Featured Community – Kemptville

What a wonderful community to raise a family and a great place to call home. This Town is extremely community minded and they truly look after each other. The town boasts an abundance of nature trails, waterfront parks, fabulous sports facilities, restaurants, shopping, excellent schools, a local hospital, churches, golf courses, Long-Term Care and retirement residences, hardware stores, a number of grocery stores and pharmacies, doctors’ offices and clinics, with ample room for many new business owners to set up shop and the big box stores usually found in major cities are also located in the town. A short 30 minute drive to the Ottawa International Airport or via Rail has this Town connected with the world.

In recent years Ottawans have been flocking to this bedroom community which started out as a small piece of land with a sawmill. Lyman Clothier purchased his 100 acres and built his mill, and the town’s development took flight.

Home to roughly 4,000 residents, Kemptville is located in the Municipality of North Grenville with a population of 17,000, on the south branch of the Rideau River about 50 kilometres south of Ottawa and 30 minutes from the US Border. Kemptville can be accessed from Highway 416, exiting at Leeds and Grenville Road 43. The rural features combined with its various amenities has made Kempville the best-kept secret – but the word is out now, making it a very popular destination for families.

Ottawa Real Estate Market Snapshot – September 2020

A continued increase in new listings and the demand for housing staying strong support the upward trajectory in the volume of properties sold. The new normal has made a change to our usual spring and fall market cycle that we typically see which will make it hard to predict if the momentum will continue.
