Kingston Road Village

Kingston Road Village

Our Kingston Road office is in the heart of Kingston Road Village. They used to say that the village run,  a few blocks North and a few blocks South Kingston Road and it was between Main Street and Victoria Park including Henley Gardens, but it now we say that it includes The Hunt Club as well as the blocks that leads to Warden.

This stretch of Kingston Road was actually the first part of the Beaches to be settled and today is growing quickly East on Kingston Rd.

 It is a thriving community that is growing by leaps and bounds and one of the areas where homes had a large price increase over the past couple of years. 

For a long time there was a shortage of condominium buildings in the area and that lack of inventory persists although there are a number of new condo development that have been build and others that are being built on Kingston Road.

The Southwood Condos is a New Condo by Streetcar Developments located at Kingston Rd & Main St, Toronto, which should be ready for occupancy by the end of this year

The other large development on Kingston Road is just east of our office, across from Henley Gardens.

Designed by Teeple Architects, it is a condominium complex by Tas.

Other new projects in the area include Glen Condos, as well as Upper Beach Club 

and Beach House Condos among many others.

The attraction to the area are the parks, the ravines, the proximity to the lake but also the shops and the restaurants, as well as the schools and the people.

The festivals on Kingston Road bring out all the residents and the atmosphere is festive with food, music, balloons and sales.

There are great green spaces, like the area of the Glen Stewart Ravine. 

The city of Toronto parks department has developed a nature trail through the Glen Stewart Ravine. There is great beauty and much hidden charms in this narrow and rich ravine.
Ontario Trails Council describes the walk and nature trail as follows "At the southerly end of the ravine, the stream disappears underground and the forest gives way to a grassy open area that is being allowed to regenerate naturally. Ontario Trails Council describes the walk and nature trail as follows "At the southerly end of the ravine, the stream disappears underground and the forest gives way to a grassy open area that is being allowed to regenerate naturally. In the winter the area is filled with children and their families enjoying the snow.

During all seasons, walkers can continue south along Glen Manor Dr. East until reaching a small park just north of Queen on the left hand side. There are some pretty rockeries in this steep-sided little park. Following the path through it will bring you out to Queen St. Cross Queen and you will find yourself at our Queen St. office.

If and when you find yourself here, please stop by to see us. The Queen Street office was our first office, the one on Kingston Road came later and now we have a new central location.

Kingston Road Village is a great business area filled with interesting shops, restaurants, cafes and flower shops. It is also very convenient as all the banks are there too.
