Property Information:
This rare, early modernist home was designed by renowned architect Hart Massey in 1952. Massey, son of former Governor General Vincent Massey, created fewer than 10 homes in Ottawa, showcasing his mastery in simplicity and clarity. Set on a deep lot with distant winter views of the Quebec hills, this one-story home sits at a high point, surrounded by forest. The south-facing public spaces, including the kitchen, dining, living room, and sun porch, are bathed in natural light, while the private bedrooms offer serene seclusion. The home’s modern design features floor-to-ceiling windows, slim baseboards, and door frames that enhance its sense of openness. Built by master craftsman Heinrich Kruger, the home is a unique blend of history, architecture, and craftsmanship. A former limestone quarry, across the street, adds to the area’s charm, a truly special find plus, no front/rear neighbours. Estate sale, no representations or warranties.
