Why Orleans Bungalows

What Makes These Homes So Popular

Orleans bungalows attract a wide range of buyers, from downsizers looking to simplify to families wanting everything on one level.

Single-Level Living

No stairs means accessible, easy day-to-day living. Great for downsizers, those with mobility needs, or anyone who simply wants a more manageable home layout.

Finished Basement Potential

Many Orleans bungalows come with fully finished lower levels, effectively doubling your living space with rec rooms, extra bedrooms, or home offices.

Larger Lots

Older Orleans bungalow neighbourhoods often sit on wider lots than newer infill builds, giving you more outdoor space, privacy, and room to grow.

Established Community

Orleans is a mature, family-oriented part of Ottawa with great schools, parks, transit access, and a strong sense of neighbourhood. It's been voted one of the best places to live in the city for good reason.

Close to Everything

Quick access to the LRT, Highway 174, Place d'Orleans, Montfort Hospital, and the Ottawa River. Commuting downtown or east to Rockland is straightforward from almost anywhere in Orleans.

Strong Long-Term Value

Bungalows hold their value well in Ottawa. Demand consistently outpaces supply, making them a sound choice whether you're buying a home to live in or as a long-term investment.

Where the Bungalows Are

Best Orleans Neighbourhoods for Bungalows

Bungalow supply is not spread evenly across Orleans. It concentrates in the communities built during the decades when single-level homes were standard. Here is where to look first.

Bungalows and family homes on an established street in Queenswood Heights, Orleans Ottawa Deepest Supply

Queenswood Heights

Developed largely from the 1970s onward, during the era when bungalows were the standard build. It has noticeably more single-level homes than newer parts of Orleans, and sits close to Place d'Orleans and the Innes Road corridor.

Queenswood Heights homes for sale → Spacious homes on large mature lots in Chapel Hill, Orleans Ottawa Largest Lots

Chapel Hill

Bungalows here sit on some of the widest, deepest lots in Orleans, with the Greenbelt forming the western edge. A strong pick if outdoor space and mature trees matter as much as the floor plan.

Chapel Hill homes for sale → Newly built homes and bungalows in Trailsedge, Orleans Ottawa New Construction

Trailsedge

The rare place to find a genuinely new bungalow in Orleans. This Richcraft community built between 2016 and 2024 includes bungalow models, which is unusual now that most builders have shifted to two-storey and townhome construction.

Trailsedge homes for sale → Mature tree-canopied street of established homes in Convent Glen, Orleans Ottawa Best Entry Price

Convent Glen

One of the original Orleans communities, built through the 1970s and 1980s. Older housing stock means budgeting for updates, but it also means the most accessible entry pricing for a single-level home in the district.

Convent Glen homes for sale → Mature tree-lined street of family homes in Fallingbrook, Orleans Ottawa Widest Mix

Fallingbrook

Fallingbrook carries every housing type in Orleans, bungalows included, across a broad price range. Worth watching if you want flexibility on format while staying in one community.

Fallingbrook homes for sale → Homes backing onto the Mer Bleue Conservation Area in Bradley Estates, Orleans Ottawa Backs Onto Nature

Bradley Estates

This Valecraft community includes bungalows alongside its two-storey homes, and backs directly onto the Mer Bleue Conservation Area. Roughly 20 minutes to downtown, which is quicker than much of Orleans.

About Orleans

A Community Built Around Family Life

Orleans has grown significantly over the past few decades, and for good reason. Located in the east end of Ottawa, it offers that suburban feel people want while keeping you well-connected to the city. Bungalows in particular are woven throughout the older pockets of Orleans, especially Queenswood Heights, Chapel Hill and Convent Glen.

Many of these homes were built between the 1960s and early 2000s, which means solid construction, mature trees, and neighbourhoods where people actually know each other. If you're thinking about Orleans real estate more broadly, bungalows represent some of the best value in the area.

Buyers relocating from other parts of the country are often surprised by how much they get in Orleans compared to other major Canadian cities. For a breakdown of how the ten Orleans communities differ, read the Orleans sub-communities guide.

Planning to Downsize?

A large share of Orleans bungalow buyers are downsizing from a larger two-storey home, often in the same community. If that is your situation, the sequencing matters as much as the search: whether to buy or sell first, how to time the two closings, and what to do with decades of accumulated belongings.

My downsizing guide for Ottawa walks through that process. Romana on our team also specializes in staging, which tends to matter more when selling an older family home than a newer one.

Common Questions

Bungalows in Orleans — FAQ

A few of the questions buyers ask most often when shopping for a bungalow in Orleans.

Bungalow prices in Orleans generally range from the mid-$500,000s to over $900,000, depending on size, condition, lot, and location within the community. Newer builds in Trailsedge or larger homes in Notting Hill tend to sit at the higher end. Entry-level options in older pockets like Convent Glen can be more accessible.
Queenswood Heights has the deepest bungalow supply in Orleans. Developed largely from the 1970s onward, it was built during a period when single-level homes were common, and it has noticeably more of them than newer communities where two-storey builds dominate. Chapel Hill and Convent Glen also carry meaningful bungalow inventory.
Orleans bungalows appeal to downsizers, retirees, and buyers who want single-level convenience without giving up space. Many have finished basements that effectively double the liveable area, and they often sit on larger lots than newer two-storey builds. The community itself, with its parks, transit, and amenities, adds to the appeal.
Yes, though supply is limited. Trailsedge, the Richcraft community built between 2016 and 2024, includes bungalow models alongside its detached homes and townhomes, which is unusual for newer construction. Ottawa builders have generally shifted toward two-storey and townhome builds, which is exactly why existing bungalows hold their value.
Well-priced bungalows in Orleans typically sell within two to four weeks. Ottawa is currently in a balanced market, so buyers have more breathing room than during the peak frenzy years, but desirable bungalows — especially those with finished basements and updated kitchens — still attract solid interest and sometimes competing offers.
Orleans has shown steady price appreciation over the long term. Bungalows tend to hold value well because demand consistently outpaces supply. A bungalow with a separate entrance to a finished lower level can also generate rental income, which adds flexibility. For a broader view, check out the Ottawa market updates.
