the garage. To this day, every room reflects his architectural vision, where natural light and breathtaking river views take center stage. In preserving the property's character and history, the original cedar siding from the exterior of the home was carefully reclaimed and incorporated into the interior walls, adding warmth, authenticity, and timeless charm. Designed to showcase its extraordinary setting, the residence was expanded and reimagined by architect and owner Douglas Hardie, achieving a perfect harmony between architecture and landscape. A spectacular cathedral ceiling rising over 20 feet anchors the secondary living room, while panoramic water views grace nearly every room in the home. The property boasts 94 feet of waterfront frontage, ideally positioned to enjoy sunlight throughout the day and unforgettable sunsets in the evening. Recent improvements include a new furnace (2019), a new roof (2021), and a new hot water tank (2023). A spacious double garage with workshop completes this rare and distinguished offering. Outside, the gently sloping shoreline provides safe and easy access to the water, making it ideal for swimming, kayaking, canoeing, and sailing. An exceptional property offering a truly unparalleled waterfront lifestyle. The house has never been flooded and is equipped with sub pump and pit to handle the varying levels of spring thaw and water level variations Features of house: Fireplace and wood stove 20 plus foot cathedral ceiling in second living room Panoramic water views from every room (except one bedroom) Stairs to access beach Swimmable and navigable water Walking distance to Aylmer (town) and Marina Easy access to bike paths 15 minutes from downtown Ottawa by car Unique architectural design permits intergenerational privacy Double garage and workshop or small artist studio Crawl space of three feet height Sump pump and pit Multiple work from home areas |
