When someone mentions the words Coronation Park in Oakville they are talking about one of two things. The park itself, located on Lakeshore Road along the shores of Lake Ontario in the western part of Oakville; or the community that surrounds the park. 
Homes in the area that surrounds this popular park are situated on large, mature treed properties. Most of the homes in the area were built in the 1960's and 1970's. The majority of the homes were built of brick and consist mostly of bungalows, split-levels and two storey designs.
Being within walking distance of the lake has always made this part of Oakville highly desirable. Most of the properties boast quarter acre lots. Of course because the area is highly sought after by builders, many of the original homes have been demolished and replaced by large stone and stucco estate homes.
Local schools have been in place for many years and there is an abundance of other parks and forested areas. Shopping is very conveniently located at nearby Hopedale Mall and historic Bronte with its boutiques and lakeside restaurants.
Coronation Park itself has become famous for the annual New Years Day Polar Bear Dip which sees hundreds of brave souls taking a dip in frigid Lake Ontario to raise money for charity. For many years Coronation Park was home to the annual Waterfront Festival. Due to economics, the festival will not be held this year.
During the summer months, the bandshell at Coronation Park hosts weekly concerts. The Town Of Oakville is currently replacing the washroom facilities in the park and adding a concession stand and patio area overlooking the children's playground.
This is a favourite picnic spot for families and school groups. It's a great place to relax, watch the waves, and the wildlife and birds. 
Homes in Coronation Park tend to sell quickly. It is possible to purchase a home in original condition for around $600,000 but renovated and new builds can sell for well over $1,000,000.
