Sheffield sits along a broad, beautiful bend of the Saint John River, a quiet rural community with big-sky farmland, river views, and easy connections to Fredericton (about 30 minutes) and Oromocto. Residents enjoy country living without giving up city conveniences, plus quick drives to local markets and services across Sunbury County.
Weekends here are built around the outdoors: launch a canoe, cast a line, or watch migratory waterfowl at the Grand Lake Meadows Protected Natural Area, one of the province’s richest wetland complexes. Scenic routes follow the river to farm stands and studio artisans, or to historic Gagetown and the living-history village at Kings Landing for immersive day trips.
Families are served by the Anglophone West School District, with elementary options close to home and middle/secondary programs a short commute in nearby communities. Healthcare is anchored by Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital, while recreation facilities, libraries, and organized sports are readily found across the capital region.
