Community Description

Chartwell Duke of Devonshire Retirement Residence is a luxurious independent and assisted living seniors’ community in Ottawa located in the desirable Island Park/Civic Hospital neighbourhood. Our upscale retirement home is steeped in tradition and features refined décor, state-of-the-art amenities, secure underground parking and exceptional customer service. With picturesque views of the Experimental Farm and Gatineau Hills, our residence is within walking distance of a host of local amenities, including The Ottawa Hospital, Parkdale Market, Westgate Shopping Centre and the culinary delights of Preston Street’s Little Italy. Within the home, residents partake in an engaging and entertaining calendar of activities at their leisure, with some programs taking place on-site in modern amenities like our health club, outdoor patio and large-screen theatre with custom seating. Day trips are also often scheduled, with residents being transported in our comfortable private bus. From fitness classes and cocktail socials to speaker series featuring professors, authors and politicians, there’s always something entertaining and insightful going on in our home. In fact, when residents aren’t in our beauty salon, Duke of Devonshire Spa, library or fireside piano lounge, you may find them savouring a delicious meal prepared by our Executive Chef in the dining room, where they can socialize with friends over a glass of wine and take in scenic views of Ottawa.

Offering independent supportive living suites that vary in size and style—from spacious studios to elegant one-bedrooms to our grand penthouse suites, some featuring two bedrooms and outdoor terraces—we can accommodate the needs and preferences of today’s seniors. All of our suites include fine finishes that are reflective of the residence’s quiet elegance, including kitchenettes with granite counter tops and wet bars, climate-controlled thermostats and secure keyless entry. On top of our beautiful accommodations, our professional and dedicated team are there to help you lead the relaxing, private and independent retirement lifestyle you desire, with staff on hand 24 hours a day and personalized care and wellness plans available to those individuals who require discreet assistance with activities of daily living.
