Many of these historic properties have been thoughtfully renovated to include modern, family-friendly layouts while maintaining their original charm.

The neighbourhood is as connected as it is serene. Residents enjoy easy access to the TTC, bike-friendly streets, and an abundance of parks and green spaces that make outdoor living a daily routine. Whether it’s sipping coffee at a neighbourhood café, exploring boutiques along Danforth Avenue, or enjoying a quiet evening stroll, Riverdale offers a lifestyle that seamlessly blends the vibrancy of the city with the comforts of a close-knit community.
