Lorne Real Estate & Houses for Sale

The character of Lorne is exemplified by its slower-paced environment. Lorne is very quiet, as noise from streets and other parts of the city is rarely an issue.

Transportation

Moving around by car is very convenient in Lorne. It is very easy to park. A majority of the houses for sale in this parish are located in places that are not very well-suited for those who prefer to get around by walking as almost no common errands can be run without a vehicle. Although bicycling is more feasible in some areas than others, Lorne is also not very conducive to bicycling since there are a good number of hills for cyclists to brave, and there are very few bike lanes.

Housing

Roughly one third of properties in Lorne were built in the 1960s and 1970s, while the majority of the remaining buildings were built pre-1960 and in the 1980s. The predominance of single detached homes in the housing stock of this parish is an important part of its character. Homeowners occupy nearly all of the dwellings in the parish while the rest are rented. This part of Victoria County offers mainly two bedroom and three bedroom homes.

Services

There are no high schools and no primary schools in Lorne. Additionally, daycares are not numerous and thus not always within a short distance. As far as food is concerned, purchasing one's groceries very often demands the use of a car in this parish.
