Broker's Market Note
Uplands is currently a very strong “starter home” market. With prices often $30k–$50k lower than comparable homes in Walsh Acres, it attracts first-time buyers who are willing to do some cosmetic updates (paint, flooring) to build instant equity. The rental market is also strong here due to the proximity to the gentle industrial areas.
While it feels geographically separate because it is north of the Ring Road, the commute times tell a different story. You can be at the Northgate Mall in 3 minutes and Downtown in 10–12 minutes. The physical separation actually benefits residents by reducing through-traffic and noise.
It is the recreational anchor of the neighbourhood. Located on the northern edge of Uplands, Mount Pleasant is famous for having one of the best toboggan hills in the city. In the winter, it also features a speed skating oval, while summer brings busy baseball diamonds and soccer fields right to residents' doorsteps.
Uplands is very convenient for families because the elementary schools are located centrally. M.J. Coldwell School (Public) and St. Gregory School (Catholic) are situated right in the middle of the residential area, meaning most children can walk to class without crossing any major traffic arteries like Broad Street or Ring Road.
Uplands is often a “hidden gem” for value. You can typically find solid 1970s bungalows and bi-levels here for significantly less than similar homes in Rochdale or Walsh Acres. It is an ideal entry point for buyers who want a detached home with a large yard and garage but find the prices in Walsh Acres or Lakeridge out of reach.
