Markland Wood

Bound by the Etobicoke Creek ravine, Markland Wood is a distinctively green community known for its lack of through-traffic and peaceful, wooded environment. The Markland Wood Golf Club circles the perimeter, providing residents with lush views of fairways and mature trees that create a secluded, park-like atmosphere for the entire neighborhood.

The housing is remarkably consistent, largely developed in the 1960s with a focus on solid, well-built detached homes. You will find a variety of spacious layouts including classic side-splits, back-splits, and two-storey Georgian-style houses. These properties sit on generous lots with deep setbacks, contributing to the neighborhood's reputation for having some of the most manicured lawns in the city.

Local amenities are anchored by the Markland Wood Shopping Centre, which offers essential services like a grocery store, pharmacy, and bank. The community is highly active, with a strong residents' association that hosts annual events, further cementing its identity as a tight-knit village within the suburbs. With easy access to the 427 and the airport, it remains a favorite for frequent travelers and families alike.
