Roncesvalles is known for its European ambience and small town feel. This neighbourhood is popular with young families who appreciate the convenience of the location just west of downtown. The close proximity to High Park, easy access to public transit, and the Roncesvalles shops and restaurants are also a popular draw.
Roncesvalles's housing stock consists primarily of Victorian and Edwardian detached, semi-detached and attached homes. These include two-storey, two-and-a-half-storey and three-storey homes. These brick homes have many fanciful features including Victorian gables, columned front porches and interior wood trim. Parking ranges from permit street parking to rear laneway parking that may include a garage.
Roncesvalles also has a nice selection of loft conversions, which have recently taken place in former commercial and industrial buildings in pockets of this neighbourhood.
The Roncesvalles Village shopping district along Roncesvalles Avenue has a small town, village feel and most of the shops and restaurants are independently owned, family-run businesses. There is everything from hardware stores to groceries, from corner fruit markets to dry cleaners, from bookstores to clothing stores to flower shops.
With many Polish restaurants, bakeries and delis, Roncesvalles also has restaurants, pubs and bistros catering to many other cultures and tastes, reflecting an increasingly diverse and dynamic local community. |
