Tucked into the prestigious enclave of Rideau Forest in Manotick,this classic two-storey detached home sits on a private, southern-exposure 2-acre lot surrounded by mature trees & open meadows.The location is the headline: Rideau Forest is one of Ottawa's most coveted estate communities, prized for its large wooded lots, quiet country setting, & sense of seclusion-all while offering an easy commute to the city & just minutes from the charming shops, restaurants, & riverfront of Manotick village.Nearby golf & the natural beauty of the Rideau area only add to the appeal. It's a rare blend of pastoral privacy & everyday convenience.Inside, the home is designed for both family living & entertaining. A spacious kitchen opens to a light-filled family room, while a bonus sunroom with vaulted ceilings offers a flexible space ideal as an art studio or playroom.A dedicated home office makes remote work a pleasure, & a practical mudroom with separate entrance keeps a busy household organized. New hardwood graces the second level, where the generous primary bedroom (an impressive 25' x 12'9) anchors four bedrooms & the home's well-appointed bathrooms.The fully finished basement is a standout, offering additional 2 bedrooms, full bathroom, expansive recreation & games rooms, & a built-in bar.Thanks to the attached 3-car garage with a separate interior entrance leading down into the basement, this lower level presents the perfect opportunity for a multi-generational family setup or an in-law suite-offering privacy, independence, & a dedicated point of access while keeping everyone comfortably under one roof.Outdoors is where this property truly shines. Three patio-door walkouts-from the dining room, kitchen, & sunroom-lead to a fully fenced backyard built for memorable summers. An 18' x 36' saltwater pool with gas heater, ample lounging & BBQ space, & a firepit area set the stage for everything from quiet evenings to lively gatherings,all framed by trees & natural surroundings.
