Summerhill is one of Midtown Toronto's most charming and walkable neighbourhoods — a village-like community nestled between Rosedale and Deer Park, where tree-lined residential streets meet one of the city's most beloved retail strips. It offers an exceptional quality of life for those who want to be close to everything without sacrificing the peace and quiet of a true neighbourhood.

Anchored by the iconic LCBO at the old Summerhill train station and bordered by Yonge Street to the east and Avenue Road to the west, Summerhill strikes a perfect balance between urban energy and residential calm.

LIVING IN SUMMERHILL

Summerhill's housing stock is a beautiful mix — Victorian and Edwardian detached and semi-detached homes sit alongside modern townhouses and boutique condominium buildings, giving buyers a wide range of options at varying price points. The neighbourhood's architectural character is carefully preserved, giving the streets a timeless, distinct feel that sets it apart from newer developments elsewhere in the city.

The Summerhill strip along Yonge Street is a destination in its own right — home to exceptional independent restaurants, coffee shops, specialty food stores, and everyday conveniences, all within a short walk of most homes in the area. The Summerhill TTC subway station provides fast, direct access to the Financial District and the broader city.

WHO BUYS AND SELLS IN SUMMERHILL

Summerhill attracts a diverse and discerning group of buyers. Young professionals and couples are drawn to the neighbourhood's walkability, lifestyle amenities, and proximity to Rosedale and Yorkville. Upsizing families appreciate the larger detached homes on the quieter residential streets, while downsizers from nearby Rosedale and Forest Hill are drawn to Summerhill's boutique condos and low-maintenance townhomes that keep them close to the neighbourhood they love.

Sellers in Summerhill benefit from a buyer pool that places enormous value on location and lifestyle — two things Summerhill delivers in abundance. Positioning your home to speak to that audience is where smart, targeted marketing makes all the difference.

THE SUMMERHILL MARKET

Summerhill offers strong and consistent demand across all property types. Detached homes typically range from $3M to over $4.5M, while semi-detached homes and townhouses offer a more accessible entry point into this highly desirable pocket of Midtown. Boutique condos in the area attract buyers looking for a premium, low-maintenance lifestyle in one of Toronto's most sought-after addresses.
