A central Scarborough neighbourhood near the Town Centre, with varied housing.
Written by Nick Ntoukas, Toronto realtor · Chestnut Park Real Estate · Updated August 2026
Bendale occupies a central position in Scarborough near the Town Centre and the civic precinct, and it takes in a broad mix of housing — postwar detached homes and bungalows on quiet streets, townhouse complexes, and apartment buildings along the arterials. Thomson Memorial Park and the Highland Creek valley provide substantial green space. The Scarborough Town Centre, the civic centre and the hospital are all close, which makes the area practical for daily life. The subway extension to the Town Centre will change accessibility here significantly.
Postwar detached houses and bungalows; townhouses and apartment buildings.
Families, first-time house buyers, and investors.
The 21 Brimley, 116 Morningside and 129 McCowan buses; the Scarborough subway extension is planned to serve the Town Centre.
The area is large and mixed. Judge the specific street rather than the neighbourhood name.
