306 Cathcart St

Ottawa, ON K1N 5C4

Located directly across from King Edward Park and just steps from Bordeleau Park, 306 Cathcart is a Lowertown East gem. Tucked away in The Wedge (the most coveted block in the neighbourhood), this property offers a rare opportunity to experience the ideal balance between active lifestyle and urban accessibility. Just a stones throw from the Rideau River, Global Affairs, NRC, old City Hall, walking paths, basketball/tennis/pickleball courts, playgrounds/splash pads/boat dock, and a short walk to the restaurants, shops, and amenities of the Byward Market, public transit, galleries, and museums, this location has it all. This charming townhome is situated in a mature neighbourhood, and with only two owners in over 40 years, it has been well cared for. The spacious living area features ample natural light, vaulted ceilings, wood burning fireplace, and breathtaking views of the park/river through elevated windows and skylights. The sprawling layout allows for flexible uses, including space for a media centre, and added storage. The kitchen overlooks the back garden and has the potential to be opened up and customized, with the adjacent dining area offering added flexibility. Both bedrooms are generously sized with high ceilings, large windows, and charming loft spaces for added storage (or even extra sleeping capacity if desired!) With the additional door still intact, the home could easily be converted back to its original 3-bedroom layout. A finished basement provides additional living space, storage, and a full bathroom. Out back, enjoy a private oasis perfect for relaxing, gardening, and hosting outdoor dinner parties. With most of the big ticket items taken care of (roof 2021, Most windows 2019, new flooring throughout 2025, and full interior painting 2025), you can move in as-is, or realize your dream by customizing your ideal kitchen and bathrooms. With this great location, you won't necessarily need to drive, but 2 private parking spots are icing on the cake.
