Living here

The Mid Island pocket that stays green and central.

Tucked between Silver Lake and Clove Lakes Park, it is leafy and residential, with tree lined streets and a mix of detached homes that give it a settled, established feel. It is the kind of place where the parks are close and the pace is calm.

The real draw is being central. From Sunnyside you are minutes from Clove Lakes Park, close to Silver Lake, and well positioned to reach the expressway, the ferry, and just about anywhere on the island. For buyers who want green space and a convenient location, Sunnyside checks both boxes.
