TORONTO
FOREST HILL
Forest Hill is one of Toronto’s most prestigious neighbourhoods. It is surrounded by some of the city’s most wealthiest people and upscale private residences. While enclosed by similar neighbourhoods like The Annex, Forest Hill’s schools are some of the best in the country. The area is considered one of the most charming in the city with winding roads, sloping hills, mansions and parks. The feeling here is a truly intimate and quiet one with all the perks of being footsteps away from the historic Forest Hill Village and a 5-minute walk to St. Clair West Subway Station.
