Original Remarks

Perched atop the Ottawa escarpment, the elevated ridge overlooking the river, stands the architecturally striking Cathedral Hill. On the 14th floor sits this refined 2 bedroom, 2 bath, 1078 square foot condominium residence with an additional, private 79 square foot terrace. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows frame spectacular views of the Ottawa River and Gatineau Hills while filling the open-concept living space with warmth and natural light. The thoughtfully designed kitchen features quartz countertops, sleek cabinetry, a custom pantry, and an upgraded Fulgor Milano induction stove with built-in oven, its clean lines flowing effortlessly into the living and dining area with a cozy fireplace and convenient automated blinds. The layout strikes an ideal balance of comfort and sophistication for both entertaining and everyday living. The primary bedroom offers a calm and private retreat with large windows and an additional custom closet system. The elegant 4-piece ensuite continues the home's modern aesthetic with refined materials and streamlined design. The second bedroom, with ample storage, provides versatile space for guests or a home office. This unit includes underground parking with personal EV charger and a storage locker. Residents of Cathedral Hill enjoy generous amenities including a fitness centre, lounge with catering kitchen, meeting space and guest suites. Designed by Windmill Developments, known for sustainability and architectural excellence, the tower rises beside the Gothic Christ Church Cathedral, blending historic stone with modern glass and clean contemporary lines. Located at the west end of Sparks Street, the setting is uniquely tranquil for downtown. Limited through-traffic, the cathedral grounds and largely empty government offices after hours create a rare offering: peaceful, walkable, and convenient urban living in one of Ottawa's most architecturally distinctive buildings.
