      About This Property

      If you\'re a buyer looking in Morrison under the $2.5M mark, you may be finding your options to be a little...complicated. At this price point, properties tend to fall somewhere along the axis of land or house. Finding one where you have a compelling case for both is considerably harder.So, first things first. Buy on the best street you can afford. This is where Donlea delivers. A genuinely quiet street, beautiful homes, right at the heart of the neighbourhood and with schools close enough for the children to walk themselves. Frankly put, it\'s ideal.Then there\'s the land. With a new survey available, this west-backing 93\' x 185\' lot with stream offers the potential to build approximately 5,200 sq. ft. For those looking to create their forever home, it\'s a rare opportunity to secure a substantial piece of land in one of Oakville\'s premier neighbourhoods.But it would be remiss not to acknowledge that there is also a great deal of house here to love - and renovate.The existing 3,263 sq. ft., four-level side-split is surprisingly generous, with large bedrooms, a double garage and plenty of scope to reimagine the spaces. Think contemporary interiors, wall-to-wall windows and a seamless floorplan, all while retaining the scale and character that make this house work. A fantastic opportunity for those who want to control their budget while creating equity. In other words, you have options. Build new. Renovate. Or simply take your time and decide what makes the most sense for you.With this kind of flexibility, the upside is yours to create.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      Everything you need to know about valuing and buying with RealOrca.

      What is the lot size and what potential is noted?
      The west-backing lot measures 93 by 185 feet and includes a stream. The listing states potential to build approximately 5,200 sq. ft.; a new survey is available.
      What schools and parks are in the Eastlake area?
      Maple Grove Public School and Oakville Trafalgar High School are commonly cited for Eastlake; Coronation Park is also an area destination. School eligibility varies by address.
      What is the typical buying process for a detached home in Oakville?
      In Oakville, buying a detached home usually follows the standard Ontario process: get pre-approved financing, work with a realtor to shortlist properties and review comparable sales, arrange viewings and inspections, submit an offer (often including conditions as applicable), and complete legal due diligence with your lawyer/notary. Because many homes are in mature neighbourhoods, it’s also common to pay extra attention to lot size, servicing (water/sewer), roof/HVAC age, and general maintenance history.
      Which Oakville neighbourhood areas are popular for families, and what should I consider?
      Detached homes in Oakville are commonly chosen by families for established streets, larger lots, and access to schools, parks, and everyday amenities. When comparing neighbourhoods, consider proximity to major roads for commuting, nearby parkland/trails (especially around waterfront and municipal park systems), the character of the area (older versus newer pockets), and how convenient local services are for daily routines like groceries, recreation, and schools.
      How is transit and commuting in Oakville, especially if I work around Toronto?
      Oakville benefits from both local bus service and regional rail along the Lakeshore West corridor. The Oakville GO Station area in Midtown is a key access point for commuters, and ongoing service improvements support more frequent connections. If you commute to Toronto, look at travel times during your typical departure windows and verify transfer options through local transit connections for the most reliable door-to-door route.
      What outdoor amenities and lifestyle features are common in Oakville detached-home areas?
      Many detached neighbourhoods offer a strong “everyday outdoors” lifestyle—large municipal parkland, trails, and family-friendly recreation. Oakville is also known for waterfront access to Lake Ontario, including popular public spaces like Coronation Park. As you tour, check for walkability to parks, proximity to trails, and whether the area supports cycling and weekend activities for families.
