Living in Manor Park, you understand the “secret”! It’s tranquility, community, a Village! Walking distance to The Pond & Beechwood Village, yet nestled in an area surrounded by mature trees. In 1899, The Ottawa Improvement Commission, now the NCC, wanted to create a new park. They parceled land, sold off & subsequently christened it “National Park“. Fast forward a few years, Manor Park became the very first postwar subdivision in Ottawa. In 1952, the very first MayFair was held by the Home school Association. The annual fair is alive & well to this day, among many other FUN events. MP is also home to one of Ottawa‘s best outdoor skating rinks. It remains a community where children still play in the street. A front yard neighbourhood! A RARE bonus, the home is 1 of ONLY 22 to back onto Anthony Vincent Park. The views from inside the home are unobstructed. MANY a successful garden party have been held. BBQ’s to Badminton. Canada Day celebrations to outdoor Covid fires with friends. (id:2493)
