Description
Welcome to this warm, renovated, and inviting home. The main living area features classic wood floors and cathedral ceilings, creating an open, comfortable space to relax. The bright, practical kitchen was recently refreshed with new countertops, sink and faucet. Upstairs offers a comfortable primary bedroom and a cozy second room, ideal for a nursery or office. The fully finished basement expands your living space with a second renovated full bathroom and a versatile third room perfect for guests or remote work. Outside, the large backyard is set up for everyday enjoyment, featuring a spacious deck with an awning. Make it your home.
This property is distinguished by a series of recent
updates focused on functional longevity and a clean design
language, minimizing the need for immediate upgrades. The
roof was entirely replaced in 2026, ensuring long-term
peace of mind. The kitchen underwent a thoughtful refresh
in 2026, incorporating new, sleek countertops, a modern
sink, and a new faucet. The home features two renovated
full bathrooms: the basement bathroom was completely
modernized in 2025, and the upstairs bathroom was updated a
few years prior. The basement itself was fully finished and
painted in 2025, offering a quiet, versatile space. The
architectural cathedral ceilings and wood floors in the
main living area anchor the home in natural, noble
materials.
Life on Rue de la Forteresse offers a calm, balanced
routine grounded in local convenience. Mornings begin
easily with a quick drop-off at the nearby elementary
school or daycare center. For the daily commute, public
transport and a network of bicycle paths are readily
accessible just steps from the property. Weekend mornings
might involve a quick stop at the local coffee shops or
picking up lunch from nearby local staples like Restaurant
Lee or Patio Vidal along Chemin de Masson. In the evening,
maybe you'll go play at the park with the kids or take a
nice stroll. For larger outdoor excursions, the property is
a relatively short drive from Gatineau Park, which offers
361 square kilometres of trails and natural areas for
hiking and cycling.
From a financial standpoint, this property presents a
highly strategic acquisition. The extensive recent capital
improvements--notably the 2026 roof, 2026 kitchen updates,
and the 2025 basement renovation--drastically minimize
immediate capital expenditures for the new owner. For a
long-term buyer, this turnkey condition preserves liquid
capital for other investments or top-loading savings goals.
For an investor, the functional layout, including a
dedicated basement room ideal for a home office, appeals
directly to the remote-work demographic and supports a
strong rental yield. The Masson-Angers sector continues to
show steady appreciation due to its balance of suburban
tranquillity and its straightforward access to major
Gatineau infrastructure.
