About the Upper Beach

The Upper Beach is strategically positioned in the centre of three lively areas: Little India, the Danforth and the Beach—you get the best of many worlds.

This family home is located directly across the street from Fairmount Park, which is home to a weekly Farmer’s Market featuring locally grown farm fresh fruits, vegetables and artisanal creations. At 1.0 hectares, this park features year-round swimming, 5 tennis courts, a wading pool, children’s playground, multi-purpose sports field and a natural ice rink in the winter.

Looking for a little more action? Toronto’s famous India Bazzar is only a short stroll down the street. With awesome ethnic restaurants, a bustling street vibe and one of the best street festivals, this is truly a diverse and cultural village within the city.

If you’re looking for a more laid-back adventure, Williamson Park Ravine offers a tranquil recluse to explore and adventure.

With nearby daycare, schools, TTC and easy commuting, the Upper Beach is quickly becoming one of Toronto’s hottest areas.
