Buttery sunlight filtering in through large windows; conversation shared over fresh cups of coffee; the soft notes of a piano; flashes of green from mature trees in the central courtyard—there’s something about the atmosphere at Chartwell Kanata Retirement Residence that puts everyone at ease as soon as they walk through the doors.

Our retirement community exemplifies country living charm, boasting a forested location along a quiet residential street—only steps away from Shirley’s Brook—fresh and traditional décor, and a friendly atmosphere. Here, you can enjoy the simple things in life: a hot, home-cooked meal; a themed social event alongside friends; or a serene stroll in the beautiful outdoors.

Imagine life in an traditional country home, with an ambience that can be described as relaxed, yet alive with activity and camaraderie. Our solarium and central courtyard radiate a welcoming, countryside feel, as do the people who live and work in our tight-knit residence. Our skilled team is friendly and caring, and aim to please with services like three tempting meals a day (including our signature cookies!), social and leisure activities like our very popular themed events, housekeeping and a variety of personal support services. In fact, whether you choose one of our spacious and bright studios or instead opt for a one-bedroom suite, our independent supportive living services ensure your individual needs are taken care of and your peace of mind is ensured.

If you’re looking for a retirement residence that is beautiful and bright, welcoming and friendly, and features a peaceful country locale, Chartwell Kanata may be exactly the home for you.
