Aldershot enjoys streetscapes of beautiful mature trees, abundant green spaces and views of The Bay. A multitude of activities are within an easy walk or drive, and its geographic location is central to destinations throughout the Golden Horseshoe.
The vibrancy of the neighbourhood appeals to everyone at every stage of life.
Travelling by car typically requires 40 to 55 minutes but expect this time to increase during rush hour as the QEW/403 corridor is the main travel route between Burlington and Toronto.
Travelling from Aldershot GO to Union station by transit includes an express train during rush hour skipping all stations past Clarkson saving about 10 minutes overall. The all-stops train visits key destinations such as Exhibition with a commuting time of around 65 minutes.
Travelling by car to the downtown commercial district typically requires 12 to 18 minutes which can fluctuate a little during rush hour. The QEW/403 corridor is the main travel route between Burlington and Hamilton.
Travelling from Aldershot GO to Hamilton GO station requires about 17 minutes. Keep in mind that not all trains travel to Hamilton during off-peak hours and you may need to connect with a GO bus.
Residence possibilities are varied and extensive. Located in the far west of Burlington, four neighbourhood districts combine to create Aldershot. Modest older bungalows and split levels are giving way to large scale renovations, custom designed homes, and infill developments. Townhomes and condominiums, some with spectacular views of the Lake, round out the options. The neighbourhood is attracting renovators and builders largely due to the ample sized lots.
Neighbourhood parks are abundant and impressive. LaSalle Park and Marina is perfect for a walk, a picnic, or fun with the kids at the splash pad on a hot summer day. Admire the boats docked at the Marina or plan a special function at the Park Pavillion. The famous, Royal Botanical Gardens has over 27 km of trails. Enjoy the rock garden, the various seasonal blooms, and be watchful for small animals and rare birds.
Plains Road is the drawing point for everything in Aldershot: fine dining, fast food franchises, grocery stores and pharmacies, retail, and professional services. The IKEA store is an Aldershot landmark.
Take part in Alderfest, an annual gathering to celebrate the community with entertainment, food and activities. Scheduled seasonal events occur throughout the year. If you’re searching for community spirit and involvement, a great place to live, work and play, then Aldershot may be the neighbourhood for you.
The Aldershot Players dinner theatre might be the perfect date night idea. Laugh at the lighthearted comedy presentations while indulging your senses in a fabulous meal.
