Yonge-Eglinton, Toronto

Yonge-Eglinton is a dense, mixed-format midtown Toronto neighbourhood where low-rise streets of detached and semi-detached houses sit alongside condo apartment buildings, centred on the Yonge Street and Eglinton Avenue intersection. Residential side streets run off the main avenues in a largely gridded pattern, and the built form ranges from mid-century houses to recent condo towers. Most homes sold were built between 1951 and 2023, so the housing stock mixes several decades of construction. Of the 207 homes sold in the last 24 months, detached houses made up 44%, condo apartments 36% and semi-detached houses 13%. The typical home sold had 3 bedrooms. The median sale price over that period was $1,610,000, and the median time on market was 16 days. There are currently 8 homes for sale, so the number of listings at any moment is small. Two subway stations lie inside the area: Davisville and Eglinton, both on the Yonge subway line. Yonge Street is the main north-south road, and Eglinton Avenue is the main east-west road, served by bus routes and the Eglinton Crosstown light rail line. Highway 401 lies to the north and the Don Valley Parkway to the east, both reachable by road. Shops and services are concentrated along Yonge Street and Eglinton Avenue. They include cafes, grocery stores, restaurants and pharmacies, along with other everyday services within walking distance of most streets. Green space includes Eglinton Park, Oriole Park, Fiona Nelson Parkette and St. Clements - Yonge Parkette. North Toronto Memorial Community Centre and Chabad Lubavitch on the East Side are the community centres in the area, and the Toronto Public Library - Northern District is the library. Schools inside the area are Marshall McLuhan Catholic Secondary School, run by the Toronto CDSB, and Oriole Park Junior Public School, run by the Toronto DSB.
