Neighbourhood Profile - Petawawa's Pine Meadows

With home prices steadily on the rise in the Petawawa area, finding a nice affordable home is becoming increasingly difficult.  With that in mind, I wanted to kick off my series of posts focusing on Petawawa neighbourhoods with what I feel is a neighbourhood that still offers good value to home buyers.

Pine Meadows is a centrally located Petawawa neighbourhood with approximately 100 properties in its community. It is within walking distance of parks, schools and shopping, and features mostly 3 - 4 bedroom bungalows in the sub-$200k price range.  You'll find plenty of slab-on-grade construction, meaning you won't have a basement, however if the thought of one-level living space is appealing to you, that shouldn't be an issue.

Just a stone's throw from the Petawawa Terrace Provincial Park makes it a nice neighborhood for the nature enthusiast and its proximity the one of Petawawa newest subdivisions and planned retail developments should bode well for the future of this affordable neighbourhood.  As a bonus, the lots are well above average size when compared to newer subdivisions with many in excess of 100 ft wide and 175 ft deep.
