About the neighbourhood

The town of NORTH TORONTO was incorporated in 1890 as the result of an amalgamation between Davisville Village, Eglinton Village and Bedford Park Village. Despite the amalgamation, the old neighbourhood names remain in common use to distinguish the various pockets. When the Mega City was formed in 1998 the North Toronto neighbourhood became a central location within the new city boundaries, yet its identity endures. It is especially popular with families with young children. It has an excellent selection of public,private and separate schools, many parkettes and playgrounds, a community centre, a library, and convenient access to Toronto's transit system.

BEDFORD PARK began as a farming hamlet centred around the crossroads of Yonge Street and Lawrence Avenue. It is likely that Bedford Park is named after the Bedford Park Hotel which opened in 1873 at the south west corner of Yonge Street and Fairlawn Avenue.

Bedford Park has a good mix of detached and homes and semis. The original housing stock was built between 1890 and 1940. However, many of the bungalows in the neighbourhood have been torn down and replaced with custom designed houses. The award winning Bedford Glen development on Sylvan Valley Way, is a pretty collection of low-rise terraced condominium apartments and townhouses in a private ravine setting.

LYTTON PARK, now known as Lawrence Park South, is an enclave filling a partly hidden valley around Strathallan Boulevard; the lawn bowling and tennis courts provide a neighbourhood focus. Here the detached Georgian houses sit on generously sized lots with large trees that provide wonderful shade in summer and a winter wonderland when the snow comes. Part of the area's appeal is its proximity to posh schools and amenities like the Granite club and Sherwood Park, which lies just south of the area.

Known as Waverley Park until 1931, the actual building of homes in the WANLESS PARK district, boundaried by Lawrence to the south, Ronan to the west and the Riverview Drive Ravine to the east, was stalled initially by World War I and then by the Great Depression. In 1931 the City of Toronto expropriated the properties in the centre of Waverley Park for the creation of a public park. The Park itself, and the streets in the community are all named after John Wanless, a former Toronto alderman and educator. The area formed by the former Teddington Park and Wanless Park, now known as Lawrence Park North, is one of the city's most exclusive districts, drawing discerning homeowners with such amenities as the Rosedale Golf Club.

Wanless Park's solid brick detached houses were built mostly in the 1930's and 1940's. Most of the houses are two storey, with a sprinkling of bungalows as well. Overall the property sizes in Wanless Park are very good, with most homes having at least a thirty foot frontage and either a mutual or private driveway, and being constructed in the Tudor and Gothic styles turning to Geordian and Victorian closer to Yonge. The majority of Wanless Park houses either face the park or back onto the Riverview Drive ravine.
