Newcastle Real Estate & Houses for Sale
People who prefer a relaxed environment will enjoy Newcastle. Newcastle is excellent for those who need a quiet atmosphere, as the streets are usually very peaceful.
Transportation
The favoured method to navigate this part of the municipality is very often driving. It is especially convenient to come across a place to park, and the majority of properties for sale are a short car ride from the nearest highway, such as Highway 401. In contrast, Newcastle is not an especially convenient part of Clarington for travelling by public transit. Nevertheless, there are a few bus lines, and the closest bus stop is typically very close by. This area is not very suitable for people who prefer to get around as pedestrians because very few common errands can be run without a car. The bike is a somewhat poor method of transportation in Newcastle because the cycling network is not very well-developed, and there are a fair number of hills.
Housing
The homes in this neighbourhood are very new, since around half of its buildings were built following the year 2000, while most of the remaining buildings were constructed in the 1960s and the 1980s. The large proportion of single detached homes in the housing stock of this area is an important part of its character. Around 85% of the population of this neighbourhood own their home while the rest are renters. This area is primarily composed of four or more bedroom and three bedroom homes.
Services
It is a reasonably short trip to get to daycares and primary schools from most properties for sale in Newcastle. In contrast, there are only a very small number of high schools and consequently they can be a very long walk away. As far as food is concerned, it is very easy to access the nearest grocery store by foot in Newcastle. Residents can enjoy a few restaurants and coffee shops as well.
