Neighbourhood guide
Living in The Beaches
A relaxed lakeside neighbourhood in Toronto's east end built around a long sandy shoreline, a boardwalk and the independent shops of Queen Street East.
Location & boundaries
East of downtown, running from Coxwell Avenue east to Victoria Park Avenue, bounded by Kingston Road to the north and Lake Ontario to the south. Leslieville and the Upper Beaches lie to the west and north.
History
Once wooded marshland with lakeside amusement parks in the early 1900s, the beach was enlarged and made continuous around 1930, and the boardwalk and facilities opened in 1932.
Lifestyle
A family-oriented, village-like area centred on beach and boardwalk life, with a busy summer season and independent Queen Street shops and cafés.
Housing & property types
Mostly semi-detached Victorian and Edwardian houses on the side streets, plus some low-rise apartments and rowhouses.
Shopping & dining
Queen Street East is the main strip, known for independent specialty stores and restaurants rather than chains.
Parks & recreation
A continuous sand beach (Woodbine, Kew, Scarboro and Balmy Beaches) fronts a boardwalk and the Martin Goodman Trail; Kew Gardens is the central park, and Woodbine and Kew-Balmy beaches are Blue Flag certified for swimming.
Schools
Toronto District School Board schools include Malvern Collegiate Institute and Balmy Beach and Kew Beach Junior Public Schools, with Catholic options such as Neil McNeil and Notre Dame (Toronto Catholic District School Board).
Getting around
The 501 Queen streetcar runs along Queen Street East, with the 502/503 Kingston Road and 506 Carlton (Gerrard) cars and buses connecting north to Line 2 stations at Woodbine, Main Street and Coxwell.
Attractions & landmarks
Landmarks include the R.C. Harris Water Treatment Plant, the 1920 Leuty Lifeguard Station and the Beaches International Jazz Festival each July.
Community facilities
The 1916 Carnegie-style Beaches library branch and local recreation facilities serve the area.
Who it may suit
May suit families and outdoors-oriented buyers wanting a beachside neighbourhood with a small-town feel.

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.
