Carp

Overview

Located in Ottawa’s west end, Carp is a charming village that offers country living with modern conveniences. Known for its rural beauty, strong community spirit, and thriving local businesses, Carp is a favourite for those seeking a slower pace within 30 minutes of downtown Ottawa.

The heart of Carp features local favourites like Alice’s Village Café, Carp Custom Creamery, and the beloved Carp Farmers' Market — one of the largest in Eastern Ontario. The area also houses the Diefenbunker Museum, a Cold War-era bunker turned national historic site.

With a mix of century homes, estate properties, and newer developments, Carp attracts families, retirees, and professionals who want space, privacy, and a village vibe. Outdoor amenities include nearby Carp Ridge, walking trails, and golf at Irish Hills or Greensmere Golf Club.

Top-rated schools and an active community association help make Carp a vibrant yet peaceful place to call home.
