Description

149 Daly Avenue - The Besserer House. A truly rare offering and one of Ottawa's most storied heritage homes, originally built for Louis-Theodore Besserer, the Father of Sandy Hill. This iconic residence is rich in architectural character and historical significance, standing as a landmark of 19th-century craftsmanship. Located in the heart of prestigious Sandy Hill, the home features grand principal rooms, tall ceilings, large windows, original details, and hardwood floors that reflect a timeless elegance rarely found today. Natural light fills the space, highlighting its stately proportions and enduring design. Beyond its historic charm, the Besserer House offers exceptional redevelopment and restoration potential. Whether envisioned as a remarkable single-family estate, boutique multi-unit residence, professional offices, or legacy investment, the property provides a versatile canvas for inspired transformation (buyer to verify permitted uses). Set just steps from the University of Ottawa, embassies, downtown core, Rideau River pathways, and cultural landmarks, this address blends history, prestige, and convenience. An opportunity of this calibre is seldom available. Own a piece of Ottawa's heritage and shape its future. 3 bedroom basement apartment is rented for $1950/month and 1 bedroom Butler's apartment is rented for $800/month.
