More About Clairlea-Birchmount Real Estate

Clairlea-Birchmount comprises part of the adjoining neighbourhoods of Clairlea and Birchmount Park, and it’s one of Scarborough’s largest neighbourhoods. Its boundaries are roughly defined as the Canadian Pacific Railway tracks to the south, Birchmount Road to the east, Eglinton Avenue East to the north and Victoria Park Avenue to the west.

Clairlea-Birchmount is an ever-evolving place that continues to grow with its residents. Back in the day, the area was part of a pioneer crossroads village known as Moffat’s Corner.

Today, Clairlea-Birchmount is a diverse, middle-income neighbourhood increasingly popular among young families.
