In and around Caledon - new communities and celebrity visits


As a family that lives and works in the Caledon and Bolton area, we like to stay on top of things that are going on in our community. It helps us stay connected with the people who shape our town’s culture, which is something very important to us.

Caledon is a great place to live. It offers all the attractions of country life, with all the convenience of being just a short commute from the big city. A picturesque and quaint town, living in Caledon offers all the advantages growing families have come to expect thanks to the community’s close proximity to major retailers, top ranked services and amazing entertainment.



Even Canadian celebrities are starting to take note of Caledon’s charm. Pop music icon Shawn Desman’s latest music video, "Dum da dum" was almost entirely shot in Caledon East and even features the video’s stars hammering in a RE/MAX For Sale sign at their property. Apparently someone got the message that the real estate market in Caledon is heating up, and decided to share it with their world-famous friends.

Speaking of the market in Caledon, information was finally released to the public this past week regarding new subdivisions that are in development plans for the Strawberry Fields area. Although final plans and re-zoning have yet to be approved, we are expected to see some major progress in the upcoming months as the town of Caledon attempts to create another great new community for families to live, work and play.

To learn more about new real estate developments in the Peel Region, what’s happening in and around our communities, or if you just want to chat about the market, we want to hear from you. Alternately, if you know of any exciting Caledon news that our readers might like to hear about, feel free to call, email or comment on our blogs. We’d be happy to share the news with all of our clients, colleagues and friends.

Beautiful Bolton - The perfect place to raise a family


Bolton is the most populous community in the Town of Caledon. It is a charming town surrounded by wonderful conservation initiatives and green space for those who love the great outdoors.

Children love living in Bolton thanks to numerous local businesses that cater to active families with young kids. Albion Hills conservation area is also close by, which is the perfect place for long hikes, tobogganing, cross country skiing, fishing, swimming and more.

Considered the urban centre of the town of Caledon, downtown Bolton is home to large retailers, small businesses, cozy restaurants, and excellent services. Everything a busy family needs is right at your fingertips. It’s no wonder that more families are moving from the cities of Brampton and Toronto to settle down in a more child-friendly, quiet community.

Examples of the homes you could live in are these two large homes nestled in Bolton’s affluent South Hill neighbourhood.

The first, located at 14 Oakham Place, consists of approximately 2600 square feet of lovingly maintained space on a quiet court. Boasting gleaming parquet and ceramic flooring throughout, bright common rooms, a functional eat-in kitchen and ample living space, this home is in excellent condition and even features recent upgrades such as updated windows and roof. The large patio overlooking the backyard is the perfect place for sun bathing, hosting family barbeques, or supervising the kids as they play. Click here for more details on this gorgeous Oakham Place home.







A few minute walk away at 16 Sant Farm Drive lies this equally beautiful home on a large 52 foot lot. Also sitting at approximately 2600 square feet, this home features everything a busy family needs to live comfortably including a main floor office, laundry room, eat-in kitchen and formal dining rom. The finished basement with 2 extra bedrooms is the perfect place for accommodating out of town guests or children’s sleepover parties. To learn more about this gorgeous home on Sant Farm Drive, click here.




Both of these homes are new to the market, and offer excellent value for their size, features and location. They surely won’t last long. If you would like a personal introduction to either of these homes, other homes featured on our website, or just want more information about the market in Bolton and surrounding areas, don’t hesitate to pick up the phone and give us a call. We’re always happy to hear from you.
