Apple Terrace

Apple Terrace is a quiet residential cul-de-sac in Milton's Cobban neighbourhood. The street runs a short block, lined with mature trees and well-kept lawns. It sits east of Regional Road 25, within a five-minute drive of the Milton GO Station and Highway 401. The area feels established, with a mix of older homes and newer infill. Families and professionals are drawn to the proximity of parks, schools, and the escarpment conservation lands. Apple Terrace offers a sense of retreat without being remote.

Homes on Apple Terrace are exclusively detached, built in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The builder is not attributed with high confidence, but the stock shows consistent two-storey designs with brick and vinyl exteriors. Typical lot sizes are around 40 by 100 feet. Floor plans offer three to five bedrooms, with main-floor family rooms and attached two-car garages. Trade prices for these homes settle in the low- to mid-$1.4Ms.

The street's housing stock is uniform in era but varied in condition. Many homes have been updated with modern kitchens, hardwood floors, and finished basements. Roofs and windows show a range of ages, reflecting different ownership tenures. Frontages are generous, with driveways that accommodate multiple vehicles. The overall impression is of a solid, mid-century suburban build that has aged well with attentive upkeep.

Apple Terrace is a short drive from several parks, including Kelso Conservation Area and Coates Park, both within six minutes. Rattlesnake Point Conservation and Rotary Park are also close, offering hiking, skiing, and picnic areas. Milton District Hospital is seven minutes away by car. The Milton GO Station is nine minutes away, with regular service to Toronto.

Grocery shopping is convenient with Walmart, FreshCo, and Sobeys all within a seven-minute drive. The Milton Muslim Community Centre is seven minutes away. Several public and Catholic elementary schools are within a five- to eight-minute drive, including E.W. Foster PS and St. Francis Xavier Catholic SS. Highway 401 access at Regional Road 25 is seven minutes away, making commutes to Mississauga and Oakville straightforward.

Apple Terrace trades almost exclusively in detached homes, with five sales recorded against three leases across the available window. The typical detached price sits around the mid-$1.4Ms, and quarterly data shows the street firming meaningfully through the year: the typical trade settled near the low-$1.3Ms in Q1 2026, then moved to the low-$1.6Ms by Q2 2026, a compression of range that suggests buyer demand has absorbed available supply at a steady pace. No price range is available from the recorded sales, which reflects both the small sample and the consistency of the product type; the street's detached homes are relatively uniform in configuration, leaving bedroom count as the clearest differentiator visible in the data. Three-bedroom detached homes anchor the lower end of the lease book at around $3,300 per month, while four- and five-bedroom configurations move toward $3,500 to $3,600 per month, tracking logically against the size premium reflected in sale prices.

With two active listings currently on the street, supply is tight relative to the transaction pace Apple has demonstrated. Days on market average around 117, which is elevated compared to Milton's faster-moving corridors and points to a buyer pool that is selective rather than urgent, likely weighing the Cobban neighbourhood's newer construction profile against a price point that demands deliberation. Three leases against five sales implies a gross lease-to-sale ratio of roughly 3:5; at a typical lease of around $3,300 to $3,600 per month on detached units trading near the mid-$1.4Ms, gross yields calculate to approximately 2.7 to 3.0 percent annually, consistent with owner-occupier demand rather than yield-driven acquisition. The Q2 2026 firming, if sustained, would compress those yields further as sale prices extend while rents hold relatively stable.

Apple Terrace sits in Cobban, a pocket of Milton that trades immediate highway access for a quieter setting. The 401 on-ramp at Regional Road 25 is a seven-minute drive, making Mississauga a 22-minute run and Pearson reachable in just over half an hour. The Milton GO station is nine minutes away by car; the full trip to Union Station runs about 69 minutes. For daily commuters, the drive to Oakville or Burlington stays under 25 minutes. The street itself sees little through traffic, so the road network handles the load without the noise of a busier corridor.

Public elementary students on Apple Terrace draw to E.W. Foster Public School, a five-minute drive, or Sam Sherratt Public School at six minutes. Catholic elementary students attend Guardian Angels Catholic Elementary School, seven minutes away. For secondary, public students attend W.I. Dick Middle School for grades 6-8, then move to Craig Kielburger Secondary School; Catholic secondary is St. Francis Xavier Catholic Secondary School, six minutes by car. The mix of nearby elementary options gives families some flexibility depending on program fit.

Apple Terrace tends to suit families who want a detached home in a quiet cul-de-sac setting without paying a premium for a newer subdivision. The homes here are older, with larger lots than many newer builds, and the street's position in Cobban means good access to parks like Kelso Conservation Area and Coates Park. Buyers accept that the GO station is a nine-minute drive rather than a walk, and that daily errands require a car. The rental side is thin, with a few long-term leases on three- to five-bedroom homes, which signals anchored renters rather than transient demand. This is a street for someone who values space and quiet over walkability.

If walkability to transit matters more, Martin Street offers condo living near the GO station with units trading around $310K. For a similar detached feel but with a shorter commute to Mississauga, Maple Avenue has condos around $410K and a more central position. Both streets trade the larger lot and quiet of Apple Terrace for closer proximity to daily amenities. If a newer build is the priority, look at subdivisions in the northern part of Cobban where homes are from the 2010s rather than the 1990s.
