The Lifestyle: Active, Connected, and Community-Centric

Living in The Glebe and its surrounding areas is about embracing a walkable, active, and deeply connected lifestyle. It's a community where neighbours know each other and local businesses are cherished. Picture yourself strolling to the farmers' market at Lansdowne on a Sunday morning, catching a Redblacks game on a summer evening, or skating to work along the Rideau Canal Skateway in the winter. This area is perfect for those who crave a "village in the city" atmosphere without sacrificing access to the best urban amenities.

The Glebe & Ottawa East Real Estate: A Market Overview

The real estate in this district is rich with character and diversity.

    There is something a little storybook about 21 Reid Ave. Maybe it is the gate you pass through to reach the yard, or the hedge that wraps this private corner lot, but this semi-detached on a quiet street in the Civic Hospital neighbourhood feels like a world of its own. And yet, you are minutes from everything. This is one of Ottawa's most loved pockets for a reason. Stroll to Wellington West and Little Italy for coffee, dinner and shopping, bike the paths at Dow's Lake and the Experimental Farm, and get downtown in minutes. Inside, the whole home has been freshly painted and the hardwood on both levels just refinished, so the heavy lifting is done. The living room centres on a gas fireplace, with a separate dining room made for real dinner parties. Double doors open to the deck, stamped concrete patio and that wonderful private yard, perfect for hosting or a quiet glass of wine behind the hedge. The kitchen has been freshened up and is completely ready to use while you plan a future renovation. In the meantime, enjoy the charm: the retro tile floor and large window are genuinely cool, and the matching tile in the front entry makes a warm first impression. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are a really good size, especially for a home of this era, and the updated 4-piece bathroom keeps its vintage character. The finished lower level adds a rec room with a second gas fireplace, a full bathroom, a laundry room, and a bonus room for an office, home gym or storage. A separate driveway and detached single garage complete the package. The fairy tale feeling is optional. The gate is real. More details
