Fairway Hills is Glen Abbey's signature private enclave, a semi-gated community of executive homes set among over 8 acres of manicured grounds, adjacent to the Jack Nicklaus-designed Glen Abbey Golf Course, home to more Canadian Opens than any other course in the country. Residents enjoy professionally maintained common areas, community events, and a neighbourly culture that is rare at this level of privacy. Leave your cares at the door. The neighbourhood is quiet and safe, the kind where you walk to Monastery Bakery on Sunday mornings for espresso and fresh bread, and afternoons unfold on trails winding along the river. The backyard feels like it's straight from a Disney movie: a babbling water feature, singing birds, neighbourhood rabbits, and lots of green beyond the deck. Inside, the family room earns its name. Vaulted ceilings, a skylight, and a gas fireplace make it airy and deeply cozy at the same time. The open layout flows naturally, with enough separation between the kitchen and family room and the formal living and dining spaces that the home works for both everyday life and proper entertaining. The main floor primary suite is a hotel room you never have to leave: oversized, a spa-like ensuite with heated floors, a large walk-in closet, and sliding doors opening to your own portion of the deck. Downstairs, a rec room, dedicated gym, glassed wine room, full bathroom and additional bedrooms & home office spaces complete a lower level with room for everything. Abbey Lane PS and Abbey Park SS catchments. St. Ignatius of Loyola CSS for Catholic families. Nine minutes to Oakville GO. Six minutes to the QEW. Twelve minutes to downtown Oakville.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $699/sqft, this is priced below the area average. This could represent genuine value, but let's investigate why. In my experience, underpriced homes often have deferred maintenance, unfavourable layouts, or motivated sellers. I'll help you determine which it is.
Market Position
At 44 days on site, this property has had reasonable exposure. It hasn't sold immediately (which often indicates overpricing), but isn't languishing either. There's likely room for a 3-5% negotiation from asking price.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Oakville are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Larger Home Realities
At 3,000 sqft, this is a substantial home. Budget approximately $400-600/month more for utilities compared to an average-sized home. Maintenance costs scale with size too - roof, HVAC, and cleaning all cost more. That said, space is a luxury that's hard to add later, and larger homes often have better resale in family-oriented neighbourhoods.
Excellent Flexibility
With 6 bedrooms, you have genuine flexibility. Beyond the master and kids' rooms, you can have a dedicated home office, guest room, hobby space, or even rental income potential. In today's work-from-home era, extra bedrooms add significant value. Properties with 5+ bedrooms are relatively rare in Oakville.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 4 bathrooms, morning routines are much smoother. Multiple bathrooms significantly improve daily livability and are a major selling point for resale. Buyers consistently pay more for adequate bathroom counts - this is a strong feature.
