Some homes check the boxes. This one fills the rooms. 364 Sterling Avenue is a 2021-built Longwood Calais model on one of Morris Village's most desirable family streets. From the moment you pull into the double car garage, it delivers exactly what move-up buyers in the Ottawa area have been searching for.
Set on a generous lot in Rockland's established Morris Village neighbourhood, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offers 2,197 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space above grade, plus a nearly finished lower level that adds serious value for families needing room to grow. At roughly 30 minutes from Ottawa and within walking distance of parks and schools, it sits in the exact sweet spot between small-town quality of life and city accessibility.
Main Level
The main floor is built around an open-concept layout that works for real family life, not just listing photos. The living room anchors the space with a cozy gas fireplace, giving the room a genuine focal point through Ottawa winters and cool fall evenings alike. The dining area flows naturally from the kitchen, making it easy to host a dinner party or manage a school-night routine without the house feeling crowded.
The gourmet kitchen is where this home separates itself. Quartz countertops, ample cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a large central island with breakfast bar seating handle everything from Sunday morning pancakes to entertaining on long weekends. The layout keeps the cook connected to the living and dining areas rather than isolated behind a wall, which is exactly how families actually use their homes.
Upper Level
Upstairs, the primary suite offers a proper retreat: a walk-in closet and a well-appointed 3-piece ensuite with a clean, contemporary finish. Three additional bedrooms are genuinely good-sized, each able to accommodate a queen bed, a proper desk, and storage. A full 3-piece main bathroom serves the secondary bedrooms without compromise. Second-level laundry rounds out the upper floor, eliminating one of the most common complaints of the two-storey family home.
Lower Level
The finished lower level punches well above its weight. A large recreation room provides the flexible space families inevitably need as kids grow, whether that becomes a home theatre, a playroom, a gym, or a combination of all three. A separate room adjacent to the rec room functions comfortably as a guest bedroom or a home office, with enough separation from the main living areas to work for either purpose. Ample storage keeps the practical realities of family life off the main floor.
Exterior
Outside, the backyard offers real usable space without the maintenance burden of an oversized lot. The double car garage provides protected parking and additional storage beyond what a single-car garage can offer, which matters when Ottawa winters require you to have a clean car for work the next morning.
364 Sterling Avenue is the kind of home that rarely needs to be explained. It was built right, positioned well, and maintained carefully. For a growing family ready to stop compromising on space, this is the move-up home that ends the search.
