About Dovercourt Village

57 Shanly St is nestled in suburbia—far from the stress of downtown Toronto.

But that doesn’t mean you have to go out of your way to find food, fashion and fun.

Here’s how TorontoLife describes the neighbourhood:

Dovercourt Village is a lively nook in the city’s west end that checks every live-shop-play box. Residents are fond of spending their afternoons eating and drinking their way through Koreatown—or…enjoying a day at Christie Pits.

Dovercourt Village serves up a range of delicious cuisine, including Italian, Mexican, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, Ethiopian, and Indian.

The neighbourhood also has a range of retail options.

According to the Toronto Association of Business Improvement Areas (TABIA):

Small but energetic and community-conscious, Dovercourt Village…boasts a concentration of small shops offering a variety of items, from taste-tempting baked goods to fashionable apparel.

For example, Bloor St W is full of independent retailers, including convenience stores, vintage clothing shops, greeting card companies, grocers, and more.

For one-stop shopping, there’s the Galleria mall—a 3-minute drive from 57 Shanly (Vitaly Gariev).

Another advantage of life at Dovercourt Village is its choice of excellent schools.

HoodQ informs:

Dovercourt…has great elementary schools, great secondary schools, elementary special programs, and secondary special programs.

In addition to amazing education, the family-friendly neighbourhood is home to several parks, including the famous Christie Pits.
