Stylish Modern Single Home in Riverside South.
Across the Rideau River via the beautiful Vimy Memorial Bridge lies one of Ottawa’s fastest-growing urban areas: Riverside South. This community of over 20,000 residents is situated on the eastern bank of the Rideau River, in close proximity to Barrhaven. Developed by top builders—including Urbandale, Richcraft, and HN—over the course of over two decades, Riverside South is filled with large luxury single-family homes exhibiting Ottawa’s most modern architectural styles & interior finishes. Amenities in central Barrhaven can be reached in under 10 minutes by car, while the newly-opened Trillium line LRT extension reduces the downtown commute to ~30 minutes.
Here, you will find a number of incredible homes—including 530 Tenor Ridge, an exquisite single family home built by one of Ottawa’s most renowned production builders, HN Homes. This home is a 2023-built HN ‘Mayfair’, a stunning 4 bedroom / 4 bathroom home that exhibits the best of HN Homes’ architectural sophistication & fine interior detailing. Designed by local architect Christopher Simmonds, the home’s sophistication starts right from the exterior; 530 Tenor Ridge includes a high-end exterior materials palette comprised of premium brick, Hardie Siding and Hardie Trim. No vinyl siding throughout! The home’s modern exterior detailing is further accented with a modern cedar soffit over the entry and huge modern windows.
Step inside to find a spacious foyer, which leads to the first floor powder room, and a small interior ‘window’ that provides a glimpse of the main floor living spaces beyond. This home has been thoughtfully upgraded by the owners with no details spared: premium floor tile complements the well-placed accent walls and 8′-tall 3-panel shaker doors with black accents. Gleaming natural-tone oak flooring extends throughout the first floor, both second floor and basement staircases, and the second-floor loft area.
The Mayfair model includes a unique main floor layout. Behind the foyer is a spacious chef’s kitchen, featuring dual-tone flat panel cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, gleaming quartz countertops and an oversized window over the sink. Behind it, the well-proportioned dining room is bathed in natural light, thanks to an expansive 8′ tall 3-panel sliding door with wraparound corner window. Opposite the dining and kitchen is a stunning family room with vaulted ceilings raised to 18′ at peak; another soaring window adorns the living room & provides great natural lighting.
All of the main floor living spaces link to the central gas fireplace column: HN is known for their architectural interior fireplaces, which provide a meaningful degree of separation while serving as a unique central focal point. In this home, the central linear gas fireplace makes entertaining even more convenient, allowing the living and dining spaces to be used for disparate groups. The home’s staircase is located by the vaulted living room, featuring HN’s signature glass railings. A spacious first-floor mudroom provides access to the full two-car garage.
Upstairs, the Mayfair includes three spacious bedrooms along with a cozy second-floor loft overlooking the vaulted-ceiling living room. This space could be perfect as a home office, reading nook, upstairs games room, or could be converted into a fourth bedroom. The well-sized primary suite faces the backyard with another huge corner window, stylish coffered ceiling, and two separate closets. The 5-pc primary ensuite is thoughtfully finished with premium floor & wall tile, dual-sink quartz vanity, walk-in shower and a windowed soaker tub.
Both secondary bedrooms face forwards, with HN signature modern windows overlooking the front yard. One bedroom includes a windowed walk-in closet, while both bedrooms share a convenient main bathroom with separated water closet & bathtub space. The oversized laundry room is incredibly convenient, with a full set of built in uppers and quartz counters over the washer/dryer unit. No details have been spared throughout this floor, from the 12 x 24 tile throughout to the modern linear light fixtures and bathroom faucets.
Downstairs, the fully-finished basement adds c. 500 sq. ft. of additional living space, complete with two large egress windows for suitable natural illumination. This level includes a full bedroom and bathroom, making it perfect as a teen retreat or guest suite.
