About Forest Hill
Forest Hill is divided into North and South, with South being the more sought-after of the two. The neighbourhood is famous for its oversized lots, many exceeding 60 feet, that accommodate the grand Georgian, Tudor, and contemporary homes the area is known for. Upper Canada College (UCC) sits right at its heart, and the neighbourhood feeds into Forest Hill CI and several top private schools.
The village core along Spadina Road and Lonsdale Avenue has an almost small-town feel — independent cafés, a butcher, a wine shop, and restaurants where regulars are greeted by name. The Allen Expressway provides fast access to the 401, while the subway is a short bus ride to St. Clair West station.
