A two-storey home with spectacular views in the Old Village of Rockcliffe Park is now one of the most expensive homes ever sold in the city of Ottawa.
Marilyn Wilson Dream Properties announced the sale of a 13,961 sq. ft. home on Manor Avenue, saying it sold for the fourth-highest price for a listed home ever in the capital.
The home was listed at $7 million. Marilyn Wilson would not disclose the sale price to CTV News Ottawa.
"I am delighted to announce this record-breaking sale, which establishes a new standard for the luxury home market in Canada’s capital. Marketing this significant property and finding the right buyer has been another milestone for our brokerage," Wilson said in a statement.
