Around the Block
South Keys:

A south end community built for convenience.

South Keys grew through the 1980s and 1990s around one of the largest retail centres in the south of Ottawa, with rapid transit woven directly into the community. House hunters comparing South Keys homes for sale will find practical layouts at approachable prices, and South Keys homes for rent attract commuters who value the transit connections.


What to Expect:

Practical housing with errands and transit steps away.

Expect townhomes, stacked condominiums, and detached houses on compact, family friendly streets. The shopping centre anchors daily life with groceries, big box retail, restaurants, and a cinema all in one place.


The Lifestyle:

City convenience balanced by creekside green space.

The Sawmill Creek pathway system offers walking and cycling routes through the community, while nearby Conroy Pit and the Greenbelt add bigger outdoor escapes. Transit stations connect residents across the city without a car.

Unexpected Appeal:

A transit hub hiding a green corridor.

For a district known for shopping and buses, South Keys surprises with the natural ribbon of Sawmill Creek running through it. Herons, wildflowers, and shaded paths sit minutes from the checkout lines.



The Market:

Approachable pricing in a high demand commuter corridor.

The market leans toward townhomes and condominiums with a healthy supply of detached houses, keeping entry prices among the most reasonable in urban Ottawa. Transit access and airport proximity support steady demand from buyers and renters alike.


You'll Fall In Love With:

The everyday ease of having everything close.

Residents love finishing errands in one stop, catching rapid transit downtown, and reaching the airport in ten minutes. South Keys makes busy lives simpler, and that convenience never stops paying off.
