Dating to 1892, this Sandy Hill residence is a rare opportunity to steward one of Ottawa's enduring architectural treasures. Positioned on sought-after Wilbrod Street, among some of the capital's most significant diplomatic residences, the property occupies an impressive 6,549-square-foot lot with a remarkable 99-foot frontage and outstanding street presence. Having remained in the same family for an extraordinary 87 years, this is a truly rare offering in one of Ottawa's most established and prestigious neighbourhoods. The handsome brick façade, framed by mature landscaping, is complemented by a classic front veranda featuring elegant columns and period-inspired detailing. Rich in character and architectural charm, the residence makes an immediate impression and stands as a notable presence within the streetscape. Proudly situated beside the Australian High Commission and across from the Brazilian Embassy, the location reflects the prestige and international character that define this coveted enclave. Just moments from Parliament Hill, the University of Ottawa, Strathcona Park, and the Rideau River, residents enjoy an exceptional urban lifestyle in a setting steeped in history. Spanning three storeys, the home presents an extraordinary canvas for a sensitive restoration. Requiring significant renovation, it offers a rare opportunity to revive and enhance a residence of considerable architectural significance. Generous principal rooms, substantial scale, and original architectural elements provide the foundation for an extraordinary future residence.
