Elizabeth Gardens has much to enjoy. Stately trees mark the streets. Lake Ontario is its southern boundary. There exists home ownership possibilities to fulfill the wish list of anyone and everyone.
Geographically on the Oakville/Burlington border, residents can easily access the activities, shopping, and restaurants of both of these vibrant communities. Together, young and mature families, retirees, and empty nesters share their established, nature filled and secluded neighbourhood.
Travelling by car typically requires 35 to 50 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 Appleby 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 53 minutes.
Travelling by car to the downtown commercial district typically requires 22 to 35 minutes which can fluctuate a little during rush hour. The QEW/403 corridor is the main travel route between Burlington and Hamilton.
Travelling from Appleby GO to Hamilton GO station requires about 30 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.
Spruce Avenue, a major neighbourhood artery, loosely divides the area into north and south. Modest detached bungalows, split levels, and larger two storey homes predominate. Relatively affordable for a community fronting on the water, Elizabeth Gardens is popular with renovators and homeowners updating their 1960’s and 1970’s residences. Ample sized lots attract new build contractors. Attached styles are scattered throughout the area. Condominium buildings of varying height and age hug Lakeshore Road, as do multi-million dollar mansions with a view of Lake Ontario.
At the Burloak Waterfront Park, a kid’s playground, picnic areas, walking trails, waterfront vistas and pier, can make for a pleasant day of family togetherness.
The RioCan Centre Burloak is favoured for shopping and entertainment. Located in the southeast corner of the city, residents are in an enviable position to enjoy the experiences and destinations offered by both Oakville and Burlington. Retail, dining establishments, recreational facilities, and professional services are all within a short drive.
Elizabeth Gardens is a neighbourhood with all things practical and recreational in and around it. Properties are big enough for pools and summertime pool parties. Mature trees lend a picturesque backdrop to the winter’s first snow. Neighbours out for evening walks and kids riding their bikes. The sound of lawnmowers keeping meticulously kept yards looking their best. In other words, Elizabeth Gardens is an amazing family community.
The Toronto skyline and Niagara Peninsula can be viewed from the bluffs of the Burloak Waterfront Park, not to mention, large ships and great sky gazing. Along the shale cliff, you can observe one of the largest nesting colonies of bank swallows in Lake Ontario’s western basin.
