Rentals in Glen Agar, Toronto

Princess-Rosethorn, Etobicoke

Princess-Rosethorn is one of Etobicoke's most prestigious low-density residential neighbourhoods, occupying a quiet pocket between Princess Margaret Boulevard and Islington Avenue in central Etobicoke. Large detached homes on expansive lots, mature canopy trees, and a near-total absence of commercial activity give this neighbourhood an almost rural exclusivity within city limits.

Transit

No subway stations; 64 bus stops provide bus connectivity to Bloor-Danforth and Kipling stations. The neighbourhood's demographics skew heavily toward car ownership, and commute patterns reflect this.

Parks

12 parks serve the neighbourhood, with the Etobicoke Creek ravine system providing additional green corridor access. The park coverage is generous given the neighbourhood's affluent, low-density character.

Dining and Groceries

Amenities are minimal by design: 4 dining options and 3 grocery stores. Residents rely on the Islington Village and Bloor West Village corridors for most food and retail needs.

Schools

8 schools are accessible from the neighbourhood — a high count that reflects its established family character.

Rental Market

Only 4 active listings make this Toronto's thinnest rental market in this batch. The average of $6,100 versus median of $2,600 shows extreme skew from luxury house rentals (the range tops at $17,500). The median is more accurate for most inquiries. The thinness of inventory means renters need to act quickly when units become available.

Who It Suits

Princess-Rosethorn suits affluent families who want one of Etobicoke's quietest, most prestigious residential addresses, strong school access, and extensive parkland. The rental market is extremely thin — this is primarily an ownership neighbourhood where rental opportunities are rare.
