Oakes Real Estate & Houses for Sale

The character of Oakes is exemplified by its slower-paced atmosphere. Access to public green spaces from many locations within the neighbourhood, such as Corporal Nathan Cirillo Leashfree Dog Park and Meadowlands Park, is easy since there are approximately 20 of them nearby for residents to check out. This part of the city is also very quiet, as the streets are generally very tranquil close to Highway 403 or Lincoln M Alexander Parkway.

Transportation

Cars are a very good mode of transportation in Oakes. Many real estate listings are a reasonably short car ride from the closest highway, such as Lincoln M Alexander Parkway, and coming across a parking spot is easy. However, the transit network in Oakes is not very practical. Nevertheless, there are a few bus lines passing through the neighbourhood, and bus stops are not very far-removed from most homes. Getting around on foot is not very practical for house buyers in this area because most daily needs are occasionally difficult to carry out without a vehicle. On the other hand, bicycling is easy in this neighbourhood.

Housing

The substantial percentage of single detached homes in the housing stock of Oakes is an important part of its character. A majority of the housing growth in this area took place in the 1990s. This part of Hamilton also has a choice of housing size options - although this part of Hamilton is especially good for those looking for four or more bedroom homes. Homeowners occupy roughly 95% of the dwellings in Oakes and 5% are rented.

Services

It is rarely feasible for property owners in this neighbourhood to do groceries as pedestrians. Residents are served by approximately 10 restaurants and cafes as well. With respect to education, families will welcome the proximity to daycares and primary schools, which are within a short distance from all properties for sale in Oakes. On the other hand, this neighbourhood does not have any high schools.
