Carleton Place Real Estate

Rising from the banks of the Mississippi River and adjacent to Mississippi Lake, the Town of Carleton Place in Lanark County, Ontario is a waterfront community brimming with charm and vitality. Located a mere half hour's drive from downtown Ottawa, the town has become one of the region's most desirable places to live and Carleton Place real estate has subsequently risen in value.

Carleton Place has been enjoying steady growth over the past few years, though it has retained its small town feel and is home to a population just under 10,000 (as of 2006). Originally a mill town, Carleton Place today is a vibrant mix of serene residential neighbourhoods, a lively historical downtown core, and several commercial and office spaces. It has managed to preserve many of its 19th century homes and buildings and you will still find quite a few historical homes in the Carleton Place real estate market.

The Carleton Place real estate market has evolved and diversified just as the population has grown and now offers an assorted selection of Carleton Place homes suitable for all kinds of tastes and budgets.
