Nestled just south of downtown Ottawa, boasts a rich history that dates back to the 19th century. Originally farmland owned by the St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, the area was designated as “glebe lands” for the church’s support. Over time, it evolved into a bustling residential neighbourhood, retaining much of its historic charm. Strolling through the Glebe, you can find beautiful heritage homes that tell the story of its storied past.
The Glebe, Dows Lake, and part of West Centretown commonly referred to as “The Glebe Anex” are the three primary neighbourhoods defined by the Ottawa Real Estate Board (OREB) that make up the neighbourhood. Surrounded by the Rideau Canal and Dows Lake with Highway-417 on the north end, the Glebe is uniquely situated in old Ottawa’s core. Known for its eclectic character, the neighbourhood is sought after by newcomers and long-time residents alike.

In terms of livability, the Glebe is truly unique and appeals to residents and visitors alike. Lansdowne Park is a major hub with restaurants, shopping, and TD Place, home to the Ottawa Redblacks and a common venue for concerts and festivals. For nature lovers, the Rideau Canal offers scenic pathways perfect for walking, cycling, or skating in the winter. And the heart of the Glebe, Bank Street, where you’ll find a mix of unique boutiques, cozy cafes, and vibrant restaurants.
Living in the Glebe means embracing a lifestyle that balances urban energy with a close-knit community feel. The neighbourhood exudes a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Weekends are often spent exploring the local market, enjoying outdoor events, or simply unwinding at a nearby cafe or park. It’s a place where you can enjoy the best of both worlds—a dynamic urban environment with a strong sense of community.
