Rosedale-Moore Park, Toronto

Rosedale-Moore Park is a central Toronto neighbourhood of winding residential streets, ravine parkland and a mix of apartment buildings and large houses, served by five subway stations. The street pattern is less regular than the downtown grid. Curving lanes follow the edges of the Don Valley ravines, and mature trees line many blocks. Detached and semi-detached houses sit on the quieter interior streets, while mid-rise and high-rise apartment buildings cluster nearer the main roads and stations. Most homes sold in the last 24 months were built between 1951 and 2003, though the area also includes older housing of varied styles. Over those 24 months, 415 homes sold, and 28 are for sale now. The median sale price was $1,765,738, and the median home spent 23 days on the market. Condo apartments made up 36% of sales, detached houses 32%, co-op apartments 13% and semi-detached houses 11%. The typical home sold had 3 bedrooms. Getting around is centred on the subway. Bloor-Yonge, Castle Frank, Rosedale, St. Clair and Summerhill stations are all inside the area, and they connect to Line 1 and Line 2. Major roads include Bloor Street, Yonge Street, St. Clair Avenue and Mount Pleasant Road. The Don Valley Parkway runs along the eastern edge and gives highway access. Everyday shops and services are found along the commercial strips near the stations and main roads. These include cafes, grocery stores, restaurants and pharmacies. Green space is a defining feature. Parks inside the area are Alex Murray Parkette, Asquith Green Park, Beaumont Park, Budd Sugarman Park, Chorley Park, Craigleigh Gardens, David A. Balfour Park and Don Valley Brick Works Park. The Rosedale-Moore Park Community Association is the community centre listed here. Library branches are Toronto Public Library - Deer Park and Toronto Public Library - Toronto Reference Library. Schools inside the area are Rosedale Junior Public School and Whitney Junior Public School, both part of the Toronto DSB, and Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic School, part of the Toronto CDSB.
