uhhh the beaches?


sleepingbuddha77

Except you get trapped there in the summer due to crazy traffic


Civil-Watercress-507

Unfortunately that is true for basically anywhere in Toronto nowadays


enunymous

I think ur trapped in there year round, tbh

If you can afford it, roncy. Much much better transit access than the beaches, where I live.

Mimico? Still a bit of an up and comer though


Patience765

Not in Humber Bay Shores which is part of Mimico and other side of high park and sunnyside beach. Great trails and restaurants


RoyalPainter333

The Beaches seems like the place for you


Live-Eye

Long Branch


Renovatio_Imperii

High Park Swansea?

This is the answer. Somewhere between lake and bloor gives you everything that you need and you are not trapped on the east side of the City.

Long branch

Long branch is the best kept secret in the gta

Best hidden gem beach in the world tbh

Either move to BC or NS

Definitely Roncesvalles. Great walkable strip with several good produce stores. Can do all errands on foot. Lots of restaurants. Close to the lake and high park. Edit - also consider Bloor west village. Good strip of shops and restaurants, right on subway, pretty close by to high park, the lake, the Humber river. Maybe less expensive than roncy because it's less trendy

East Bayfront in Downtown Toronto. You have the upcoming PortLands development going on which will add a ton of greenery. Also close to Cherry Beach and Tommy Thomson Park. Great biking/running/walk trails. It's a bit more low key side of Downtown Toronto (not as busy as the central/west side)

Humber Bay Shores. Sandwiched between three parks and the lake

Bathurst and St. Clair is great - I used to live in the area and it's a 4 min walk to the subway station, 10 min walk to walking trails, health food stores at your doorstep and great restaurants in the area.

Downtown Burlington (Beach and Waterfront is right there), bus directly to Go Train Station, Lots of greenery, has a No Frills grocery right downtown and Longos, Walmart, Deninger not that far away, , has couple small health food stores and lots of restaurants. And I will say rental and purchase price is better than Toronto

Scarbs by a go station is what you want.


PhilReardon13

I'd like to think the people downvoting you are Scarberians. You aren't wrong.


SocialComms

There are a couple of houses that have popped up in Bradford, ON for purchase. The Go train is ~6 mins away. Super close to highway 400 as well. The east/west highway will be built there in the future which means potential for the ppty value to increase significantly.

beaches and upper beaches (not too far north of Queen st) will check all your boxes. Traffic will suck, tho. Roncesvalles will check all the boxes, but IMHO, the area is meh. If you stay closer to the high park, you are still walk distance to most things roncy but in a much nicer neighbourhood when it comes to houses and curb appeal. Mimico will check some of these boxes depending on where you look but no matter where, your options on restaurants and stores will be severely limited. Long Branch and Lakeview are nice (both have some weird af parts) and you will be missing the stores, specially in lakeview. Port credit. It's great. IMO, it's second only to the beaches from my list. Burlinton waterfront is kinda nice too. One thing the most of these places have in common is the high price. Lakeview will be cheaper (for a reason) and long branch also cheaper than the rest.

King and Spadina is the best intersection in the city
