Woodbine Corridor, Toronto

Woodbine Corridor is a residential area in east Toronto made up mostly of low-rise streets of semi-detached and detached houses, with a smaller number of condo apartments. The streets are largely local residential roads, broken up by small parkettes and a few larger parks. Buildings are mostly low-rise, and the housing stock spans several decades of construction. Of the homes sold in the last 24 months, 54% were semi-detached houses, 29% were detached houses and 7% were condo apartments. Most were built between 1926 and 2003, and the typical home had 3 bedrooms. There were 210 sales in that period, with a median sale price of $1,167,500. The median time on market was 8 days, which points to quick sales. Right now 4 homes are for sale. For getting around, the area is served by TTC bus routes, and the Line 2 Bloor-Danforth subway runs nearby along Danforth Avenue. No stations are located inside the area itself. Woodbine Avenue and Coxwell Avenue are major north-south roads, Danforth Avenue is the main east-west route, and the Don Valley Parkway is the nearest highway connection. Everyday shops and services are found mainly along the nearby main roads. They include cafes, grocery stores, restaurants and pharmacies. Green space is spread through the area. The parks are Cairns Ave Parkette, East Lynn Park, Edgewood Parkette, Fairmount Park, Hillingdon - Woodrow Parkette, Maughan Crescent Parkette, Merrill Bridge Road Park and Moncur Playground.
