Morgan's Grant Real Estate

By Bo Yu, Broker, Right at Home Realty, Brokerage

Ask anyone who works in the Kanata tech park about Morgan's Grant and you'll hear the same thing: short commute, good schools, and streets that back onto real trails rather than a strip of grass.

Here's the practical rundown — schools, getting to work, parks, shopping, and what homes tend to sell for, before you decide whether to go see one.

Prices, rates, and program rules change often. Treat the figures here as general guidance, not advice for your specific situation. Ask Bo for current OREB comparables, and confirm program eligibility with your lender or lawyer.

Community overview

Morgan's Grant sits at the north end of Kanata, built out with an established street layout, generous parks, and mostly detached and townhome inventory, with condos in a few pockets. Homes closer to the trails and top schools tend to command a premium; pricing otherwise follows lot size and age of build.

Schools in Morgan's Grant

The area is served by OCDSB, OCSB, CEPEO, and CECCE schools, and school quality is a big part of why people move here. Catchments do shift, though, so confirm the assigned elementary and secondary schools for the specific address before making an offer.

Transportation & commute

Being minutes from the Kanata tech park is the whole draw for a lot of buyers — no need for the 417 if that's where you're headed. For downtown, expect roughly 15 to 35 minutes outside peak hours via the nearest arterial and Highway 417, with OC Transpo bus routes covering transit riders.

Parks & recreation

Morgan's Grant is known for its trail network and larger parks, more so than a lot of comparable Kanata communities — a real selling point if you want to walk or bike rather than drive to green space. NCC land and the Ottawa River are a short drive from most streets here.

Shopping & amenities

Everyday shopping — groceries, pharmacy, casual dining — is close by on the nearest commercial strip. Bigger retail centres are a short drive into the rest of Kanata.

Lifestyle

It's a family-oriented community with a professional crowd, thanks to the tech park proximity. Weekends lean toward trails and parks; weekdays are quiet during the day and busier after 5pm as commuters get home.

Real estate market

Resale demand stays consistent here, driven partly by tech workers who want the short commute. Detached and townhome inventory both move steadily, with new construction in nearby Kanata communities occasionally shaping resale pricing.

Average home prices

Detached homes in Morgan's Grant tend to trade in line with the broader north Kanata market per recent Ottawa Real Estate Board data, with townhomes priced below and any condo inventory below that. I'll pull live comps for your street and housing type.

Who should live in Morgan's Grant

Morgan's Grant suits buyers who want strong schools and a short commute to the tech park, with trail access as a bonus — think families and working professionals more than anything else, though the pocket also attracts downsizers who value the walkability.
