Municipality of
Port Hope

Ideally situated on Lake Ontario, just one hour east of the Greater Toronto Area, the picturesque town of Port Hope boasts more than 270 designated heritage buildings, and a downtown celebrated for being the “best-preserved 19th-century streetscape in Ontario.”

It’s also home to attractions like the celebrated Cameco Capitol Arts Centre (Canada’s last surviving, fully restored “atmospheric theatre”) and popular events like the All-Canadian Jazz Festival, the ACO House Tour, the larger-than-life “Estival” celebration, and the Float Your Fanny Down the Ganny river race.

But Port Hope real estate stands out for much more than its architecture and its history. With all the charm and friendliness of a small town, and all the vibrancy and sophistication of a modern community, Port Hope offers a rare and appealing way of life to those who call it home.

Port Hope’s outlying rural communities (once known as “Hope Township”) also provide a unique living experience — the opportunity to embrace the many charms of the countryside while never being too far from the comforts, entertainments and amenities of town. This thriving community of 16,000 offers its residents an enviable lifestyle, and the best of all possible worlds.
