Rathwood detached homes for sale

Detached houses in Rathwood were built mostly between 1960 and 1980 on moderate lots: two-storey colonials, side-splits and bungalows with attached garages, on quiet crescents off Rathburn Road East, Tomken Road and Fieldgate Drive. Rockwood Village, between Dixie Road and Etobicoke Creek around Garnetwood Park and Bough Beeches Park, has the larger houses and lots, and a homeowners' association that has kept an eye on the area since 1997. Because the houses are of a similar age, your inspector should focus on the roof, windows, furnace, electrical panel and any basement finishing done without permits. Original kitchens and bathrooms are common and are where renovation budgets go. Lots that back onto Etobicoke Creek carry conservation authority rules and, in exchange, a ravine outlook. The City's private tree by-law protects the larger trees on the street. Schools, Rockwood Mall, Burnhamthorpe Community Centre and the Transitway are all inside or beside the district.
