About this home
Rare opportunity to own an iconic piece of Ottawa's history! The Wallis House, built in 1873, was converted to loft-style condos in 1996. With soaring ceilings, ample natural light, and exposed brick throughout, unit 404 has been completely updated for modern living while maintaining the authentic charm and character this building is known for. With a bright new kitchen with quartz countertops, a main floor powder room, and ensuite laundry, this thoughtful layout blends an open concept with functional division. With room for both formal dining, a kitchen island with additional seating, and a home office adjacent to a generous living room with a gas fireplace, this condo accommodates any lifestyle. Upstairs, a spacious loft bedroom and newly renovated ensuite blend seamlessly with the classic features and modern comforts. Backing onto Macdonald Gardens Park, the Wallis House offers both downtown living in a prime location simultaneously and your own private escape with abundant greenspace and a rooftop terrace. Walking distance to Strathcona Park, the Ottawa River, bike trails, and the ByWard Market, this condo is a must see!
