The LakeLander is one of Ottawa's best kept secrets. Situated at the edge of The Glebe in the Dow's Lake area, this boutique condominium building has much to offer the discriminating buyer. Seven stories in height, with the seventh level housing the larger penthouse suites, The LakeLander was built by Clarksmith in 1990. There are many different floorplans available. Some offer one bedroom plus a den, others have two bedrooms and some have three bedrooms. Most of the suites have balconies opening off the master bedroom and the living room. However, some have a walk-out to a private patio and spacious grassed area. Others, which do not have outdoor access, offer a wonderful view of Dow's Lake and the canal. The LakeLander is wheelchair accessible and is on a bus line to three hospitals.
Each suite has ensuite laundry facilities and most have eat-in kitchens and two bathrooms. Wall-to-wall carpeting was installed when the building was new; however, many suites have since upgraded to hardwood or laminate flooring. The original cushionflooring is still evident in some apartments while others have ceramic tile in the kitchens and bathrooms. Some suites are finished with wood-burning fireplaces; all suites are air conditioned.
A parking space in the underground garage is owned by each individual apartment and a generous locker is assigned to each suite. The garage is equipped with a car wash bay for do-it-yourself car owners.The neighbourhood is fast becoming one of the most desirable in the area. With the addition of the Powell Street Lofts and The Glasgow, the LakeLander finds itself in exclusive company! Residents can walk to the shops in the Glebe, to the restaurants along Preston Street and even to Dow's Lake and the Canal.
