Lisgar

Situated in the northwest corner of Mississauga, Lisgar is a beautiful suburban neighbourhood. This family-friendly area is known for its attractive entry-level housing prices, good selection of local schools, and quiet surroundings.

One of Lisgar’s biggest claims to fame is its access to the outdoors. Its proximity to vast green spaces, public parks, and winding hiking trails make it a great place for nature lovers to explore.

Lisgar offers mostly detached and semi-detached homes, the majority of which were constructed relatively recently. These newer, suburban-style properties offer great value (given their impressive size), and they’re often sought-after by large families.

Due to the relatively low price points for homes in Lisgar, the neighbourhood is attractive to young families and those looking to enter the market for the first time. As a result, it’s grown into a very family-friendly area.

The community is also popular for commuters, due to the easy access it provides to nearby highways and GO Stations.

In the warmer months, life in Lisgar is best spent outdoors in the area’s public parks and green spaces. Favourites include Osprey Marsh (a peaceful place for birds and wildlife), Lisgar Fields (which features soccer fields, tennis courts, and more), and Trelawny Woods (with its many paths and sports fields).

Lake Aquitaine Park is another popular outdoor destination. With its scenic trail and views of the water, this is one of the best places to enjoy the area’s natural beauty.

Lisgar provides easy access to highways such as the 401, 403, and 407—as well as the Lisgar GO Station (part of the Milton GO Line). For commuters, travelling to and from surrounding communities is a breeze.

Due to the many families moving to Lisgar in recent years, there have been a number of schools built in the area. Popular elementary options include Trelawny Public School, Osprey Woods Public School, and Kindree Public School. Older students often attend Lisgar Middle School followed by Meadowvale Secondary School.
