With almost half the neighbourhood being dominated by the Peel and Brampton golf courses, Peel Village is a perfectly planned residential community south of the downtown Brampton core. It stands out for its mature tree-lined streets, manicured gardens, privacy and stately detached homes, with Main Street South and Kennedy Road South bordering its west and east boundaries, respectively.
In the 1920s, Peel Village was the site of a prosperous dairy farm, famous for its Jersey cows. Part of this farm was used as an apple orchard, with many of the original trees still bearing fruit in yards of residents today. The presence of golfing greens, mature trees and the Charles F. Watson Gardens makes one feel like they are entering a residential area within a conservation park.
Despite being a quiet, private and homey neighbourhood, Peel Village Parkway is minutes away from the shopping, entertainment and retail life of the city. Residents can chose between spending a day in the neighbourhood shopping mall, picnicking in the beautiful gardens or golfing in one of the two sprawling golf courses in the middle of the city, and proximity to downtown Brampton opens up more options.
The Peel Village neighbourhood is a diverse and vibrant community that is made rich by the presence of the largest group of ethnic minorities in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). The residents of the Peel Village area are affluent first-time homebuyers, as well as professionals, and growing families with retirees.
With Shoppers World located conveniently close to this neighbourhood, most of the area residents gravitate towards it for their daily requirements. Downtown Brampton is a 10-minute drive away, which is an added bonus for young singles and professionals. Grocery markets, ethnic restaurants, garden centres, banking options, transport facilities, schools and offices are all located within a short walk or drive away along the Main Street and Kennedy Road arteries.
Peel Villagers are well served by the close proximity of the Brampton Transit bus stop located at the Shoppers World terminal. Commuters have access to the GTA using highways 410, 407, 401, Go Transit or the Zum bus rapid transit. The most covetous transport feature of Peel Village is its closeness to the Lester Pearson International Airport, which is a hassle-free short drive away.
Living in Peel Village is a blessing and a curse from the point of view of the airport’s location, as majority of this community is affected by high levels of aircraft noise. While real estate addresses in Peel Village are luxurious, green, friendly, colourful and highly desirable, they may stand to lose out on account of the 24-hour noise pollution from the landing aircrafts.
Homes in this neighbourhood fall within the mid-level to luxury categories, with prices ranging from upwards of $500,000 to $1 million. Dining for two can be comfortably squared off at an average of $50, while more expensive and exclusive restaurant choices are also available. Living costs are slightly less than those in Toronto.
