Buy, Sell or Live in Côte-d'Azur

In the Gatineau sector (the former city), around Parc Saint-Exupéry and near Rue Saint-Louis. Its streets are named after places on the French Riviera: Rue de Cannes, Rue de Monte-Carlo, Rue de Menton, Rue de Saint-Tropez. Downtown Ottawa is about 11 km away by road, and the drive time depends mostly on when you leave.

Côte-d'Azur is part of QPAREB's Gatineau sector. In Q3 2026, the median single-family price there was $464,900 (Centris data). Prices in Côte-d'Azur then depend on living area, property condition and lot size: unrenovated bungalows sit lower, modernized properties with garages higher. For a precise figure, I compare recent sales of homes like yours.

It depends on the homes you compare. Two official reference points: Ottawa's single-family benchmark price was $705,100 in September 2026 (Ottawa Real Estate Board, MLS® HPI). The median single-family price was $464,900 in Q3 2026 in QPAREB's Gatineau sector, which includes Côte-d'Azur. These two figures aren't the same measure (benchmark price vs. median) and don't cover the same period, so for a real comparison I put similar properties side by side. Property taxes and Quebec-specific costs should also be factored into your decision.

The Western Quebec School Board has elementary schools in the Gatineau and Hull sectors (Greater Gatineau Elementary, Pierre Elliott Trudeau Elementary). Its closest high schools are in Hull (Hadley Junior High, Philemon Wright High School). To find the school for your address, use the WQSB School Locator on westernquebec.ca. I can also point you to the right contacts during a property visit.

In Q3 2026, single-family homes in QPAREB's Gatineau sector, which includes Côte-d'Azur, sold in 35 days on average, compared with 34 days for the whole metropolitan area (Centris data). The actual timeline depends mostly on price and how well the home is prepared.
