A planned golf-course community at the western edge of the city.
Written by Nick Ntoukas, Toronto realtor · Chestnut Park Real Estate · Updated August 2026
Markland Wood was developed in the sixties around the Markland Wood Golf Club, at the far western edge of Etobicoke against the Mississauga boundary. It is a planned community in the fullest sense — curving streets, consistent house scale, generous lots and a strong residents’ association that has been active in protecting the golf lands from redevelopment. The housing is largely original mid-century detached homes, many updated, with a growing number of rebuilds. It is quiet, green and entirely car-oriented; there is no rapid transit within walking distance.
Mid-century detached houses on generous lots; some newer rebuilds and townhouses.
Families, established households, and buyers seeking space at the city’s edge.
The 111 East Mall and 112 West Mall buses; Kipling station a short drive.
The future of the golf lands has been contested. Ask about any current development proposals.
