Several low and mid-rise Toronto condos along Sheppard are interspersed with single-family homes, maintaining a low density matched with plenty of green space.

Wilmington Park is a great place for outdoor recreation, featuring a swimming pool, a skating rink in the wintertime, tennis and basketball courts, and a baseball diamond. For local groceries and errands, Sheppard Plaza is a convenient spot with a Metro supermarket, Shopper’s Drug Mart, and a selection of eateries. For more dining, Sheppard Avenue offers a range of choices from French dining to classic pizza places. In the area is the Koffler Centre of the Arts, which offers a range of artistic studios, classes, and performances.

Several local bus routes service the neighbourhood of Bathurst Manor with convenient connection to the Yonge-University-Spadina subway line. For drivers, the best way to get around is along Bathurst Street for a direct route to Downtown Toronto and access to Highway 401.
