An exceptional 7-bedroom, 4,800 sq ft property offering a rare combination of high-quality construction, thoughtful design, and functional living space — set on a private 4-acre lot just 13 minutes from downtown Ottawa.
Custom-built with exterior walls twice the standard thickness and superior insulation, the home is engineered for exceptional thermal efficiency. A geothermal system handles heating and cooling across 4 independent zones — keeping total utility costs to just $350/month, close to half of a comparable Gatineau home, and less than half of a comparable Ottawa home.
The property stands out for its 300-metre-deep private forest, complete with private trails and bordered by the land of Nakkertok Nordic Centre — one of the Ottawa region's premier cross-country ski clubs.
The house sits on a small hill and cannot be seen from the street, approached via a 70-metre driveway that creates a remarkable sense of arrival. Peaceful countryside views, open landscapes, and neighbouring horses are visible from the home.
A perfect upgrade for families who want more space, a private natural setting, an outdoor lifestyle — and a 13-minute commute to downtown.
