Welcome to Leaside, Toronto

An affluent neighborhood nestled amidst nature

An affluent and bustling neighborhood northeast of Downtown Toronto, Leaside is an urban center full of gorgeous scenery and prominent shopping and dining. Most of the community’s amenities are family-oriented, and there are many excellent schools here, making Leaside a sought-after place for those with children.
 
Leaside was incorporated by the Canadian Northern Railway in 1913. It is unique because it is the first Ontario town to be planned entirely on paper before it was built. World War I halted the development of Leaside, though the Leaside Munitions Company contributed heavily to the war efforts. In 1967 it became part of the Borough of East York before being annexed into the city of Toronto.
 
Many of the bungalows in Leaside have been rebuilt as gorgeous new construction homes in one of Leaside, Toronto's real estate advancements. However, there are still plenty of beautiful detached and semi-detached Tudor-style dwellings from the 1930s and 1940s. Spacious lots sit on tree-lined streets, giving the residential areas of Leaside a lush, affluent atmosphere and making Leaside's houses for sale all the more coveted and special.

What to Love

  • Lush local parks
  • Family-oriented community
  • Conveniently located
  • Incredible schools
  • A wide variety of older and newer homes for sale
