Redhead Beach

Many homes here date from the 1960s and 70s, with split-level designs and large blocks that lend themselves to renovations, extensions, and family-friendly backyards. Positioned between the lake and the beach, Greater Charlestown blends convenience and lifestyle, making it a popular choice for first-home buyers, growing families, and those seeking a coastalcommunity feel with city access.
