Gloucester Real Estate & Houses for Sale

The character of Gloucester is exemplified by its slower-paced ambience. Gloucester is quiet, as there are generally low levels of noise from traffic - although there are still several noisier areas, especially closer to the railway line. Parks aren't well-situated, making it sometimes hard to reach them. Still, there are a few green spaces nearby for residents to check out, like Gloucester Community Park.

Transportation

Driving is usually the preferred method of transportation in Gloucester. It is especially convenient to park, and the majority of real estate listings are a rather short drive from the closest highway. Cycling is challenging in this part of Township of Langley because there are a fair number of hills for cyclists to brave, and there are very few bike lanes. It is also very difficult for people walking to move around in Gloucester since almost no daily needs can be carried out without a vehicle.

Housing

Around three quarters of the dwellings in the neighbourhood are occupied by homeowners while the remainder are rented. The substantial proportion of single detached homes in the housing stock of this part of the municipality is an important part of its character. Roughly 45% of homes in this neighbourhood were constructed in the 1960s and 1970s, while many of the remaining buildings were built pre-1960 and in the 1990s. This area offers mainly two bedroom and four or more bedroom homes.

Services

It is rarely possible for house buyers in Gloucester to do groceries as pedestrians. Residents are served by a few restaurants and cafes as well. Concerning education, Gloucester does not contain any high schools or primary schools. Furthermore, daycares are not numerous and accordingly not always within walking distance.
