Description

Welcome to 55 Rue du Rhône, a custom-built home carefully maintained by its original owners in Gatineau's desirable Mont Luc neighbourhood, only 15 minutes from Ottawa. The interior features warm wood floors, a beautiful cherry wood kitchen, and a fully renovated 5-piece bathroom with heated floors. Built for everyday practicality, a mudroom connects directly to the oversized 1.5-car garage.

This is a thoughtfully designed home offering exceptional comfort and quality, and all the little luxuries you need.

1) Property Description & Key Features Custom-built and meticulously maintained by its original owners, this home reflects a quiet luxury aesthetic anchored in noble materials. Significant investments over the years to ensure lasting quality, including the 2015 replacement of all window thermos and a timeless cherry wood kitchen. The upper level features a refined, fully renovated 5-piece bathroom complete with heated floors and a double-sink vanity. Designed for an active lifestyle, a practical mudroom connects the home to a 1.5-car garage with epoxy flooring. The property's standout feature is the exterior: a rare, custom-integrated BBQ and outdoor kitchen with prep surfaces, cabinetery and a sink with running water, as well as a large enclosed gazebo, and a private spa, creating an unparalleled outdoor living experience. So many features were incorporated into this property to promote ease of living and a focus on relaxing at home. The home has integrated storage and an automated irrigation system; the garage was repainted and has access to a large storage space; and the central vacuum has an access point there to clean your car. Furthermore, the property will include a 3-season shelter for the outdoor kitchen so you can cook rain or shine. The home was also built with high-end materials, boasting beautiful stone and brick.

2) A Day in the Life Life in Mont Luc offers a highly central, balanced routine. Mornings are simplified by immediate proximity to excellent daycares, elementary schools, and highly regarded semi-private high schools. For work or leisure, the location is exceptional: you are under 15 minutes from downtown Ottawa, and equally close to Chelsea, the Nordik Spa-Nature, and the expansive trails of Gatineau Park. Returning home is seamless--drop your bike or gym gear in the mudroom and step right into your sanctuary. Evenings naturally center around the backyard. Regardless of the weather, you can grill in the sheltered outdoor kitchen, host friends in the gazebo, and end the night unwinding in the spa.

3) Financial Focus & Investment Value Strategically, this custom home represents a high-confidence acquisition. Because it has been exclusively owned and upgraded by its original builders, the maintenance chain is unbroken. The extensive capital improvements already completed--from the custom outdoor kitchen and heated-floor bathroom to the upgraded windows--drastically minimize immediate capital expenditures (CapEx) for the next owner. The fully finished basement offers a low-cost way to add a fourth bedroom, which can increase immediate appreciation and maximize the property's future resale value in a consistently appreciating sector.
