Pointe-Claire Real Estate & Houses for Sale

Pointe-Claire offers a slower-paced ambience and will appeal to home buyers who enjoy spending time in green spaces. There is a fair amount of greenery in this city as there are many tree-lined streets. There are over 100 green spaces nearby for residents to discover, including Parc Frederick T. Wilson and Parc Edward Janiszewski, and they are very well-spread out, resulting in them being easy to access from many locations in Pointe-Claire. This city is also very quiet, as there isn't a lot of street noise or city clamour around Autoroute Félix-Leclerc, Autoroute du Souvenir or one of the railway lines.

Transportation

Driving is an excellent transportation option in Pointe-Claire. It is easy to park, and it is a short car ride to the closest highway, such as Autoroute du Souvenir, from anywhere in this part of the Greater Montreal metropolitan area. In contrast, getting around by transit can be occasionally difficult in Pointe-Claire by reason of the infrequent service. Nevertheless, there is the Gare Pointe-Claire, Gare Valois and Gare Pine Beach with access to the 11 - Vaudreuil/Hudson. The city is connected by approximately 30 bus lines, and most houses are very close to a bus stop. Walking is not very popular in this city, although many daily needs can be carried out without a car. In contrast, Pointe-Claire is moderately bicycling-friendly because there are a limited number of hills for cyclists to brave.

Housing

Pointe-Claire did not experience a single building boom; the construction of new buildings in this city was spread throughout several decades in recent history. In this part of Montréal, the majority of dwellings are single detached homes, while large apartment buildings and townhouses make up most of the remaining housing stock. About three quarters of the properties in the city are occupied by homeowners and renters occupy the remainder. This city is primarily composed of four or more bedroom and three bedroom homes.

Services

Families will value that no matter where their property is situated in Pointe-Claire, both primary and secondary schools are nearby. However, parents and their kids may find it very difficult to get to daycares by walking. In terms of eating, it is very rarely possible for house buyers in this part of the Greater Montreal metropolitan area to do groceries in one of about 40 stores by walking. Nevertheless, pharmacies are typically convenient to access by foot and supply some basic food items. There are also a few choices for those who appreciate restaurants in close proximity.
