Norseman Heights

 

Norseman Heights in mid-south Etobicoke was once the model of a “modern” mid century suburb, but today this vibrant neighbourhood is bustling with a new generation of young professionals & families looking for great schools, community centres, safe streets & an easy commute downtown. Here you will enjoy the wide manicured front lawns with private drives,well maintained brick homes on tree lined streets, as well as a variety of parks & greens spaces.

 

The area boundaries are Springbrook Gardens to the north, Islington Ave. to the west, Castlebar Road to the south, and Mimico Creek(northly section)/Royal York Road to the east. Housing styles include a varied selection of bungalows, split-level style homes, 1 ½ storey post-war homes as well as a few newer custom –built homes.

 

There is a distinct shopping district along the west side of Islington that is an easy walk for most who live in the area. There is a reasonable variety of smaller stores, as well as a larger No Frills, bakeries (including the large Dimpflmeier store on Advance Rd), pharmacy, restaurants and coffee shops for most all needs. Just a short distance further south to The Queensway- is Odeon Cineplex and several restaurants on site.

 

The area offers several well regarded public schools: Norseman Junior Middle School serves students from JK to Grade 8- situated in the centre of the community with a large park at the back of the school. Adjoined to the school is a Community School facility (operated by Toronto Parks & Recreation) containing office spaces and a large swimming pool. Here they offer various programs with evening and week-end activities for the community. The highly regarded Etobicoke School of the Arts (ESA)- a free standing arts focused school and Etobicoke Collegiate Insitute (ECI) are both located nearby.

A short commute to downtown via public transit- many homes are walking distance to the Islington subway (or a short bus ride). The Gardiner Expressway and Lakeshore Blvd are a short drive south and accessed directly from Islington for easy access to the Airport or downtown Toronto.
