Life west of the Humber River.
For many Toronto residents, the Humber River can represent the 'end of the line' in terms of being considered 'city living' in Toronto. Life west of the Humber; suburbia, perhaps even rural Toronto, could be adjectives used by some to describe life in Toronto's 'west end'. But ... they haven't LIVED here.
       Those of us who've made 'west of the Humber River' our home, either in the old fruit orchard - now known as Sunnylea, or on former Clergy Reserve land - now known as The Kingsway, life couldn't be more idyllic - or more perfect. Why?
       For Sunnylea residents, it's perhaps the charm that makes it so appealing. Mature trees adorn the streets, and Mimico Creek - with its many parks - gently meanders through the neighbourhood. Recreation is abundant with a swimming pool, winter ice arena and outdoor tennis courts. No sidewalks - on purpose - to add to that relaxed feel.
       For residents of The Kingsway, it may be the feel of living in an old English village. Certainly the houses take on the many styles of English architecture. With winding streets throughout - and with street names such as Kingsgarden Road and Queen Mary's Drive - some people may even consider The Kingsway resembling somewhat of an English garden retreat.

The shopping district of Kingsway Village - on Bloor Street West - bisects the two villages. With its coach-lantern street lamps and centre median - complete with distinctive flags and lighted trees - residents enjoy a myriad of speciality shops, bistros, book store, markets, and bakeries. An ample collection of professional services is located here too.
       Schools are excellent throughout both neighbourhoods with public, private, and Catholic elementary, public and Catholic secondary, and Montessori.
       The Humber River Valley, connecting to Toronto's waterfront, boasts numerous Parks (Home Smith Park, Magwood Park, Etienne Brule Park and Kings Mill Park) and the Toronto Humber Yacht Club.
       Most residents are a walking distance to either the Royal York or Old Mill subway stations. Commutes to downtown Toronto are less than 30 minutes; airport commutes range about 20 minutes.
       West of the Humber River. Sunnylea or The Kingsway. Premier addresses, and the two best-kept secrets in Toronto!
       Thinking of moving here? It would be my privilege to show you just what I mean!
