968 Walkley Road, Ottawa

Welcome to this beautifully updated 3-bed, 3-bath bungalow, perfectly designed for a young or growing family! Nestled on a large landscaped lot just steps to rec centres, schools, parks, shopping, and Mooney's Bay, this home combines comfort, convenience, and fun all in one. The property also offers a detached single-car garage and additional driveway parking, mature hedging and trees for privacy, plus a paved front walkway. Step inside to a bright, open-concept layout where hardwood floors flow through the living and dining areas - the perfect spot for family movie nights or cozying up around the stone-surround gas fireplace. The dining area features a large picture window (with a built-in window seat/bench beneath) that fills the space with natural light. The spacious eat-in kitchen offers plenty of counter space for baking with the kids, stainless steel appliances and crisp white cabinetry, and easy walk-out access via a sliding glass door to the raised deck and backyard for BBQs and entertaining outdoors. Completing the main level, all three bedrooms are generously sized, with a freshly modernized 4-piece main bath featuring a new white vanity, black fixtures, and marble-accent tile. The primary suite offers its own 2-piece en-suite plus direct access to the backyard via the sliding door, making pool days a breeze! The finished lower level is a family-friendly bonus: a huge rec/games room with pot lighting, neutral carpeting, built-in storage/cabinets, an extra bathroom, dedicated laundry, and storage for all the toys, crafts, and holiday bins. Outside, your private, fully fenced backyard is pure summer magic - relax on the composite deck, lounge in the pool-side seating area, or dive into the sparkling INGROUND POOL (with stone/ concrete coping and ladder) for endless fun with family and friends. Recent updates mean peace of mind: flooring (2025), fresh paint (2025), furnace (2024), pool liner & sand filter (2025), fence (2022), roof (2013), and more! This is more than a house, it's the backdrop for backyard birthday parties, family BBQs, and years of new memories. (id:1945)
