Lakeshore Real Estate & Houses for Sale
Lakeshore offers a relaxed ambience and will appeal to home buyers who enjoy spending time outdoors. Parks are very well-located and there are a few of them nearby for residents to check out, making it easy to access them. This neighbourhood is also very quiet, as there isn't a lot of street noise or city clamour closer to Queen Elizabeth Way.
Transportation
This part of Hamilton is especially car friendly. It is especially convenient to come across a place to park, and nearby highways, such as Queen Elizabeth Way, are rather easy to drive to from any home in Lakeshore. On the other hand, the public transit in this area is quite bad. Thankfully, there are a few bus lines traversing the neighbourhood. Despite the fact that it is a flat ride to most destinations, this area is not particularly bicycling-friendly because the cycling network is fairly poor. Lakeshore is also not very convenient for those who get around by foot since many daily needs are at times difficult to carry out without the use of a car.
Housing
In Lakeshore, around 70% of dwellings are large apartment buildings, while the remainder are mainly single detached homes. This neighbourhood offers mainly two bedroom and one bedroom homes. Homeowners occupy around 70% of the properties in the neighbourhood and 30% are occupied by renters. A majority of the housing growth in this part of the city has occurred following the year 2000.
Services
Lakeshore does not have any high schools or primary schools. Moreover, parents may find it difficult for their children to get to daycares as pedestrians. With respect to eating, doing one's groceries frequently requires the use of a vehicle in Lakeshore. Nevertheless, getting to the nearest pharmacy and thus some staple foods is generally easy. There are also a limited number of choices for those who care about restaurants in close proximity.
