Owen Sound, Ontario
Where Is Owen Sound?
Owen Sound, Ontario lies approximately two hours northwest of Toronto and is a central hub for all destinations in Grey and Bruce counties. Located approximately 30 minutes from Blue Mountain, one of Ontario’s most popular skiing and snowboarding destinations. Owen Sound and the surrounding area is warmly called home by over 30,000 people living at the base of Georgian Bay, where the Sydenham River and Potawatomi River converge. In the summer months you will find Owen Sound to be a thriving city in close proximity to Sauble Beach, a very popular destination for both local traffic and tourists alike, as well as many smaller towns with lots of activities and venues for recreation and relaxation. Owen Sound serves as a meeting point of four of Ontario’s provincial highways: Highway 6&10 from the south, Highway 26 from the east, and Highway 21 from the west.
Being established in 1851, Owen Sound includes many different types and styles of homes for sale. A prospective buyer will find century homes with original hardwood flooring and crown mouldings, intimate war-time houses suitable for retirement living or small families, split level bungalows, updated retro houses and a more modern flare of newly built houses in suburbs throughout the town.
Nature, Outdoors, and Activity
Buying real estate in Owen Sound means you can spend your days doing things most people only dream of. In Owen Sound you can experience snowboarding and skiing, snowshoeing and hiking the Bruce Trail in the winter, the kilometers-long sand beach and waters of Sauble Beach and Port Eglin in the summer. You can live in some of Ontario’s most beautiful scenery if you invest in Owen Sound real estate. Owen Sound itself boasts a beautiful harbour, with many walking paths, trails, and parks to enjoy the extensive waterfront.
If you desire to escape the fast-paced city life with your own piece of land on which to build the home of your dreams, I can help you to find the perfect vacant lot or land for sale in Owen Sound. With both budget and luxury home builders in the area, incredible landscaping professionals and top-notch tradespeople, no size or complexity of home build is too great or small.
There are many homes for sale in Owen Sound and Grey Bruce areas, and with my extensive knowledge of the local area and my commitment to learning you and your likes and dislikes, I am confident that I will be able to find not just house that you like, but a place that you can call home.
