Doon Real Estate & Houses for Sale

Home buyers who prefer a slower-paced ambience will enjoy Doon. There are over 50 public green spaces close by for residents to unwind in, like Upper Canada Park and Tilt's Bush, which makes it very easy to reach them. This part of Kitchener is very quiet overall, as there are low levels of noise from traffic.

Transportation

The favoured method to navigate this area is usually a car. Many real estate listings are a reasonably short drive from the nearest highway, such as Highway 401, and it is very easy to park. In contrast, the transit access in Doon is rather limited. Thankfully, the community is linked by a few bus lines, and most houses are very close to a bus stop. This community is not very suitable for those who travel by walking as most daily needs are impractical to carry out without a car. In contrast, this community is bike-friendly since Doon has fairly good cycling infrastructure.

Housing

About 85% of the units in the community are occupied by homeowners whereas the rest are rented. The sizeable percentage of single detached homes in the housing stock of this area is an important part of its character. Most of the housing growth in this community has happened following the year 2000. This part of the city is primarily composed of three bedroom and four or more bedroom homes.

Services

Home buyers in Doon often need a vehicle to do their groceries. Nevertheless, reaching the nearest pharmacy and consequently some staple foods is typically easy. A small selection of restaurants and cafes can be found as well. As far as education is concerned, parents and their schoolchildren will value the proximity to primary schools and daycares, which are within a short distance from most homes for sale in this part of the city. However, this community does not have any high schools.
