Brant County
A growing rural county with small-town charm, scenic countryside, and exceptional value — Brant County is attracting buyers seeking space and community just outside major urban centres.
About City
Brant County is one of Ontario's best-kept secrets — a sprawling rural county that wraps around the City of Brantford and encompasses a collection of charming communities including Paris, St. George, Burford, and South Dumfries. It offers the kind of lifestyle that's harder and harder to find in Southern Ontario: large lots, quiet streets, tight-knit communities, and stunning natural scenery along the Grand River corridor, all within a short drive of Hamilton, Kitchener, and the 403. With some of the province's most exciting projected population growth, Brant County is on the radar of investors and families alike who want to get ahead of the curve before prices catch up to its growing appeal.
