Best Ottawa Neighbourhood to Build a Custom Home

Ottawa is a diverse city and there are so many unique areas to call home. Whether you want to live in family-friendly Alta Vista or crave the wide open spaces of Carp, the best Ottawa neighbourhood to build your custom home is the one that matches your lifestyle and fits your needs.

Close to Downtown
If you work downtown and don’t want a long commute—there are a number of neighbourhoods you’ll want to consider including Sandy Hill, the Golden Triangle or even the Glebe. Dow’s Lake and Old Ottawa South are a bit further, but both are filled with charm and history.

If you’re looking for a compromise between downtown and the suburbs, the best Ottawa neighbourhood might be New Edinburgh, Rockcliffe Park or even Westboro. These areas are close enough to downtown that the commute is extremely manageable, but allow for more space and a quieter way of life.

Suburbs
Kanata has been steadily growing and is a popular place for new builds—as is Nepean, Barrhaven and Stittsville. If you don’t travel downtown often and prefer the community that comes from the suburbs, one of these neighbourhoods might be best for your new Ottawa custom home.

Country Living
Greely, Manotick, Carp or Cumberland are the best Ottawa neighbourhoods for people that want to leave the city life behind and enjoy spacious lots surrounded by nature. Each has its own unique charm, but all retain that small-town feel.

The best Ottawa neighbourhood for your new custom home is the one that fits your specific needs.
