ALDERWOOD

Alderwood offers a quiet, family-friendly neighbourhood feel with the convenience of the city close by.

Tree-lined streets, spacious yards and established parks give Alderwood a relaxed suburban feel, while shops, restaurants and everyday essentials are never far away. With easy access to Long Branch GO, TTC routes, major highways, Sherway Gardens and the Lake Ontario waterfront, Alderwood offers families more room to grow without giving up the convenience of city living.


Long Branch GO Station

Located just south of Alderwood, Long Branch GO Station connects the neighbourhood to downtown Toronto and communities along the Lakeshore West GO line.
The station also connects with local transit, including TTC and MiWay services, making it convenient for travel throughout Toronto and into Mississauga.
Alderwood is also well positioned for drivers, with quick access to the Gardiner Expressway, Highway 427 and the QEW. TTC bus routes along Brown's Line, Horner Avenue and nearby streets connect residents with surrounding neighbourhoods and the subway system.

Alderwood is known for its established residential streets, mature trees and larger lots.
Much of the neighbourhood features post-war detached homes, including bungalows and traditional two-storey houses, along with semi-detached homes. Over the years, renovated properties, custom rebuilds and newer townhomes have added more variety to the neighbourhood while maintaining its predominantly low-rise residential character. Private driveways, garages and generous backyards are common features, making Alderwood particularly appealing to families looking for more space while staying within Toronto.
