Here are five reasons to consider a move to Humber Valley Village…

1) It’s ideal for families

Humber Valley Village may be a suburb, but it’s far from cookie-cutter. This Etobicoke enclave is known for its mature trees, rolling hills, and sense of calm. Its many bungalows and Tudor, Georgian, and Colonial-style houses provide many options for families. Last but not least, highly-reputable schools (like Humber Valley Village Junior Middle School and Richview Collegiate) ensure that local kids get a great education.

2) There’s a beautiful garden to explore

Residents of Humber Valley Village have beautiful James Gardens in their backyard. This botanical oasis features walking paths, rock gardens, and waterfalls. It’s also a great place to see tulips and lush, flowery trees. Whether you explore these 21 acres on foot or take it all in from the historic James Gazebo, you’ll quickly find that James Gardens is an Etobicoke gem.

3) It’s a great place for golf fans

If you’re a golfer, Humber Valley Village is one of the best places to live in the GTA. First, there’s St. George’s Golf and Country Club. This Etobicoke staple is consistently ranked as one of the best places in the world to hit the links. Nearby, you’ll also find scenic Islington Golf Club, which was masterfully designed for true fans of the sport.

4) Getting around is a breeze
