Baby Point

A small, tightly held enclave above the Humber, with some of the largest houses in the west end.

Written by Nick Ntoukas, Toronto realtor · Chestnut Park Real Estate · Updated August 2026

Baby Point is a compact enclave on high ground above the Humber River, laid out in the twenties as a planned garden suburb and largely unchanged since. The houses are substantial — Tudor and Georgian revival on large lots, with mature trees and curving streets that follow the ridge. It is small, it is quiet, and it trades rarely; in a given year only a handful of houses come to market. There is a residents’ association with a long history and a strong sense of neighbourhood identity. Buyers who want it generally wait for it.
