Regal Heights
About The Neighbourhood
Due to the size of its lots, Regal Heights is one of the pricier neighbourhoods in and around St. Clair West. Subsequently, it’s primarily home to established families who have been in the area for many years.
Houses are generally larger than those found in neighbouring Wychwood and Davenport Village, and are perched 50 to 75ft. high up on the Davenport Escarpment. Some of these beautiful homes offer the most breathtaking views of Toronto’s downtown and Lake Ontario.
As Regal Heights is situated just west of Wychwood, the two neighbourhoods share many of the same amenities along St. Clair Avenue West, including restaurants and specialty food shops. A few trendier restaurants have also opened up in neighbouring Corso Italia to the west. Corso Italia is a lively, atmosphere-packed area that’s peppered with Italian restaurants and cafés. During large soccer events like the World Cup, die-hard fans arrive in droves so if you’re hoping to get a seat in one of the local establishments, arrive early!
In the coming years, expect to see significant change in the neighbourhood’s commercial mix as St. Clair Avenue West between Oakwood Avenue and Dufferin Street keeps evolving.
