Directly adjacent to conservation lands, this is a neighbourhood with comfortable homes on treed and generously sized properties. Mid century homes in original condition are presented at an attractive price, while in others, the renovation work has already been done providing a turn-key opportunity.
Pleasant Valley is a collection of families at every stage of life, empty nesters and retirees.
Travelling by car typically requires 45 to 65 minutes but expect this time to increase during rush hour as the QEW/403 corridor is the main travel route to downtown 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 26 minutes which can fluctuate a little during rush hour.
Travelling on public transit from Pleasant Valley to downtown would be by Hamilton Street Railway Bus.
Bordered by conservation lands, early 1920’s charmers to contemporary designed homes are available in Pleasant Valley. Side and back splits from the 1960’s and 1970’s reign supreme. Traditional and raised bungalows built in the late ’50’s to ’70’s are also prevalent, while two storey properties range in age from the 1960’s to a recent small enclave of executive custom homes.
Many of the hiking and cycling trails of the Dundas Valley Conservation Area are accessible from Pleasant Valley. The Hamilton to Brantford Rail Trail runs through the entire length of the community.
University Plaza has an eclectic mix of shops and services for daily essentials: specialty grocery, fast-food franchises, pharmacy, big box and retail stores. The boutiques and restaurants of the downtown commercial area of Dundas can be visited easily, as can the business establishments of West Hamilton.
The sheer variety of dwelling type is a major drawing point for the community. There are little pockets of established districts with their own ambiance. Street names like Little John Road and Robinhood Drive showcase the popularity of the split level architectural style. Custom built contemporary homes grace the streets in the vicinity of Turnbull Road. In between – there is a little mix of everything. From a birds eye view, the neighbourhood is serene and green. Pleasant Valley indeed.
Nearly 35 km. in total length, the Hamilton to Brantford Rail Trail highlights the picturesque local natural scenery and wildlife.
