Characteristics

Transportation

Cheshire is an extremely good part of Black Mountain for moving around by car. It is very easy to park, and many real estate listings are a short car ride from the closest highway. Cheshire is not very amenable to bicycling as there is a significant amount of slopes, and the cycling network is fairly poor. Traveling as a pedestrian is also not very feasible for home buyers in this area because very few day-to-day needs can be carried out without a car.

Services

The nearest supermarket in Cheshire is generally only a very short pedestrian trip away. Residents benefit from a few restaurants and cafes as well. As far as education is concerned, this part of Black Mountain does not contain any high schools or primary schools.

Character

Cheshire offers an unique mix of areas that are both busy and quiet. Even though the ambience is not the liveliest in this part of the town with the bars in nearby neighborhoods, it is very easy to find a place to grab a drink because they are generally located very close by. At the same time, this area is very good for those who like quiet surroundings, as there tend to be low levels of noise from traffic. Public green spaces aren't well-situated, which makes them rather difficult to access from numerous locations in the neighborhood. Despite that, residents will be able to access parks in nearby neighborhoods.
