Real Estate Listings in Athlone Neighbourhood
Athlone Community Amenities & Features:
This established neighborhood was primarily built up in the 1950's although the land was a part of the Edmonton area since the early 1900's. It was initially part of the shipping rail line, but population demands shifted the use to residential housing. Homes for sale in Athlone are mostly single family residences and duplexes. These structures have well sized lots, and the use of natural landscaping is prevalent throughout most of the neighborhood.
Pedestrian access within the community is fairly good, with sidewalks along the local roadways and cul-de-sacs. Some pathways are also present between houses and parks, to allow for foot traffic and cycling away from the major thoroughfare.
Athlone has several options for parents when it comes to educational needs. Sir John Thompson School and Athlone School are both well ranked choices, and day care and after school programs may be provided through the active community league. Many of the residents of Athlone enjoy attending events and activities hosted by the league, and Athlone Park serves as an ideal setting, with open land, sporting fields, and playground facilities.
