Oakville Neighbourhoods - Old Oakville

Oakville Neighbourhoods - Old Oakville
 

When you mention the words Old Oakville, it conjures up thoughts of heritage homes, a vibrant downtown core, rich history, Lake Ontario and the 16 Mile Creek and harbour. This area closest to the downtown boutiques, restaurants and coffee shops is one of the most sought after for high end real estate. Stately homes on large lots are mixed with small quaint cottage style homes. Luxury townhomes are popping up as infill projects. You pay the price to walk to town and the lake.

  This is not a haven for starter homes, however small some homes may be. Old Oakville, or Olde Oakville as it is often called boasts mature tree lined streets with names like Pine, Maple, Spruce, and Douglas. Builders have been buying up properties in this area and constructing what are often referred to in Oakville as "monster homes". Homes south of Lakeshore Road and steps to Lake Ontario ooze character. Boatowners can park their boats in slips on the 16 Mile Creek or enjoy a variety of different boat clubs. The Oakville Centre for the Performing Arts entertains locals and visitors alike.

  There is a selection of condos to choose from in Old Oakville. Some overlook Towne Square, a popular gathering spot for many downtown activities throughout the year. A couple of other upscale condo buildings overlook Lake Ontario and the 16 Mile Creek. George's Square is another popular park in the middle of town with beautiful homes surrounding it.

 This desirable area offers homes for sale starting in the $600,000 + range up to $2,000,000.
