Flatrock real estate is a haven for those wanting to trade in the hectic life of the city for something more relaxing. Situated by the ocean and sheltered by cliffs, this community boasts stunning natural beauty, including a shoreline that gave Flatrock its name.
Only 12 kilometers from St. John’s and all the city’s conveniences, Flatrock is also close to the town of Torbay. When the Torbay Bypass Road is constructed, it will provide owners of Flatrock real estate with easy access to major shopping districts, the city, the highway, and St. JOhn's International Airport .
This area was settled by immigrants from England, Scotland, Ireland, Norway and France, in 1762. More than two hundred years later, in 1984, Flatrock welcomed a special visitor, His Holiness, Pope John Paul II. Every year, the Lady of Lourdes Grotto (the largest such shrine east of Montreal), attracts visitors from around the world.
Flatrock real estate offers a variety of options for buyers, from new homes to older properties. With its soccer and softball areas, tennis facilities and playgrounds, the community has something for each family member. Additional town services and volunteer organizations help to make Flatrock a thriving place to live.
