Lytton Park
Lytton Park will greet you with character homes, large lots, manicured gardens, and streets lined with mature trees. This neighbourhood is centred on Lytton Park (where it gets its name), and is well known for its excellent schools.
The homes of Lytton Park were built on large lots, between 1890 and 1930, with mostly Georgian and Tudor architecture. Many of the homes have undergone extensive renovations which have transformed the architecture of the neighbourhood. Doctors, lawyers, stockbrokers and corporate executives make up a majority of the population here. Residents value the quiet, convenience, and easy access to transportation. Downtown is about 15 minutes away, and on-ramps to the 401 are approximately 5 minutes from Lytton Park.
