A Different Kind of Kanata Lifestyle
There is something special about finding a home where you can have the space and privacy of country living without giving up the convenience of the city. That’s what makes 50 Marchvale Drive worth another look.
Set on approximately two private acres in Marchvale Estates, this impressive estate home offers the kind of space that is increasingly difficult to find this close to Kanata.
And while the photographs are beautiful, one of the things they can’t fully communicate is the scale of this property.
Space to Live Differently
With approximately 3,670 sq. ft. above grade, 50 Marchvale was designed on a different scale than many traditional suburban homes. Generous principal rooms, large windows and vaulted ceilings give the home a bright and spacious feeling while still providing clearly defined areas for family life, entertaining and working from home. The kitchen sits at the heart of the home, opening to the breakfast area and family room and looking toward the backyard, pool and surrounding trees.
It’s a home that can comfortably handle everyday family life while still providing the space to gather a much larger group.
Flexibility for Family and Guests
How families use their homes continues to change. Adult children may be at home longer. Parents and extended family visit or live together. More people work from home. And many buyers simply want a home that gives everyone a little more room.
The scale and layout of 50 Marchvale provide that flexibility. The primary suite is substantial, with vaulted ceilings, a sitting area, walk-in closets and an updated ensuite. Another bedroom has its own private ensuite, providing valuable additional privacy for family members or overnight guests. The finished lower level creates even more room for recreation, fitness, hobbies or simply spreading out.
A Backyard that Changes how you Live in Summer
Then there is the property itself. Approximately two acres surrounded by mature trees creates a level of privacy that’s difficult to reproduce in a traditional subdivision. The heated in-ground pool and pool house transform the backyard during the warmer months. There’s room to entertain, room for children and pets and room to simply enjoy being outside without feeling surrounded by neighbouring homes.
Estate Living without the Long Drive
Perhaps the most interesting thing about 50 Marchvale is the balance. You can come home to acreage, trees, privacy and a pool — yet remain only minutes from Kanata North and the conveniences of Ottawa’s west end. For buyers who love the idea of an estate property but aren’t prepared to sacrifice proximity to work, schools, shopping and recreation, communities like Marchvale deserve a closer look.
Some Homes Need to be Experienced.
Real estate is increasingly discovered through a screen.
Buyers scroll through photographs, floor plans and listings quickly, sometimes making decisions about properties before ever walking through the front door.
But some homes don’t translate completely through photographs.
50 Marchvale is one of them.
You need to experience the size of the rooms, look through the windows toward the trees and pool and understand how much property surrounds you.
If you’ve seen 50 Marchvale online before, perhaps it’s worth another look.
