Baverstock Crescent

Baverstock Crescent is a quiet residential loop in the Clarke neighbourhood of north Milton. The street sits east of Ontario Street, just south of the Milton District Hospital and within walking distance of Milton Community Park. It is a short crescent, lined with townhomes and a handful of semi-detached houses. The area feels settled and family-oriented, with mature trees and well-kept lawns. Baverstock offers a calm, suburban rhythm while remaining close to the amenities along Main Street and Thompson Road.

Baverstock Crescent is dominated by townhomes, with a few semi-detached units mixed in. The townhomes are the primary stock, typically three-bedroom, two-storey layouts with attached garages. They trade in the high-$700s to mid-$800s. The street was built in the early 2000s, part of the broader Clarke neighbourhood development. Lot sizes are modest, with narrow frontages and small rear yards. Exteriors are predominantly brick and vinyl siding, with some stone accents on end units.

The homes here share a consistent architectural language: straightforward, functional, and low-maintenance. Roofs are asphalt shingle, driveways are concrete. Many units have been updated with hardwood floors, granite counters, or finished basements. The street feels cohesive, with uniform setbacks and a tidy streetscape. It is a street where families and first-time buyers find a practical entry point into Milton's housing market.

Baverstock Crescent is within a ten-minute walk of Milton Community Park, which offers sports fields, a playground, and walking trails. The Milton District Hospital is a six-minute drive south, and several grocery stores including Canadian Superstore and Walmart are within a five-minute drive. For daily errands, FreshCo and Sobeys are also close by. The street is a three-minute drive from Highway 401 at James Snow Parkway, making commutes to Mississauga or Toronto straightforward.

Several schools serve the area, including Irma Coulson Public School and Milton District High School, both within a five-minute drive. Catholic options such as Bishop P.F. Reding Catholic Secondary School are similarly close. The Milton GO Station is a 14-minute drive, and downtown Toronto is reachable in just over an hour via GO train and TTC. For recreation, Centennial Park and Rotary Park are a short drive away, offering additional green space and sports facilities.

Baverstock Crescent trades almost exclusively in townhouses, and the price signal over the past year tells a clear story of deceleration from a sharper peak. In Q3 2024, the typical townhouse transaction settled near $950,000; by Q2 2025 that figure had pulled back to the high-$850s, and Q3 2025 prints around $850,000. The most recent data point, Q3 2026, lands near $750,000, representing a meaningful step down from the cycle high and suggesting that buyer leverage on Baverstock has increased as the broader Clarke neighbourhood has absorbed more supply. A three-bedroom townhome that traded in Q2 2025 settled around $875,000, illustrative of where the bulk of activity clustered before the most recent softening.

With only one active listing on the street at present, supply is thin on paper, but the 119-day average days on market tells the more informative story: buyers are taking their time, and sellers who have priced ahead of the current range have had to wait. The townhouse format dominates every data point on Baverstock, so bedroom count rather than property type is the primary differentiator within the range. On the lease side, three-bedroom units have been renting around $3,100 per month. Against current sale prices near $750,000, that implies a gross yield in the neighbourhood of 4.8 percent, a figure that sits at the threshold where investor math on the street becomes more conversational. Two leases against seven sales over the window suggests owner-occupiers remain the primary buyer type, with rental activity modest relative to turnover.

Baverstock Crescent sits in the Clarke neighbourhood, close to the 401 on-ramp at James Snow Parkway. A typical drive to Mississauga runs about 22 minutes; Pearson is roughly 32 minutes. Toronto by GO is a longer proposition. The station is a 14-minute drive, and the full trip to Union runs about 74 minutes. For daily commutes to Oakville or Burlington, the drive is under 25 minutes. The street itself is quiet, with no through-traffic, so the road network handles the load without noise.

Public elementary students draw to Irma Coulson Public School or Tiger Jeet Singh Public School, both about a five-minute drive. Catholic elementary students attend Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Elementary School, also five minutes away. For secondary, public students go to Milton District High School, a five-minute drive; Catholic students attend Bishop P.F. Reding Catholic Secondary School, just four minutes away. The proximity to multiple elementary options gives families some flexibility depending on program fit.

Baverstock Crescent tends to suit buyers looking for townhouse living in a quiet, established pocket of Clarke. The stock is entirely townhouses, so households that prefer single-family detached may find the fit tight. The rental market here is quiet. The few recent leases were unfurnished and moved quickly, suggesting a stable tenant base rather than transient demand. Buyers who value highway access over walkability to the GO station will find the tradeoff acceptable. The street works well for families who want a short drive to schools and parks without the busier feel of main arteries.

If you are considering alternatives in similar pockets, homes built in the early 2000s with larger lots can be found nearby. For buyers who prefer detached homes, Wettlaufer Terrace trades around $1.55M, offering a different price point and more square footage. Guelph Line also sees detached homes in the same range. Those who want closer GO station access might look toward streets nearer to Milton GO, though that typically means a busier setting. The tradeoff is between quiet convenience and transit proximity.
