History
Westboro, also referred to as Westboro Village, has evolved into one of Ottawa’s most vibrant communities! Formerly the site of Nepean City Hall, Westboro experienced urban revitalization and redevelopment, transforming into a trendy urban hub while preserving its historical charm.
Neighbourhood(s)
Westboro Village comprises several smaller residential areas, including Highland Park, Hampton Park, Westboro, and McKellar Park. Its tree-lined streets feature a mix of early 20th-century and post-war homes, contributing to a cozy, village-like ambiance. Residents cherish the community’s close-knit feel, with wide lots, an absence of roadside curbs, and a preference for older, character homes.
Infrastructure
Situated approximately six kilometers west of Parliament Hill and close to the Ottawa River, Westboro boasts excellent transportation links. Residents enjoy easy access to major roads, parkways, and highways, facilitating a quick commute to downtown Ottawa. The area is serviced by the OC Transpo bus system, with plans for the future Confederation O-Train to pass through Westboro, enhancing connectivity to surrounding suburbs. Additionally, the community offers abundant amenities such as parks, schools, libraries, and recreational facilities like tennis courts, skating rinks, and play structures.
Real Estate Options
Westboro offers a diverse mix of housing types, from charming older homes to modern condominium developments. The real estate market includes single-family homes, semi-detached houses, and newer condos along Richmond Road. Residents appreciate the unique architectural styles and larger lots prevalent in the area. While newer homes may feature double-car garages, older homes remain highly sought after for their character and proximity to amenities.
Housing Prices
The housing market in Westboro reflects its diversity, with a range of home values catering to different budgets. As of fall 2015, the average list price for homes in the greater Westboro area was approximately $630,000, with a significant number of more modestly priced homes available. Newer semi-detached homes commanded an average price of $860,000, while newer detached homes averaged around $1,100,000. Condominium options include both older and newer developments, with average prices around $340,000 for a two-bedroom, two-bathroom unit.
