Owen Sound Real Estate and Homes for Sale
As a real estate agent who specializes in Owen Sound, let me be your guide to what Owen Sound Ontario has to offer as a neighbourhood to finding homes for sale in the area.
“MY TOWN” – Owen Sound, Ontario is located on an inlet from Georgian Bay with the Pottawatomi & Sydenham Rivers flowing to the Harbour. Owen Sound is a really a small city with a population of approximately twenty-two thousand. To me “my town” seems to suit the community feeling rather than “my city”. This is a great place to live and I’d like you to consider making it your home. Take a look at the Real Estate for sale in Owen Sound and call me to help you choose a place to own.

Did you know that the Disney movie “One Magic Christmas” used Owen Sound as one of its filming locations? AND just so you don’t get the idea we have always been a passive place, I will recount that historically Owen Sound was a roaring seaport and a rowdy town known as “Corkscrew City” “Chicago of the North” “Little Liverpool”. Four churches marked “Salvation Corners” just a block away from ”Damnation Corners” that had a tavern on all four. Owen Sound is one of the cities in the OHL (Ontario Hockey League) and we are very proud of our Owen Sound Attack. Now a days we pump up adrenaline at the Attack hockey games, as well as at lacrosse, soccer, baseball & even little league sports.
Owen Sound temperatures are moderated by Lake Huron thirty minutes west and Georgian Bay around us putting us right in the middle of the “Snow Belt”. Yes, this is an area of usually abundant snowfalls that delight skiers & snow mobilers. Whether you are enjoy things like eating, golfing, sailing, boating, hiking, cycling, cross country skiing, fishing or you just want a great place to live. Owen Sound’s slogan “Owen Sound where you want to live” is worth checking out.
