Imagine coming home to a place that actually feels like home. Not a starter. Not a compromise. The real thing. This 2018-built townhome in Riverside South was built from the start with premium finishes, including quartz countertops, premium fixtures, and hardwood flooring throughout. Since then, the owners have invested over $50,000 in upgrades: a custom fireplace and mantle, professionally installed interlock brick in the front and back yards, a composite deck, spacious gazebo, and more. Tall ceilings on all three floors make every room feel generous, open, and full of light. The kitchen is built for serious home cooking, with a natural gas range, a walk-in pantry that swallows a week of groceries without blinking. Need office space? You have options. Need a bedroom for a growing family? Three of those too, plus 2.5 bathrooms. The lower level even has a rough-in for a future bath, perfect for converting that level into a bedroom suite for a parent or child who needs their own space. Upstairs, the primary suite is something else entirely. A full wall of windows. A soaker tub and spacious walk-in shower. A closet with five rails, big enough for you both to store your clothes in. Step outside and the care continues. A fully fenced backyard gives you privacy, security, and Saturday morning coffee in peace beneath the gazebo. A monitored security system and attached garage round out the amenities. Walk your kids down the street to new schools with excellent amenities. Launch a canoe or kayak on the Rideau River 2 km away or explore the miles of trails and numerous parks. Drive ten minutes down country roads to the charm of Manotick village, or just 20 km into the heart of Ottawa. This is a family community with real roots and easy access to everything. Middle units finished to this calibre simply do not come up often. This a better-than-new home has been lived in long enough to be perfected, but not long enough to show any wear.

I have listed a new property at 1169 Mosque Lake Road in Frontenac. See details here

Set on over four acres of mature forest, this charming log home offers a rare blend of heritage and comfort just minutes from the sparkling waters of Palmerston and Mosque Lakes. What began as a traditional log cabin has evolved over the years into a warm, welcoming retreat, where each renovation has honoured the home's rustic soul while bringing it gently into the present. Since 2018, the home has seen extensive renovations including new ceilings, floors, bathrooms, siding, a metal roof, and updated upstairs windows, all enhancing comfort while honouring its heritage. Three bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms provide ample space, while propane forced air heating and a mini-split heat pump keep the home efficient in every season. The living room opens onto a large deck that gazes out over perennial gardens and into the forest beyond, where deer pass by and the seasons unfold in rich, quiet beauty. For those drawn to the outdoors, this is a gateway to boundless adventure. Thousands of acres of nearby crown land invite exploration, hunting, and the freedom of ATV and snowmobile trails that stretch beyond the horizon. Both the Palmerston Lake and Mosque Lake boat launches are less than five minutes away, offering easy access to pristine waters ideal for fishing, paddling, or simply drifting beneath the sun. Despite the sense of deep seclusion, the property remains within easy reach of the city, with both Ottawa and Kingston under 90 minutes away. Whether you seek a permanent residence with soul or a seasonal refuge with all the comforts of home, this forested haven promises a life lived closer to nature and filled with quiet joy.

What if you and your parents could share a waterfront address without tripping over each other? This rare Clayton Lake property offers something almost never found on the water, two fully functional living units under one roof, each with its own kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, furnace, and electrical panel, allowing true independence rather than compromise. Imagine family just one floor away, close enough for Sunday dinners while still enjoying separate routines, private space, and everyday privacy. The walk-out lower level features two bedrooms, an office, and a three-season sunroom where lake views become part of daily life, while radiant in-floor heating keeps winter mornings cozy. Upstairs, the second unit expands to four bedrooms, a four-season sunroom designed for year-round enjoyment, and a private balcony that invites you to watch the sunset reflect across the water. Outside, Clayton Lake delivers the quiet rural lifestyle many buyers are searching for, with a clean shoreline, minimal weeds, and your own dock and boat launch ready for canoe adventures, fishing afternoons, and teaching grandchildren to swim, while winter brings access to nearby snowmobile trails. This is a family compound built for decades of shared memories, offering the opportunity to help children step into home ownership, keep parents close with peace of mind while preserving their independence, or live in one unit while rental income from the other helps carry the mortgage. Waterfront properties with two complete living spaces like this appear once in a decade, and the families who find them tend to hold on for generations. Your family's lake house is waiting, book your private showing before another family claims it.
