Brockton Village Homes & Real Estate

First settled by Irish immigrants in the early 1800s, Brockton was incorporated as a village in 1881 and amalgamated with Toronto in 1884. Today, this quiet, unassuming west downtown neighbourhood encompasses the area from High Park in the west to Dufferin Street in the east, and south from Bloor Street West along Queen Street, Roncesvalles Avenue and Dundas Street.

Brockton Village homes are typically tall, neatly aligned row houses and semis, often with pointed third-story rooflines, painted brickwork, and classical pillared front verandahs. A walk through the neighbourhood reveals the charm and character of domestic urban architecture from a century ago.

Long overlooked by home buyers and investors, Brockton homes are attracting more interest as the availability of affordable homes with easy access to downtown diminishes. Prices remain reasonable for first-home buyers — particularly for those prepared to invest in some updating of an older home, in preference to a newer suburban home with lengthy commute into the city.

Easy access to the mid-town and downtown commercial and entertainment districts and workplaces of the city — by car or by public transport — is another reason for considering Brockton Village homes.
