120 Boteler Street Ottawa, Ontario K1N 5A6
$1,185,000
A completely restored and thoughtfully modernized example of 1899 architecture, this exceptional Lower Town residence seamlessly blends historic character with contemporary performance. Between 2007 and 2009, the home underwent an extensive, architect-led restoration by Urban Keios, with structural and mechanical engineering by Houle Chevrier, ensuring heritage integrity while incorporating modern systems and efficiencies. The exterior showcases charming gingerbread detailing, with original brickwork meticulously repointed and selectively replaced where required. The original front porch and façade were carefully restored and faithfully reproduced, while the rear façade has been updated with wood siding. The iconic original front door - complete with its charming bell ring-was preserved and relocated to the front entry. The east foundation wall has been recently excavated and professionally waterproofed. Inside, the home offers a rare combination of historic craftsmanship and modern infrastructure. The original staircase and handrails have been restored, complemented by custom solid-core interior doors, trims, and baseboards reproduced from original profiles found on site. Engineered hardwood floors grace the main level, while the original pine floors have been restored and reinstalled on the second and third levels. Comfort and efficiency were central to the renovation. Original hot water radiators were replaced with a modern forced-air heating and cooling system, supplemented by electric underfloor heating in both second-level bathrooms. Custom wood double-hung windows and new window sills on the east side further enhance performance and authenticity. Major infrastructure upgrades include a new sewer line separated from the neighbouring property (2009), a new water service and meter, and a new underground 200-amp hydro and gas service. A rare offering, this residence stands as a beautifully restored and fully modernized heritage home. (id:37072)
