Kinburn Real Estate & Houses for Sale

Kinburn is a fairly good neighbourhood to buy a home in for those who prefer a relaxed atmosphere. Kinburn is quiet overall, as there are low levels of noise from traffic - although there are still several noisier areas, especially closer to Highway 417 or the railway line. Parks are spread out sporadically, making them rather difficult to reach. Still, there are a few public green spaces nearby for residents to visit.

Transportation

Kinburn is very car friendly. It is especially convenient to park. It is very impractical for people travelling by foot to navigate Kinburn as almost no daily needs can be met without a vehicle. This part of Ottawa is also not very bike-friendly because the cycling network is quite poor, and there are a good number of hills.

Housing

Roughly 90% of the units in the neighbourhood are occupied by homeowners and 10% are occupied by renters. Single detached homes and townhouses are the predominant housing type in this part of Ottawa. Roughly 30% of properties in this part of the city were built before the 1960s, while most of the remaining buildings were constructed in the 1960s and the 1980s. This area also has quite a good variety of unit sizes - however this neighbourhood is notable for those looking for three bedroom homes.

Services

It is very rarely feasible for home buyers in Kinburn to travel to the nearest grocery store as pedestrians. As far as education is concerned, this part of Ottawa does not contain any high schools or primary schools. Furthermore, families may consider it very difficult for their children to get to daycares without a car.
