GLEBE Canal home steps to TD Place Lansdowne
Choose a coffee table book and spend an evening by a living room fireplace. Prepare for bed in a marble-lined bathroom with vintage-chic fixtures and get cozy in a fluffy robe. In the morning discover a gourmet kitchen and a back deck for fresh air. This FAB sparkling-clean gem is at the Fifth Avenue entrance to Ottawa's world famous Canal. We work hard to make your vacation or work stay a 5 STAR experience and ALL of our guests have agreed that this home delivers! Please read the reviews. They are outstanding. My Airbnb is close to EVERYTHING in Ottawa's best neighbourhood, the Glebe. Walk to TDPlace (3min), the Lansdowne stadium, Carleton University, restaurants, theatres, shopping and Bank Street. Just a hop along the Canal to Parliament, downtown, the Byward market, CHEO and Ottawa U. Cozy and homey. Warm and welcoming. Fun and functional. * Brand new Beauty Rest 2,000 coil King bed * Brand new Kingsdown Queen bed * Fluffy robes * Wood Burning Fireplace * Crate and Barrel Queen Sofa bed. * White goose down Duvets. * Ralph Lauren linens. * Old world charm / Lofty ceilings and high baseboards. * NETFLIX, CNN, 50" 4K resolution TV * High speed internet Rogers Ignite 5G service * Free Parking * Outdoor decks (Front and back of house). * Close to EVERYTHING. Just some of the comforts you will enjoy in my home. The eat-in chef’s kitchen is well stocked with stemware, dishes, pots, pans, 3 coffee makers, blenders, toasters, kettles, a bread maker, a popcorn maker and a crock pot. There is a whisper quiet dishwasher, gas stove, microwave, Sub Zero fridge and granite countertops . We also provide spices, olive oil, popcorn, paper towels and breakfast essentials such as STARBUCKS coffee, tea, cereal and oatmeal during your stay. The wood burning fireplace and 50 inch Smart TV (NETFLIX) are great for all. Business guests will enjoy the HIGH SPEED internet (Rogers Ignite 200 Mbps service), access to fitness, private decks and free parking. We also put in a land line telephone so that you can make local calls using a telephone rather than your cell phone. A voice activated, 50 inch, 4K high resolution TV and wood burning fireplace will make you want to stay in, but the supreme location near Lansdowne and the Canal will get you out and enjoying your day. Host speaks French and English to help you with your stay. This Glebe home is a great home away from home! It is a secure and private retreat and all yours during your stay. Great access to the Canal, shopping, fitness, theatres, grocery stores, Bank Street, Lansdowne, Whole Foods, Starbucks and the LCBO. Walking distance to Carleton University, the University of Ottawa, Parliament Hill and downtown. Very safe and vibrant neighbourhood. Well-lit entrance to the street. Sparkling clean. There is a little front deck and a larger back deck for guests to use. Lansdowne, the Canal and three city parks are just out the door but it is still nice to enjoy a drink on the patio. The" baby park" is two doors down but there is a large city park with an open air swimming pool, baseball diamond, dog park and tulips! Still have questions? Ask away. I look forward to hearing from you soon! Donna Self check-in with door code for entry. Check in is at 3 pm, check out by 11 am. Host is available when needed and can meet guests at the home if requested. The house is in the Lansdowne neighborhood, close to theaters, restaurants, entertainment venues, and community parks. Walk to Carleton University, U of O and take a short transit ride to Parliament Hill. The Rideau Canal is out the front door. The best way to get around the Glebe is to walk but we are also very close to Bank Street where the #1 or #7 will take you right downtown. You can also walk along the Canal to get downtown. Easy walking or biking distance to Carleton University and Ottawa U. Additional parking can be provided for $30 per night. Guests must park only in the designated parking spot. (Thanks!) Absolutely no smoking or vaping inside the home or on the property. No parties. Guests must respect quiet hours between 11 pm and 7 am. Guests must be mindful of neighbours.
