Living in the West End

Most of the housing stock in Belleville’s West End was built during the era of hippies, disco, and pet rocks (1960s-1970s); but with plenty of renovated homes and large lots that give you the option to build additions, this neighbourhood certainly isn’t dated.

Where is the West End?

Bordered by Avondale Road to the west, Sidney Street to the east, Dundas Street West to the south, and Moira Street West to the north, the West End can feel like a neighbourhood within a park. With Centennial Park and Exhibition Park as its anchors and the stunning Zwick’s Park and Waterfront trails only steps away, this area is well known for its greenspace.

The West End Real Estate

Large lot size is a major selling point in the single-family home market, and the West End’s spacious lots provide ample room for outdoor activities and living or future plans to expand a house’s footprint.
