Our family lives in a five bedroom house in North Beacon Hill, Ottawa. The neighbourhood is safe and quiet, in close location to a bus stop and a 20 min. ride straight to downtown, Ottawa. I live with my two children, my teenage daughter and younger son.
Our house is a split level, detached, with 2 bathrooms, a spacious living room, and a comfortable kitchen that connects into the dining room. We have a furnished sun room with its own bathroom, that leads into a large, fully fenced background that is perfect for summer BBQ's.
There are many schools in the surrounding area, from elementary all the way up to high school. (Colonel By Secondary School, which is only ten minutes away from our house, is rated as the second best in Ontario). We are a pet and smoking free house!
