A Community with Character

Today, it offers a mix of housing styles, from charming post-war bungalows and mid-century homes to new townhouses and modern condo developments closer to the lake. The variety of homes makes Aldershot appealing to both long-time residents and newcomers looking to settle in a community with character.
