Condos for Sale in Long Branch, Toronto, ON

This neighbourhood doesn’t garner the same enthusiasm as The Beaches, but it is a beachfront community where growing families can settle down. There are only a few schools in the neighbourhood, but more neighbouring areas. Plus, with Humber College having a campus next door in New Toronto, there are post secondary options here as well.

Lake Shore Blvd can be found in the neighbourhood and its there where most businesses are located; fast food chains, locally owned restaurants, and specialized retail stores. There are a variety of service based businesses in the neighbourhood, from salons to cleaners to daycares to financial services.
