NEW! Find a home in Bridgewater

The housing rental and buying market is tricky to navigate throughout all of Nova Scotia right now. People from across Canada and around the world have a renewed appreciation for the quality and pace of life here in Nova Scotia and, in particular, on the South Shore. While we love that people can't wait to live, work, play, and thrive in and around Bridgewater, the popularity of our area can make finding your next home a bit of a challenge.

To help make the search for your next home here a little but easier, we've assembled a list of housing resources here that give you one-touch access to a number of listing platforms and local housing developers/landlords.

The content available through each of these links is external to the Town of Bridgewater. The Town of Bridgewater is not responsible for any discrepancies or the accuracy of the information contained therein. In your search for your next home, we encourage you to be careful, do your due diligence, view properties in person whenever possible, and ask for references for landlords/owners.
