Located in North Toronto and often considered to be Lawrence Park South, the Sherwood Park neighbourhood is a nature lover’s dream. Hidden within the bustle of the urban centre, the park after which the neighbourhood is named has 16 hectares of natural beauty.
Benefits of living in Sherwood Park include a strong residents’ association which gives the community a voice to preserve what they love most about their area.
All of this wonder is within walking distance of a major shopping and entertainment corridor, the Yonge-Eglinton shopping district. The popular upscale fine food emporium, Summerhill Market, has an outlet here and there is also a glorious flower shop across the road.
With total convenience at nature’s doorstep, Sherwood Park is a homeowner’s dream.

Majestic Sherwood Park is the unifying heart of this small and friendly community. On the eastern boundary of the neighbourhood between Mt. Pleasant Rd. and Bayview Ave., Sherwood Park comprises 16 hectares of old-growth forest with trees as old as 150 years. With an off-leash park that attracts residents from all over the city, it’s a dog lover’s dream!
Hiking paths, trails and boardwalks crossing over restricted new-growth areas, a playground with wading pools and a bubbling brook running right through it, are all engaging reasons to buy your new home in Sherwood Park.
Sherwood Park is a neighbourhood within easy reach of the The Granite Club, a family club where generations of members have enriched their lives with sporting pursuits, social and dining gatherings, culture appreciation clubs and a warm atmosphere of traditional family values.
Exclusive and prestigious, Rosedale Golf Club is a private golfing oasis just a short drive away and offers Sherwood Park residents a convenient way to enjoy a round of golf on one of the city’s premier golf courses.
