Davisville Village is one of those hidden gems that has the best of both worlds. Close to downtown, but with a small-town village feel, it has the benefit of being a quiet, family-friendly neighbourhood that’s still within easy reach of everything.
Here are 11 reasons to love living in Davisville:
1. It’s Centrally LocatedDavisville is a midtown neighbourhood that stretches north from Mount Pleasant Cemetery to Eglinton Avenue East, and east from Yonge Street to Bayview Avenue.
2. TransportationBy bordering on Yonge, it’s on the Yonge-University subway line, and benefits from being served by both the Davisville and Eglinton stations, as well as regular bus service on Eglinton and Bayview avenues. Great public transportation means fewer residents rely on cars to get around.
3. Families FirstDavisville’s many tree-lined residential streets and core of single-family homes – most dating to the 1920s and ’30s – encourage family living. There’s a healthy mix of seniors who have been in their homes for upwards of 40 years, and an influx of younger families putting down roots as older generations transition out of family homes.
4. Housing MixBut it’s not all single-family homes. High-rise living along the perimeter of the neighbourhood makes for a variety of housing options, adding to the attraction for singles and young couples as well as families.
5. AffordabilityLike many of Toronto’s neighbourhoods, the real estate market in Davisville has undergone incredible growth over the past several years. In 2015-2016, for instance, the area outperformed the Toronto real estate market in general. Yet it’s still one of the more affordable neighbourhoods.
6. Great SchoolsThe number of schools in Davisville Village makes it the perfect neighbourhood to raise kids.  Maurice Cody PS is one of midtown’s highly ranked public schools. Nearby private schools include Greenwood, UCC, The York School, St. Clement’s, Branksome Hall and the Toronto French School.
7. RecreationThis leafy residential area includes June Rowlands Park, with its tennis courts, ball diamond, shaded play area and wading pool, as well as a handful of parkettes. Plus, being tucked next to Mount Pleasant Cemetery means residents can take advantage of a sprawling park for bike riding, bird watching or going for a stroll to enjoy the many artworks that have been donated.
8. Food & ShoppingThe neighbourhood is known for its restaurants, outstanding shopping districts, and active nightlife. Mount Pleasant Village, in particular, is a prime shopping district along Mount Pleasant Road where you’ll also find some of Toronto’s best restaurants and cafes and specialty food shops.
9. Other AmenitiesThere are plenty of retail shops in the area, a weekly AppleTree farmers’ market spring through fall, services and office buildings.
10. Family-friendly ActivitiesHighlights for the neighbourhood are the family fun fair in June, harvest fair in September and the Christmas Fair, which this year is being held Dec. 2 and features live music, sidewalk sales, photos with Santa, tree decorating and lighting and much more.
11. Historic Home Value Increases Davisville Village has historically been a great investment. Over the last 10 years, home owners have experienced an average annual increase of 8.5% per year. This is due to the neighbourhood’s proximity to transit, shops, restaurants and great schools. For an in-depth statistical analysis, call me and we’ll review the numbers with you.
