28 Holloway Road

Set on an extraordinary 60’ x 182’ property in the heart of Islington Village, this storybook English cottage captures the quiet beauty and timeless charm that make this little enclave so desirable.

There is a genuine sense of community here that is hard to find. Neighbours become friends, conversations happen at the end of driveways, children play in front yards and dog owners know each other by name.

Bordered to the north by the prestigious Islington Golf Club, the neighbourhood feels like a peaceful village retreat, with winding tree-lined streets, charming homes and walking distance to Echo Valley Park and its scenic trail system.

Tucked far back from the street beneath a canopy of mature trees, this property offers exceptional privacy and remarkable potential. Whether envisioned as the site of a custom luxury residence, a major renovation and/or addition, or a strategic long-term investment, opportunities of this scale and setting are becoming increasingly difficult to find in West Toronto and Etobicoke!
