Notting Gate Real Estate
By Bo Yu, Broker, Right at Home Realty, Brokerage
North of Innes Road, Notting Gate is one of those pockets that doesn't get much attention outside of central Orléans, which is exactly what draws people to it.
This page runs through the practical stuff — schools, transit, parks, shopping, and price ranges — so you know what to expect before you book a showing.
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
Notting Gate sits in central Orléans, with a mostly residential street layout, a handful of neighbourhood parks, and a housing mix of detached homes and townhomes. Prices move with lot size, age of build, and how close a given street is to schools and transit — there's no single number that covers the whole pocket.
Schools in Notting Gate
OCDSB, OCSB, CEPEO, and CECCE all have schools serving this area, but catchment boundaries aren't fixed forever. Get the specific elementary and secondary schools confirmed for the address before you write an offer.
Transportation & commute
Driving downtown from Notting Gate usually runs 15 to 35 minutes outside rush hour, via the nearest arterial and onto the 417. OC Transpo bus service and nearby LRT connections cover transit commuters. Worth double-checking the actual route from the street you're considering.
Parks & recreation
There are neighbourhood parks, schoolyards, and connecting paths scattered through Notting Gate, in keeping with how this part of Ottawa was laid out. Bigger greenspace and the Ottawa River are a short drive from most addresses here.
Shopping & amenities
Groceries, pharmacy, a few restaurants, and a gym are all covered close by. For anything bigger, plan a short drive to nearby Orléans retail.
Lifestyle
It's quiet — mostly families and long-term residents, with parks and schools doing most of the heavy lifting on weekends. Drive through at a couple different times of day before deciding it's for you.
Real estate market
Resale here moves at a steady, unhurried pace. Detached homes and townhomes make up most of what changes hands, and new construction nearby can nudge resale values from year to year.
Average home prices
Detached homes in Notting Gate tend to trade close to the broader central-Orléans market, per recent Ottawa Real Estate Board figures, with townhomes priced a step below. Ask me for live comps once you know the street and housing type you want.
Who should live in Notting Gate
Notting Gate fits buyers after a quieter central-Orléans address with schools and transit already in place — works well for families and first-time buyers, and downsizers looking for something low-key.
