History

Developed from farmland owned by the Ridout family and architect John Howard and annexed to Toronto in stages between 1883 and 1893. St. Casimir's Church (built 1944–54) marked the arrival of the Polish community, which remains central to the area's identity.

Mostly Victorian and American Foursquare houses built between about 1900 and the 1930s, some later divided into apartments.

Shopping & dining

Roncesvalles Avenue is a walkable strip of independent bakeries, delis, cafés, restaurants and specialty shops, including Polish delicatessens.

Buying a home in Roncesvalles

In Ontario, most resale house offers go firm quickly in competitive markets, so line up financing and consider a pre-offer inspection. Your lawyer will search title, check for work orders and permits, and confirm the property's zoning.

Budget for Ontario's land transfer tax on top of the price; purchases in the City of Toronto also pay a separate municipal land transfer tax. First-time buyers may qualify for refunds on both.
