The Bridle Path
About The Bridle Path
Welcome to one of Toronto’s most prestigious and wealthy neighbourhoods! “Pure luxury” is the best way to describe The Bridle Path, which is why the area is also known as “Millionaire’s Row.” The streets are adorned with lavish, multi-million dollar mansions. No expense has been spared in developing one of the most opulent and extravagant communities in Southern Ontario.
Today, everything about the Bridle Path exudes elegance and splendour. Still, you may be surprised to know that the area was once farmland as far as the eye could see. It wasn’t considered for residential expansion until Toronto developer, Forsey Page, created his vision. Soon afterwards, the first Cape Cod Colonial Style mansion was built. Since then, the Bridle Path has become known as one of the most luxurious neighbourhoods in Toronto, with superstars Drake and Prince among the celebrities who have made their home here.
Interesting fact: The Bridle Path was used to film a scene in the movie “Mean Girls” for Regina George’s house.
Who Lives Here
Nothing is quiet or understated about The Bridle Path, which is why some of the wealthiest and most prominent people in Toronto make their home here. Residents include business people, financiers, doctors, engineers, and even movie and music stars. Media mogul Moses Znaimer once owned an estate in The Bridle Path, as did computer entrepreneur Robert Herjavec.
What's Great About It?
Every aspect of The Bridle Path caters to those who appreciate and can afford the finest things in life. It’s a place where no two houses look the same, with stunning styles ranging from ornate French Chateaus, spacious Georgians, and multi-storey Italianate homes. Most residences were built in the mid-1900s, but you will also find a few modern architectural wonders. Generous lot sizes range from 1 to 6 acres, allowing you to create a luxury resort-like feel right in your backyard.
Schools
The Bridle Path offers the best of everything, and the schools are no exception. This includes high-quality private schools like Crescent School, a leading educational facility for boys from grades 3 to 12 and Crestwood School, which places a healthy emphasis on critical thinking and analysis. In addition, you can find facilities offering French instruction, as well as various public schools nearby.

Lawrence Park
About Lawrence Park
The exclusive Lawrence Park neighbourhood lies in North Toronto, nearly hidden from the outside world by lush greenery and ravines. Still, it is close to every convenience and amenity you could ever want. As one of Toronto’s first garden suburbs, Lawrence Park is bordered by Lawrence Avenue to the north, Bayview Avenue to the east, and Yonge Street to the west. Blythwood Ravine lies to the south and gives the neighbourhood its serene countryside feel. Though the area did not fully develop until after World War 2, it quickly became one of Toronto’s most sought-after communities. In 2011, Lawrence Park was ranked as the wealthiest neighbourhood in Canada by postal code.
One of the best features is the artistic blend of classic architectural styles and modern contemporary designs. Heritage homes such as English Cottages, Colonials, and Tudor Revivals are scattered on large lots along the quiet, tree-lined streets.
Who Lives Here
Some of Toronto’s wealthiest families and socialites reside in Lawrence Park, and many have lived here since childhood. Some of the most famous residents have included actress Alexandra Beaton, astronaut Roberta Bondar, and Toronto mayor John Tory. Lawrence Park is an extremely family-oriented community, with many homes passed down to the next generation.
What's Great About It?
With such beautiful greenery, owning a home here feels more akin to living in a park rather than in a residential neighbourhood in a busy city. Lawrence Park is characterized by gentle hills, multiple parks, and the stunning Blythwood Ravine. And yet, a few steps away, you’re amidst the excitement and fantastic dining and shopping experiences along Avenue Road and Yonge Street. Perhaps even better than the natural beauty of the neighbourhood is the sense of community it provides. It’s a place where your neighbours know your name, and everyone comes together like an extended family.
Schools
Like you would expect from such a family-friendly community, Lawrence Park offers access to some of Toronto’s best private and public schools. Examples include John Ross Robertson Junior Elementary School, Toronto French School, and Lawrence Park Collegiate Institute.

About The Danforth
The Danforth, also known as East Danforth and Danforth Village, is a well-known and well-loved community in Toronto’s east end. Located along Danforth Avenue (the extension of Bloor Street that runs east of the Don Valley Parkway), this bustling neighbourhood is full of life and culture year-round.
The Danforth is perhaps best known for its collection of shops, restaurants, and nightlife hotspots along Danforth Avenue. It’s also one of the largest Greek neighbourhoods in North America!

Who Lives Here
From singles to young couples to large families, there’s space for everyone in the Danforth. Thanks to the diverse range of homes available to buy and rent, anyone can find the perfectly-sized place here.
One of the best parts about The Danforth is how multicultural the neighbourhood is. The community is home to local residents from all over the world, which contributes to its warm and welcoming feel—along with its fantastic food and culture.
What's Great About It?
One can’t-miss local event is the annual “Taste of the Danforth” street festival, where thousands of local vendors and millions of visitors take over the avenue for a multi-day celebration of cuisine and culture. This summertime festival is one of Toronto’s most popular food-related events.

Schools
Another huge perk of living in the Danforth is its selection of schools. Some of its most popular options include Secord Elementary School and Gledhill Public School, which welcome students from kindergarten through grade 6.

The Beaches
About The Beaches
Situated along the lakeshore in Toronto’s far east end, the Beaches is named for its proximity to a collection of sandy beaches along Lake Ontario.
The Beaches is bordered by the lake to the south, and it contains extensive public parks and green spaces—all of which makes it a very outdoor-oriented community. Locals and visitors from across Toronto love to visit in the warmer months, when the area’s natural beauty is out in full force.
The friendly, laid-back vibes provided by the Beaches make it a very alluring place for many. With little crime and lots of fantastic public schools, it’s also a great neighbourhood for families.
Here you’ll find plenty of older detached and semi-detached Victorian and Edwardian homes, which usually contain a generous amount of square footage. More unique to the community is the large number of original frame cottage-style beach houses, which were constructed around the early 20th century.
Who Lives Here
Naturally, the Beaches is a neighbourhood that appeals to many, which is why there’s a great diversity of residents here. Between young professionals who enjoy the appealing Queen Street East community to large families who value the quieter residential streets, you can find just about everyone in this charming east-end neighbourhood.
What's Great About It?
Without a doubt, one of the most appealing things about living in the area is how close it is to four public beaches. These include Balmy Beach, Scarboro Beach, Kew Beach, and Woodbine Beach—all of which are connected to form one large continuous beachfront featuring a 3-kilometre long boardwalk.
There’s also a fabulous strip of independent stores, boutiques, restaurants, and cafes along Queen Street East. These conveniences give the quaint little beach-side community a distinctly small-town feel in the big city.
The expansive park system within the Beaches is also very appealing. Green spaces like Woodbine Park, Ashbridges Bay, Woodbine Beach Park, Beaches Park, Balmy Beach Park, and Glen Stewart Park all have their own unique features and feel.
Schools
Some of the area’s most popular elementary schools include:
- Williamson Road Junior School
- Kew Beach Montessori School
