Owners’ comments

Stunning waterfront property minutes from downtown Ottawa!

This 3700 square foot home has 4 bedrooms (plus double garage and workshop), two independent living rooms and a large open area perfect for entertaining and taking in the stunning sunsets that grace the multiple windows year round.  Expanded and re-designed by architect-owner Douglas Hardie, this home is characterised by its orientation to the Lake Deschênes (to maximise the view from every room), the privacy of its 94 feet water frontage as well as its heavy reliance on natural materials (wood, shingles, granite, brick) to marry interior charm to outdoor nature. The grand room (dining room and double living room) exudes a modern-rustic and welcoming style and is a perfect place to gather loved ones or to succumb to a peaceful retreat.

This expansive home is situated in Aylmer (Gatineau) on the Ottawa River. It is nestled on a sprawling and private lot in the prime location of Whychwood with a direct access to a pebble beach for water activities or your own boating station. 

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

Fireplace and wood stove 

20 plus foot cathedral ceiling in second living room

Panoramic water views from every room (except one bedroom)

This online tool was created to help you plan and calculate your payments on a mortgage loan. The results are estimates based on the information you enter. They can change depending on your financial situation and budget when the loan is granted.

The steps involved in buying a property

Could this property be “the one”? Here’s an overview of the steps involved in becoming the owner. These steps and the legal implications remain the same whether the property is purchased from an individual or through a broker.

1
Financing

One of the first things to do when looking for a property is to get a mortgage preapproval from a financial institution. The goal is to determine borrowing capacity, and as a result, the price range to be looking in.

2
Offer to purchase

The property suits the budget and needs? Time to submit an offer to purchase! This document sets out the price, the elements included in the sale, the possession date, the conditions of purchase and all other information relevant to the sale.

Need the form?

3
Conditions of purchase

The offer to purchase generally includes conditions. The most common are the property passing an inspection, the buyer providing proof of financing and the buyer selling their own property. Once the listed conditions are met, the property is considered sold.

4
Property transfer

The last step is to see a notary, who is generally chosen by the buyer. This real estate professional drafts the deed of sale and ensures that the interests of all parties involved are respected.

Once the deed of sale is notarized, the new owner gets the keys to the home. All that’s left is to move in!
