55 SMIRLE AVENUE, Ottawa, Ontario, K1Y 0S2

Property Information:

For 40+ years, this charming home has belonged to the same family and has been more than an address - it's been a place to settle in, get to know the neighbours by name, and watch a community grow around you. Set on a tree-lined street in the heart of Wellington West Village, it's the kind of neighbourhood people choose intentionally, then put down roots for generations. The covered porch has been a place to connect with neighbours over morning coffee and opens to a generous foyer that sets the tone for a home that is much larger than it looks from the street. The main floor unfolds easily, featuring an open living and dining room that feels grounded in tradition, alongside a sunlit family room with two large skylights that quietly became the heart of this home. What makes this layout especially rare is the flexibility: a true main-floor bedroom and three-piece bathroom. It's a floor plan that adapts - whether for guests, aging in place, or simply the comfort of everyday life without stairs. A thoughtfully designed addition in 1999 expanded the main floor living space with a full height foundation below creating many options for future uses such as a studio, gym or huge home office. Upstairs, two bedrooms and a large bathroom continue the home's calm, comfortable rhythm. Throughout both levels, original trim, woodwork, and hardwood floors quietly reflect the home's vintage charm, while behind the scenes, major updates to electrical, furnace, roof, windows, drywall and energy-efficient improvements bring peace of mind. Step outside and the story continues: local shops, cafés, excellent schools, LRT transit, and bike paths are all part of daily life here. This is a neighbourhood where roots run deep - where it's easy to imagine putting yours down too.
