The nation's capital is one of the largest cities in Ontario and has much to offer.

Many real estate listings include historic and well-kept/renovated homes. Other areas offer a mixture of older and newer Ottawa homes for sale.

Life in Ottawa

Ottawa borders the great Ottawa River and is traversed by historic Rideau Canal. The capital is encircled by The Green Belt, an array of parks, nature trails, bogs, interpretation centres, scenic parkways, bike or jogging trails, and other year-round outdoor activities. Other parks and facilities promote a healthy lifestyle the entire year through. And getting around is easy thanks to the city's public transit system, which is ranked among the best in the country and is continually improving following considerable investments made on the city's behalf.

The political centre of Canada is a major hub for high technology, which is almost as important of an economic motor as tourism. Jobs can be found in a great variety of domains: administration, education, healthcare, and business. Recreation activities are also varied and plentiful, allowing you to live life the way you've always imagined it.

If a healthy and eco-friendly lifestyle is what you want, public transit offers all the "park & ride" opportunities you need! And of course, because the capital is located on several waterways, there is a good supply of waterfront properties and countless Ottawa homes and condos with views of the bodies of water and the Gatineau Hills.
