Toronto's most energetic urban village
King West — the stretch of King Street West from Bathurst to Dufferin — is Toronto's answer to Manhattan's Meatpacking District. Former industrial warehouses have been converted into dramatic loft condos, while purpose-built glass towers have filled in the gaps. The result is a high-density, pedestrian-friendly neighbourhood with more restaurants per block than almost anywhere in Canada.
The area is dominated by young professionals, couples, and empty nesters drawn to the lock-and-leave condo lifestyle. The King streetcar puts you at Union Station in 15 minutes, and the upcoming Ontario Line at King-Bathurst will transform transit access even further. Streets like Brant, Mercer, and the Duncan Strip are packed with internationally recognized restaurants.
There are 208 homes for sale in King West today, with a median asking price of $633K. Most are asking between $450K and $1.19M, so the range a buyer actually shops here is about $739K wide.
The most common thing on the market is condo apartments, at 80 of the 208 listings, asking a median of $574K. King West also has 12 condo townhouses, 3 common element condos available, which is worth knowing before you fix on one type.
