Clarence Creek real estate
Clarence Creek offers village living a short drive from Rockland. I help buyers find the right home here and help owners sell with a written plan.
Living in Clarence Creek
Clarence Creek is one of the communities that make up the City of Clarence-Rockland, alongside Rockland, Bourget, Hammond, Clarence, Cheney and Saint-Pascal-Baylon. It sits south and east of Rockland in a mostly rural setting, with a village core, a parish church at its heart and farmland around it.
People choose Clarence Creek for a quieter pace. Lots tend to be bigger than in town, streets are calmer, and there is a close-knit, largely French-speaking community feel. At the same time, Rockland's shops, grocery stores and services are a short drive away, so you are not giving up convenience to get more space.
Homes here include village houses on established streets, newer homes on larger lots and rural properties with more land. If you have been looking for a yard for the kids, room for a garage or workshop, or simply more breathing room, Clarence Creek is worth a look.
Buying a home in Clarence Creek
Buying in a village or rural area comes with a few extra questions. Some properties are on municipal services and some rely on a private well and septic system, so we build the right inspections and water tests into your offer when needed. I also look closely at lot size, zoning, outbuildings and any work done on the home over the years.
There are usually fewer listings at any one time than in Rockland, so it helps to be ready. I set up alerts for Clarence Creek and nearby areas, share recent comparable sales so you know what is fair, and help you write an offer that is strong without overpaying.
Selling your home in Clarence Creek
Village and rural homes are not all priced the same way. Land, outbuildings, services and updates can move value a lot, and there may be only a handful of truly comparable sales. My written market analysis explains which sales I used and why, so the price makes sense to you before we list.
I market Clarence Creek homes to buyers already looking in Clarence-Rockland and to people in Orléans and Ottawa who want more space. We plan the photos, the description and the showing schedule together, and I keep you updated after every showing.
Getting around
Most residents drive. County roads link Clarence Creek to Rockland, and from Rockland you can head west on Highway 174 or County Road 17 toward Orléans and Ottawa. Your commute depends on your route and the time of day, so I suggest test driving it at the hours you would actually travel.
Who I help in Clarence Creek
I help families moving out of the city for more room, local buyers moving up to a bigger lot, and long-time owners who are ready to downsize closer to town. I am based nearby in Rockland, so I can be at your door quickly when you need me.
Questions about Clarence Creek
Is Clarence Creek part of Rockland?
Clarence Creek is its own village, but it is part of the same municipality, the City of Clarence-Rockland. Municipal services and the city offices are shared with Rockland.
What should I check before buying a rural home near Clarence Creek?
Confirm whether the home is on municipal services or a well and septic system. If it uses a well, plan water tests; for septic, a septic inspection. Also check the lot lines, any outbuildings and internet options. I help you build these into your offer conditions.
How long does it take to sell a home in Clarence Creek?
It depends on the price, the condition of the home and the time of year. I will show you how long similar homes took to sell recently, so you can plan your move with real numbers.

Real reviews from my Google Business Profile, quoted word for word.
I’m convinced this is the best real estate agent in Ottawa!! Paul is not only gonna find you a home but he will become your friend as well. He’s so honest, determined, positive and willing to go above and beyond for his customers. He’s also always available and always picks up his phone. After finding his flyer on our door one day, we gave him a call then hired him to sell our house and find us a new one. The process was so flawless and stress free we couldn’t have asked for better. I’m 100% hiring him again next time i wanna move. I can’t recommend him enough!!

As first time home buyers we are so fortunate to have been paired with Paul, his sound guidance, responsiveness and expertise helped us land the home of our dreams in a difficult market. We would have sat and waited too long to put in an offer had we not followed his advice. We had a lot of unknowns and each time one popped up Paul found answers SUPER quickly- even our insurance agent was impressed by his responsiveness. He did an amazing job helping us source reliable experts for the many inspections we had and was very impressive doing so on a short time frame. We are so grateful for all of Paul’s hard work, dedication, and negotiation skills. You can tell he's a people's person who loves what he does and is energized by the joy of helping people. Would recommend and would trust Paul again :) (He additionally got us some house warming gifts- included baby chickens! )
