Property Description
A rare mid-century executive estate of exceptional architectural pedigree, designed in 1955 as the personal home and studio of renowned Outaouais architect René Richard. Its signature V-shaped plan, dramatic beams, walls of glass and central hearth create luminous, flowing interiors. Nearly 6,000 sq. ft. of total measured space, a private pool oasis, double car garage, spacious basement workshop, flexible studio suite, and mature grounds deliver a truly distinctive urban lifestyle. Walking distance from the Hull hospital and many other health services, NCC trails, schools, shopping, restaurants and more. A true one of a kind masterpiece.
Second unit inclusions: refrigerator, stove dishwasher, microwave/range hood, washer, dryer, all window treatments, wifi wall mounted heat pump, air exchanger, original built in architect's desk and storage cabinets.
+ This property boasts a rare architectural provenance and a strong connection to the region's modernist legacy.
+ Featured in Canadian Homes & Gardens in 1956 for its bold design and distinctive V-shaped plan.
+ Recognized in Gatineau's Modern Heritage Inventory as a significant example of 20th-century architecture.
+ Approximately 6,027 sq ft of measured interior area is indicated on the available floor plans, with generous living spaces across two levels.
+ The signature V-shaped footprint turns principal rooms toward the rear grounds, creating privacy, natural light and a strong indoor-outdoor connection.
+ Exposed wood beams, expansive glazing, hardwood floors and a central brick hearth give the living and dining spaces exceptional character.
+ Unique pentagonal dining area forms an architectural hub, with vaulted construction and exposed wood beams.
+ Bright renovated kitchen with contemporary cabinetry, wood accents, centre island and breakfast area blends modern function with the home's design.
+ Spacious primary retreat with dressing area and marble-clad ensuite featuring a deep jetted tub and separate shower.
+ Two additional bedrooms, and a bathroom on the main floor and a 4th bedroom on the lower level with ensuite bathroom, offer flexible living areas to accommodate family, guests, work-from-home needs and multigenerational living.
+ The former architect's studio is now an approximately 1,100 sq ft self-contained accessory suite with separate entrance, retaining generous proportions and restored original built-ins and desk. Ideal for professional use, extended family or income potential, subject to applicable regulations and buyer verification.
+ Radiant heating provides quiet comfort, complemented by upgraded HVAC systems; radiant ceiling heat on the main level and heated floors in parts of the lower level and studio apartment.
+ Private rear grounds are framed by mature hedging and landscaping, creating a secluded urban retreat. In-ground pool with renewed liner and refreshed surround, plus deck and patio areas, creates a resort-like setting for summer entertaining.
+ Attached garage and driveway provide ample parking.
+ Centrally located in Hull near Hôpital de Hull, Collège Nouvelle-Frontière and neighbourhood schools, with convenient access to downtown Ottawa, Zibi, Place du Portage and Gatineau Park.
+ A singular opportunity for buyers seeking architectural distinction, substantial scale, privacy and versatility in the National Capital Region.
