Welcome to 500 Catherine Street in Ottawa-an absolutely move-in ready solid brick two-story home located in the heart of South Ottawa. This beautifully maintained property features brand new windows throughout the entire home, along with fresh paint, new carpet, a newer boiler system, and a newer roof. The home offers 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, including a master bedroom bath, a second full bathroom upstairs, and a powder room on the main floor. Did I mention that the master bath features heated floors? The main level offers a spacious living room and formal dining room featuring wood laminate flooring. The back of the home includes a small enclosed porch currently used as a mudroom. Enjoy a large patio and a huge backyard. You will love the front porch for your rainy summer days! Located in a stellar setting just across the bridge from downtown Ottawa, you'll enjoy easy access to local restaurants, shops, the summer farmers market and winter Kris Kringle Market, along with seasonal wine and beer fests, and just 15 minutes from Starved Rock and Matthiessen State Parks, with quick access to Route 6 and I-80 for convenient commuting. This home is maintenance-free and truly move-in ready, and it qualifies for multiple down payment assistance programs, including 100% financing and USDA loan options. Call for details.
