PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
You have been saving and working your way to that down payment and now you are ready to buy your first home and start climbing the property ladder. Maybe you grew up in Barrhaven, work in the south end of the city or maybe you’re simply looking for something newer and turn key will provide that peace of mind that you won’t have any unexpected big ticket repairs or maintenance in the near future . Now…. You’re seeing what’s available in your budget and you don’t love the idea of a condo apartment which is just a little too tight on space … but then the larger freehold townhomes are juuust a little out of reach.
Enter 34 Affinity Pvt — this condo townhome is less than five years old and is the perfect hybrid offering a townhome multi-level layout while still providing the conveniences and affordability of a condo.
This stacked condo townhome is located Heritage Park, a convenient and accessible pocket in Ottawa’s popular south end community of Barrhaven. Here you have the benefit of being just a few minutes from transit, retail, restaurants and daily amenities at Barrhaven Town Centre & Chapman Mills Marketplace, while sitting within a quiet enclave of townhomes surrounded by greenspace, not towering high rises and high density development.
34 Affinity Pvt is an adorable two-bedroom, two-bathroom townhome. This is the Jasmine model, a popular floorplan offered by Minto Homes at the time of construction because it is a corner unit which means there is no attached neighbour on the south side, and an extra bank of windows in the living area; this is the stacked condo equivalent of an end unit townhome.
a subtle but very valuable detail is that this specific unit faces the parking area, meaning, unlike the other stacked townhomes on the other side of the building, your dedicated parking space it right outside your front door. Better still the parking and exterior elements are all maintained by the condo corporation meaning no snow shovelling in the winter or cutting grass in the spring and summer.
A short flight of stairs leads to your entrance which opens into a welcoming and open concept main floor living area. There is plenty of space in your entry, with durable 12x12 tiles laid in a staggered pattern, a full coat closet and room to easily drop your bags of groceries while getting your coat and shoes off.
The primary highlight of the main floor is the functional kitchen, efficiently designed with a full stainless steel appliance set including a dishwasher in the island, with double sink and enough space for three stools and accompanying place settings.
The living area is large enough to comfortably accommodate separate living and dining, but also works great as an oversized living room with luxury vinyl plank flooring, an extra bank of windows, and patio doors with sidelights opening up to your low maintenance composite balcony with views of the park, and with enough room for your patio set and BBQ, just in time for summer.
It is also important to point out the two-piece bathroom on this level, which means no sharing your main bathroom with guests.
Downstairs there are two generous sized bedrooms, the full bathroom and your full sized laundry. As you'll see this is a great set up for a couple or single professional, with the second bedroom offering plenty of space for use as a home office or spare room for guests.
This is truly a perfect starter home for savvy buyers ready to take the jump into home ownership. Available for under $400,000; even with homeownership costs such as property taxes and condo fees --which are super reasonable here, by the way -- this is still a relatively affordable and achievable alternative to renting or feeling stuffed into a smaller condo apartme
