What is it like to live in Falgarwood?
Falgarwood is an established, family-oriented neighbourhood in east-central Oakville, north of the QEW and 403, west of Trafalgar Road and bordered by the Iroquois Shoreline Woods to the east. Built mainly through the 1970s and 80s, it offers detached homes on generous lots and a well-used network of parks and trails. It is a walk-to-school kind of neighbourhood, in Oakville, Ontario, known for its access to one of the area's largest woodlots.
Detached homes on generous lots make up most of Falgarwood, built through the 1970s and 80s, with some townhomes mixed in. The Iroquois Shoreline Woods along its eastern edge is one of the largest remaining upland woodlots below the Niagara Escarpment, and it shapes the neighbourhood as much as the housing does, with trails running right up to backyards on some streets.
Families moving to Falgarwood are often trading up from a smaller home or condo, which means a mortgage conversation that looks at both selling one property and buying another at the same time. Having worked as a financial advisor and mortgage advisor before real estate, I try to line up those two sides of the transaction so a client is not carrying two mortgages, or none, longer than necessary.
