Wallis House Ottawa: Uncover the Unique Allure of Rare Downtown Lofts


Welcome to Wallis House in Ottawa, featuring highly sought-after lofts in the heart of Lower Town/ Sandy Hill. Step inside this historical gem, where the Wallis House lofts present a unique and exceptional opportunity to become a part of Ottawa's captivating past. Built in 1873 and artfully converted into condominiums in 1996, this remarkable building boasts a scarce collection of "hard" lofts, radiating distinctive character and charm that sets it apart from the rest.


Wallis House holds a captivating history that weaves through the fabric of Ottawa's past. Originally constructed to house the Carleton County Protestant General Hospital in 1876, the building served as a vital healthcare institution until 1924 when it merged with others to create the Ottawa Civic Hospital. During World War II, it was used as housing for members of the Women's Royal Canadian Naval Service. After the war, it faced various challenges, including periods of abandonment and debates over its fate. Finally, in 1994, L.A. Sandy Smallwood, a heritage restorer, acquired the building, leading to its transformation into 47 high-end condominiums. This remarkable revitalization not only preserved its historical significance but also marked the beginning of a real estate boom in Ottawa. 


From the moment you set foot into Wallis House lofts, the ambiance of history and craftsmanship envelops you. Gaze at the extensive exposed brick walls and 14-foot ceilings that elevate the interiors, giving an unrivaled sense of space and grandeur that few modern condos can match.


Through the oversized windows, daylight streams in to embrace the living spaces, infusing every corner with warmth and vibrancy. The open concept floor plan seamlessly connects each area, creating a harmonious setting for relaxation and entertaining alike.
