Leslieville Condos

Leslieville is a neighbourhood on the eastern side of the Don River, and it is bounded by Coxwell Avenue to the east, Eastern Avenue to the south, Empire Avenue to the west and Gerrard Street to the north. This is a quiet, family oriented, and working-class neighbourhood with a sense of local pride. Its cozy houses, tree lined streets, quaint stores and small independently owned shops make it feel very much like a small village, which is a pleasant surprise considering its proximity to Downtown Toronto.

In recent years, Leslieville has evolved from a working class neighbourhood to a trendy playground of urban professionals. High end lofts, townhomes and new condo developments have begun springing up throughout its borders, making property value and rent spike exponentially.
