Highland Park is a much sought after neighbourhood for its “million dollar view” ravine properties. The community is established, eclectic, and offers its residents access to natural splendor all year round.
Families, both young and mature, professional couples, empty nesters, and those retiring in place, live in this Dundas neighbourhood. Most enjoy an upscale lifestyle.
Travelling by car typically requires 50 to 65 minutes but expect this time to increase during rush hour as the QEW/403 corridor is the main travel route to downtown Toronto.
Travelling from Aldershot GO to Union station by transit includes an express train during rush hour skipping all stations past Clarkson saving about 10 minutes overall. The all-stops train visits key destinations such as Exhibition with a commuting time of around 65 minutes.
Travelling by car to the downtown commercial district typically requires 14 to 28 minutes which can fluctuate a little during rush hour.
Travelling on public transit from Highland Park to downtown would be by Hamilton Street Railway Bus.
Highland Park abuts the Spring Creek Conservation Area and is one of the reasons for the neighbourhood’s popularity. Generous lots allow for a backyard pool or patio. Traditional and raised bungalows, split levels, and two storey homes of varying age, many of which have been updated or remodelled, feature in the community. There is a group of spectacular single floor and two storey custom homes built after 2000. Traditional style townhouses are found along Moss Boulevard.
Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate the numerous trails of the community including Spring Creek Trail and the Hamilton to Brantford Rail Trail. Parks and parkettes are dotted throughout the neighbourhood.
The boutiques, restaurants and events of Downtown Dundas are within easy reach. Shopping trips for groceries, take-out, pharmacy, big box and retail stores are available at the Metro supermarket or University Plaza.
Highland Park is a quiet neighbourhood amidst natural surroundings. Homes of different era and style allow for choice. Walk the tree canopied streets and admire artfully landscaped yards framed by a forest backdrop. In Highland Park, residents vacation in their backyard.
The Collins Hotel on King Street was built in 1841 and remained in the ownership of the Collins family until 1913. The popular establishment operated as both a tavern and hotel until 1968. The landmark Collins Brewhouse is a Dundas favourite for pub food and outdoor patio enjoyment in summer.
