Who Lives Here

Prestigious, peaceful, and perfectly located.

Kortright Hills is one of Guelph’s most established and sought-after family neighbourhoods. Developed primarily in the 1980s and 90s, it has the maturity of a well-settled community — tree-lined streets, large lots, quality-built homes — while remaining close to every convenience the city offers.

What sets Kortright Hills apart is the combination of natural access and suburban convenience. Preservation Park and the Quail Creek trail network are practically at your doorstep. The Guelph YMCA is nearby. The 401 is minutes away for commuters. And Kortright Hills Public School has one of the strongest reputations in the city — families specifically move here for it.

What Makes It Special

Life in Kortright Hills.

Conservation forest trails
Preservation Park & Trail Network
Preservation Park sits right at the edge of the neighbourhood — forested trails, natural conservation land, and quiet walking routes connected to the wider Quail Creek trail system. Nature isn’t a weekend drive from here. It’s outside your door.
School family neighbourhood
Kortright Hills Public School
One of the most well-regarded public schools in Guelph. Families specifically relocate to this neighbourhood for the school — and that demand shows in the property values and the consistency of the buyer pool.
Executive family home
Established Executive Homes
The 80s and 90s builds in Kortright Hills have been consistently well-maintained and updated over the decades. Tree-lined streets, large private lots, and the kind of neighbourhood quiet that families deliberately seek out.
Minutes to the 401
GTA commuters consistently rank Kortright Hills as one of Guelph’s best-located neighbourhoods. Fast access to the 401 east to KW or west toward Mississauga — without living in the industrial corridor.
Guelph YMCA Nearby
The Guelph YMCA-YWCA is close to the neighbourhood — a significant draw for active families who want fitness, swimming, and community programs within easy reach of home.
Consistent Demand
Kortright Hills has never gone out of fashion. The school, the trails, the 401 access, and the community feel create permanent, reliable demand that keeps values strong year over year.

Sean’s Take
“Kortright Hills is the neighbourhood families move to when they’ve done the research and made a deliberate choice. The school, the trails, the 401 access — it all adds up to a place that checks every box without having to compromise on any of them.”

The trail access to Preservation Park is something people underestimate until they live here — it genuinely changes your daily life to have that kind of natural space immediately outside your door. Combined with one of the city’s best public schools and a commuter-friendly location, Kortright Hills has a permanent and very loyal buyer base. Values here are consistent and resilient for good reason.
