About Longmoor

Longmoor is an established south Burlington neighbourhood characterized by mature residential streets, local parks and predominantly low-rise housing.

Much of the community reflects an earlier period of Burlington’s suburban development, and its streets and properties have continued to evolve through renovations, landscaping and other improvements over time. Longmoor Park provides green space and recreation within the neighbourhood, while nearby Sherwood Forest Park adds further opportunities for outdoor activity.

Shopping, services and other everyday amenities are accessible throughout the surrounding area. Lake Ontario and Burlington’s waterfront destinations are also within reach, although Longmoor itself is better defined by its mature residential setting than by the waterfront.

Together, established surroundings, neighbourhood recreation and its south Burlington location give Longmoor a quieter residential character within the city.

What Makes Longmoor Different?

Longmoor’s character comes from its established south Burlington setting, mature residential streets and neighbourhood parks. Much of the area reflects an earlier period of Burlington’s suburban development, giving it a lower-rise residential character that has continued to evolve through renovations, landscaping and property improvements.

Longmoor Park and nearby Sherwood Forest Park provide recognizable recreation spaces, while Lake Ontario and other south Burlington destinations remain accessible without defining the neighbourhood itself.

This combination of mature surroundings, local recreation and south Burlington location gives Longmoor a quieter residential identity of its own.
