Woodbridge

Woodbridge is the part of Vaughan most people picture first. It grew from a village on the Humber River into a broad community that now spans several distinct pockets, so saying "I want to live in Woodbridge" usually means narrowing things down further — East Woodbridge, West Woodbridge, Islington Woods, Sonoma Heights and the older core each feel different in age, lot size and price. The historic Woodbridge core is an official Heritage Conservation District within Vaughan.

Housing in Woodbridge

• Older detached homes, bungalows and character properties around the historic Woodbridge core, including streets with mature trees and larger established lots.
• Established subdivisions throughout East and West Woodbridge, with housing from several decades rather than one single construction period.
• Larger executive-style homes in pockets such as Islington Woods, along with newer infill and custom construction throughout parts of Woodbridge.
• Townhomes, condominium apartments and mixed-use residential development are also available, particularly around major roads and commercial areas including Woodbridge Avenue and Highway 7.

Everyday life and amenities

• A walkable stretch of shops, cafés and long-running family businesses along Woodbridge Avenue, roughly between Kipling Avenue and Islington Avenue.
• Parkland and trail access along the Humber River.
• Market Lane and Highway 7 corridor for everyday shopping and services.

Getting around and commuting

Woodbridge has convenient access to Highway 400, Highway 407 and Highway 427, depending on which part of the community you live in. York Region Transit serves the major corridors, although many everyday trips in Woodbridge are still most convenient by car.

Who Woodbridge tends to suit

• Buyers looking for an established Vaughan neighbourhood with a wide range of housing ages and styles.
• Buyers looking for larger detached homes or properties with basement, in-law or multi-generational layout potential.
• People who value convenient access to major highways and west-end Vaughan amenities.
• Buyers who like the character of an older village core but still want access to suburban shopping, recreation and services.
