Best For
Urbanites who love the conveniences of city living but don’t want the hustle and bustle of Toronto or downtown Mississauga.
Also, buyers who work in Mississauga City Centre and want a short commute but are looking for a reasonably-priced freehold home.
Overview
Cooksville isn’t a neighbourhood per se. It’s really a small city within a bigger city. Cooksville has an autonomous feel to it, partly because it’s separated from Mississauga-proper by major highways but also because historically it was a separate town and so it’s evolved around its own City Square.
Buyers of Cooksville homes will find the area to be self-sufficient, i.e. you never have to leave its borders for the daily necessities. It has all of the amenities and attractions you’d expect of a city centre including a commercial district, Square One shopping mall, an art gallery, the Living Arts Centre that’s home to the Mississauga Symphony Orchestra, a large sporting arena, a community centre and library, hospital, tons of restaurants and cafés and more.
The strike against Cooksville is that it lacks the parks, trails and natural green spaces that southern Mississauga neighbourhoods are known for along with communities that border the Credit River like Streetsville.
The other possible deal-breaker (although for some buyers, this is considered a plus) is that the architecture in the heart of Cooksville is all relatively new – think modern condo towers and office buildings. You’re not getting “quaint” in Cooksville. What you are getting is city living at a smaller scale than Toronto or Mississauga City Centre.
Fairview, which separates Cooksville from downtown Mississagua, is often considered an extension of Cooksville as the neighbourhoods seem to bleed into one. Buyers interested in Cooksville homes for sale should also check out listings in Fairview.
Cooksville has a GO station and easy access to major highways, making it a good location for commuters.
Why We Love Cooksville
It’s Ripe for Investment
We’re going to be frank – Cooksville is sorely in need of some City love and TLC. The old, 1960s era strip malls are dingy, there is no green space to speak of save for one or two sorry-looking parkettes, the town square has long been neglected and there are no architectural landmarks to give the area some character.
That said, Cooksville is a great location for commuters and real estate is still relatively affordable here. All it needs is a bit of investment by the City and developers. The new Hurontario-Main Street LRT may act as a stimulus once built; it’ll stop at the Cooksville GO.
