About Stittsville

Stittsville combines the charm of a historic village with the amenities of a modern Ottawa suburb. The community's Main Street retains its small-town character with local businesses and restaurants, while surrounding neighbourhoods offer contemporary suburban living.

The area's construction landscape reflects this duality. The village core contains older homes that may require renovation and updating, while expanding developments like Fernbank Crossing and Jackson Trails feature new construction with modern standards.

Stittsville's popularity with families has driven rapid growth, creating consistent demand for both new construction contractors and renovation specialists. The community's strong identity means many residents invest in improving their homes rather than relocating.

Location & Boundaries

Stittsville is located southwest of Kanata, bounded by Kanata West to the north, Fernbank lands to the east and south, and rural areas including the hamlet of Munster to the west. The historic village core along Main Street anchors the community, with newer developments expanding outward.
