You guessed it—families. We’re talking spacious homes with big yards; the kind that can fit 3 kids and grandma to boot. Clearview is located right on the southern boundary of Mississauga, with convenient access to Highways 401, 407 and the QEW. The easy commute means you’ll find most residents work in either Mississauga or Toronto.

Travelling east or west is simple and convenient; alternatively, you can hop on the train at Clarkson GO. As a former rural community, Clearview is quiet and peaceful. It’s a premier choice for those who love a country-style feel without being too far from big-city amenities.

Many homes in Clearview were built in the 1980s, with brick exteriors and larger-than-average backyards. However, your options come in a variety of styles, including 2-storey houses, semi-detached homes, linked homes, and some townhouses that make the area more accessible.

Stunning and peaceful green spaces are Clearview’s primary claim to fame! There are beautiful parks at every turn, including Clearview Park and Avonhead Ridge Trail. At Kingsford Gardens, you’ll find a playground children are sure to love!

There’s also a leash-free dog area for our energetic four-legged friends, as well as a picturesque community garden with fruits and vegetables. Clearview Woods is a designated natural area, meaning you and your family can look forward to peaceful living with spectacular scenery for years to come.

Wide streets, calm traffic and plenty of bike lanes make Clearview the neighbourhood of choice for outdoor lovers! Though scenic for cycling and hiking, you may want access to a car for errands and commuting.

Beyond the breathtaking views, you’ll also find everything you could want just a few moments away. Shops, restaurants, movies, and sports fields are never a long drive, a huge plus point for moms driving around a bunch of busy kids! There are also great schools for all age groups.
