A rare opportunity in the heart of North Gower! Built in 1890, this charming 2-bedroom home sits on an impressive 50' x 170' lot and offers far more than just a place to call home. With its village setting, convenient location and versatile VM7 Village Mixed-Use zoning, this property presents an exciting opportunity for homeowners, entrepreneurs, investors or anyone looking to explore something beyond traditional residential use. Ideally situated just 15 minutes from Ottawa, Manotick and Kemptville, with easy access to Highway 416, the property combines the appeal of small-village living with convenient access to surrounding communities. Inside, you'll find two upstairs bedrooms, a 4-piece bathroom, well-proportioned living and dining rooms, a bright eat-in kitchen and a welcoming front sunroom overlooking the village. The home has seen several important updates, including replacement of several windows, a furnace, washer, dryer and pressure tank in 2022, and a roof completed approximately 10 years ago. Two sump pumps provide additional peace of mind. One of the standout features is the VM7 Village Mixed-Use zoning, offering a broad range of potential residential, commercial and community-oriented uses, subject to applicable regulations and approvals. Whether you're envisioning a home-based business, professional office, small commercial venture or another permitted use, the zoning provides flexibility that is increasingly difficult to find in a village setting. Adding even more value is the substantial detached barn/garage, approximately 30' x 25', complete with 100-amp service. Ideal for storage, a workshop, hobbies or business-related use, this additional space further expands the property's possibilities. Character, location, mixed-use zoning, generous lot size and a detached barn all come together to create a property with plenty of opportunity. Bring your ideas and explore the possibilities!
