101 Longford Lane

Description

Turn off the road, climb the drive through the hardwood bush, and the trees open onto 2.33 private acres at the end of a Dunrobin cul-de-sac. The cedar sided house resembles a chalet with steep rooflines, arched windows and a covered porch. Lovingly maintained by the same family for the last 35 years, it is ready for new owners. Inside, the main floor is one bright, connected space. The renovated kitchen, with white cabinetry, stainless appliances and a large island with seating, opens to the dining area and a 17 by 25 foot living room with a mantelled fireplace at one end and a freestanding wood stove at the other. Hardwood runs throughout. A gorgeous sitting room off the dining area offers calming views from the large picture windows, and the laundry and powder room are conveniently tucked off the foyer. Upstairs, the large primary bedroom has a walk in closet and its own full bath. Two more bedrooms share a second full bath, and both baths are lit by skylights. A bright second floor family room opens over the railing to the floor below. The finished lower level adds a recreation room of nearly 500 square feet, currently a studio and home office, plus generous storage. Out back, the deck was rebuilt in 2024 and faces nothing but forest, with no rear neighbours and two outbuildings set back in the trees. The circular drive is convenient with room for many vehicles. The expensive work is done: roof 2022, windows 2024, deck and water treatment 2024, furnace and heat pump 2025, kitchen 2018, main and ensuite baths 2014 and powder room 2025. A propane fired Generac standby generator keeps the power on during the storms. Ten minutes to Constance Bay's beach and boat launch, twenty to Kanata's shops, restaurants and Kanata North, with quick access to the 417 via March Road. Country quiet, without the drive that usually comes with it.
