385 Templeton St, Ottawa, Ontario K1N 6Y1

Welcome to this charming three-storey home in the heart of Sandy Hill, offering a rare combination of classic character, generous living space, and thoughtful modern updates. The main level features beautiful hardwood flooring, timeless architectural details, and an abundance of natural light. A spacious living room centres around a cozy wood-burning fireplace, complemented by a bright bay window and custom-built bookshelves added in 2026. The updated kitchen showcases new cabinetry and countertops (2024), while the adjacent dining room opens directly onto a large deck overlooking a private garden-a peaceful outdoor oasis with stairs leading down to a leafy yard and a detached single-car garage. On the second floor, you'll find three well-proportioned bedrooms with generous storage and an updated full bathroom. The standout feature of the home is the third-floor loft retreat (renovated 2011), created by a roof lift that introduced soaring ceilings, skylights, bamboo flooring, and spectacular neighbourhood views. It serves as an ideal home office, family room, or creative studio. The fully finished lower level adds flexible functionality, complete with a full bathroom, laundry facilities, and room for a gym, guest suite, or recreation area. Modern comfort is ensured with a furnace system combined with a heat pump (2015) servicing the loft. Ideally situated steps from Strathcona Park, the Rideau River, the University of Ottawa, local dining, shops, and downtown, this home offers exceptional versatility, outdoor privacy, and a welcoming small-town feel in an unbeatable central location.
