Fairview Real Estate & Houses for Sale

Fairview offers an unique mix of areas that are both busy and quiet. Although the atmosphere is not the most lively in this part of the city with the nightlife venues in nearby neighbourhoods, it is rather difficult to find a place to grab a drink since they are generally located quite far away. At the same time, this area is especially quiet overall, as there isn't a lot of street noise or city clamour.

Transportation

The best transportation option in Fairview is very often driving. It is very easy to access a parking spot. In contrast, the public transit infrastructure in Fairview is not very practical. Thankfully, there are approximately 10 bus lines traversing the neighbourhood, and bus stops are not very far away from most properties. Walking is not very popular in Fairview, despite the fact that many common errands can be run without a car. On the other hand, Fairview is rather conducive to bicycling as the bicycling network is good.

Housing

Homeowners occupy roughly 80% of the properties in Fairview and the rest are rented. The housing stock of this neighbourhood is composed predominantly of single detached homes and townhouses. This area experienced its biggest building boom in the 1960s and 1970s, so most of the available properties are from this time period. This area offers mainly four or more bedroom and three bedroom homes.

Services

The closest grocery store in this area is typically only a long walk away. Additionally, this part of Red Deer is a good place in which to eat out or go to a cafe. With regards to education, in Fairview, families will usually be able to access primary schools and daycares without a vehicle. In contrast, there are only a few high schools and therefore they can be a rather long trip away.
