Manotick real estate
Manotick is a historic village on the Rideau River in the south end of Ottawa. I help buyers and sellers in the village and the rural area around it.
Living in Manotick
Manotick is a village on the Rideau River in the rural south part of the City of Ottawa, just south of Barrhaven and Riverside South and about 25 km from downtown. It was founded by Moss Kent Dickinson in the 1860s, was part of Rideau Township and has been part of the City of Ottawa since 2001. The 2021 Census counted about 5,300 people in the village.
The heart of the village is Watson's Mill, a stone grist mill from 1860 that still operates as a working museum, and nearby Dickinson House. The village core has shops, restaurants and services, and the river and the Rideau Canal shape much of daily life, with boating in summer and riverside walks year round.
Around the village you find estate homes, older village houses, waterfront properties and rural lots. Manotick appeals to buyers who want a village setting with Barrhaven's shopping close by.
Buying a home in Manotick
Manotick homes vary widely, from village houses to waterfront and estate properties, so each one needs a careful look. Depending on the address, a property may use municipal services or a private well and septic system, and waterfront homes need questions about the shoreline and any floodplain rules. I help you get these answers before your offer is firm.
Listings can be limited, so I set up alerts and share recent comparable sales so you can move quickly and with confidence.
Selling your home in Manotick
Unique homes need careful pricing. My written market analysis compares your home with the most relevant sales in Manotick and nearby rural areas, and explains the adjustments for lot, water frontage and updates.
I market Manotick homes to buyers already looking in the village and to buyers in Barrhaven, Riverside South and across Ottawa who want more space.
Getting around
Manotick connects north to Barrhaven and Riverside South, and the Vimy Memorial Bridge crosses the Rideau River between them. Highway 416 is to the west. Your drive depends on where you are going and when, so test it at rush hour.
Who I help in Manotick
I help families looking for a village setting, buyers wanting a rural or waterfront property, and long-time owners selling a village or estate home.
Questions about Manotick
What should I know about buying on the river in Manotick?

It depends on the address. Some properties are on municipal services and others use a private well and septic. We confirm this for each home and plan inspections to match.

Yes. Manotick was part of Rideau Township and has been part of the City of Ottawa since 2001.

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! )
