Fairview Real Estate & Houses for Sale
Fairview offers a great variety of green spaces to enjoy, despite its sometimes busy atmosphere. To be more specific, it is easy to reach green spaces in the neighbourhood since there are around 40 of them close by for residents to unwind in. Despite the abundance of parks, a lot of streets have below average tree coverage. Thanks to the presence of few people out and about on the streets, this part of Pointe-Claire remains relatively quiet, although there can be higher levels of noise for those who are closer to Autoroute Félix-Leclerc or the railway line.
Transportation
Fairview is a fairly convenient part of Pointe-Claire for pedestrians; running common errands is easy without a car. This area is also fairly bicycling-friendly as there are a limited number of slopes for cyclists to brave, and the bicycling network is well-developed. Cars are a great means of transportation in this neighbourhood. It is straightforward to access a place to park, and the majority of properties for sale are a short drive from the closest highway, such as Autoroute Félix-Leclerc. However, Fairview is not particularly transit friendly. Thankfully, homeowners have access to around 20 bus lines, and most houses are very close to a bus stop.
