Young professionals and investors looking for houses for sale in Toronto east-end that will grow their real estate investment quickly or families looking for large, custom homes within reach budget-wise.
Overview
It’s no secret that Woodbine-Lumsden is on the verge of real estate greatness. Once the friendly neighbourhood abode of primarily aging seniors who called the area home for decades, homes for sale in Toronto Woodbine-Lumsden have been snatched up by investors over the last few years and renovated. More often than not, they’re torn down in favour of large, custom family homes with modern architecture and luxury interior finishes.
Building permits in windows and contractor vans on the quiet, residential streets off Woodbine are a fixture these days. There are still deals to be found for those looking for a Toronto house for sale in Woodbine-Lumsden but only if you get in soon–all of the building activities on prime streets like Monarch and Westlake are going to have buyers in the moderate home budget range priced out within a few years.
Woodbine-Lumsden is attractive not just for its large homes and decent-lot sizes but for its convenient access to the subway, arenas, shopping along the Danforth and lush, green space around Taylor Creek. There’s even the East York Skate Park that’s a hit with neighbourhood kids and teens. Toronto Life describes the area as “the perfect compromise between city and suburb”; a little further out from the action offering better property values and sizes but not the sticks by any means.
