Wychwood

Wychwood: Once whispered about in hushed tones as Toronto’s best-kept secret, Wychwood is now celebrated as a genuinely fantastic family neighborhood, boasting beautiful homes and leafy streets perfect for stroller navigation. Getting around Toronto is a breeze with convenient access to transit, though you might find yourself ditching the TTC to stroll along St. Clair, popping into its cafes and shops. The heart of Wychwood is Artscape Wychwood Barns, a converted streetcar barn now housing artist lofts, public space, an art gallery, and even a playground where aspiring Picassos can hone their skills. In winter, weather permitting, you might find a skating rink perfect for showing off your best triple axel (or, you know, sipping coffee while watching shinny hockey). Don’t miss the Saturday farmers’ market for a taste of global flavors, from Tibetan momos to that perfect herb and cheese croissant.
