Runnymede is just now starting to get the buyer attention it deserves. Often overlooked for the trendier Junction to its east, the well-appointed Bloor West Village to its south and, of course, the high-end residential areas of nearby High Park and Baby Point, Runnymede was all too easy to pass over in years past–that is, until property prices in neighbouring hotspots went through the roof.
Now, those looking for affordable houses for sale in Toronto, particularly first-time buyers, are drawn in by Runnymede’s stock of sturdy and attractive single-family homes at reasonable prices. Now is the time to get in before property prices in Runnymede catch up with its neighbours.
Why We Love Runnymede
It’s Bloor West on a Budget
Runnymede is often collapsed into Bloor West Village and it certainly benefits from the shops, restaurants and popular annual events held along the bustling commercial strip just to its south.Most Runnymede homes are within walking distance to Bloor but it pays to be a few extra blocks north of the action. The price of Bloor West Village homes (in fact, any Toronto home steps to a subway station) can be significantly higher, giving Runnymede an edge with first- and second-time homebuyers.
