Holloway Terrace

Holloway Terrace runs through the Scott neighbourhood in north Milton, a quiet residential lane lined with detached homes and townhouses. The street sits within walking distance of Sam Sherratt Public School and a short drive from Milton District Hospital. Its position near Regional Road 25 and Highway 401 makes it practical for commuters heading to Mississauga or Toronto. The terrace is predominantly owner-occupied, with a mix of families and professionals. It is a street that offers suburban calm without being remote.

Holloway Terrace is a short street with a mix of detached homes, a semi-detached, and a townhouse. The detached homes are two-storey builds from the early 2000s, typically with three to four bedrooms and two-car garages. Lot sizes are standard for the area, with frontages around 35 to 40 feet. The semi-detached and townhouse units are slightly smaller, offering three bedrooms and one-car garages. Homes in this pocket trade in the high-$900s to low-$1Ms.

Exterior finishes are consistent across the street: brick and vinyl siding in neutral tones, with asphalt driveways and modest front yards. Several homes have updated kitchens and finished basements, reflecting owner investment. The street's compact size means each property has a distinct character, but the overall aesthetic is cohesive. Mature trees and well-kept lawns contribute to a settled feel.

Daily errands are easily managed from Holloway Terrace. Sobeys Milton is a three-minute drive west, and Walmart and FreshCo are each about four minutes away. Sam Sherratt Public School sits at the end of the street, making it a short walk for elementary students. Milton District Hospital is three minutes by car, and the Milton GO Station is five minutes away for commuters.

Several parks are within a five- to seven-minute drive, including Willmott Park, Milton Community Park, and Velodrome Park. The Milton Muslim Community Centre is three minutes away. For highway access, the on-ramp to Highway 401 at Regional Road 25 is four minutes from the street. The area is well served by schools, with both public and Catholic options nearby.

Holloway Terrace trades infrequently, with four sales and five lease transactions across the available window. The street's thinly traded character means individual units carry outsized influence on patterns; no aggregate sale price can be reliably stated. However, lease activity reveals the rental profile clearly. One-bedroom basement units rented around $1,600 to $1,650 per month, while three and four-bedroom detached homes commanded $3,100 to $3,800 per month. Days on market for sales averaged around 119 days, indicating deliberate buyer evaluation rather than rapid turnover.

Rental demand has anchored the street's use case. Five lease transactions against four sales over the period point to investor and tenant occupancy patterns. A four-bedroom detached unit rented at $3,800 per month in February 2026, while a three-bedroom townhouse moved at $3,100 per month in June 2025, suggesting that three-bedroom and four-bedroom units appeal primarily to the rental market. The one-bedroom basement comps at $1,600 to $1,650 against similarly scarce ownership activity indicate that smaller units on Holloway function within a rental-driven micro-market. With no active listings currently available, the street presents opportunistically for both occupant and investor interest.

Across the Scott neighbourhood, comparable detached homes have settled around $1.3M in recent activity, with a sample of 134 sales providing full statistical weight. The neighbourhood's detached market has held steady year-over-year, moving up marginally by approximately 0.3 percent, reflecting stability rather than momentum. Buyers in the neighbourhood paid around 96.6 percent of ask, indicating modest negotiation room in a balanced buyer-seller environment. Neighbourhood-wide pace runs slower than Holloway's own transactions, with comparable detached homes typically clearing in around 106 days.

Holloway Terrace sits in the Scott neighbourhood, a position that makes the GO line the realistic Toronto commute. A five-minute drive to Milton GO Station puts Union under an hour total. For those working in Mississauga, the 401 ramp at Regional Road 25 is four minutes away, making the drive a straightforward 22-minute run. The street itself is quiet enough that the road network handles the load without through-traffic noise. Pearson is a 32-minute drive, and Oakville and Burlington are within 25 minutes, though these are secondary routes for most residents.

Public catchment falls to Sam Sherratt Public School, which is walkable from the street itself; Catholic elementary students attend Our Lady of Fatima or St. Scholastica, both a five-minute drive. Secondary students draw to Craig Kielburger Secondary School, the dominant public catchment for this part of Scott, also a five-minute drive. Catholic secondary options include Bishop P.F. Reding and St. Kateri Tekakwitha, within four to seven minutes by car. The proximity to multiple elementary schools gives families some flexibility depending on program fit.

Holloway Terrace tends to suit families and long-term renters. The housing stock is a mix of detached homes, a semi, and a townhouse, with recent lease activity dominated by unfurnished units on 12-month terms, signalling anchored tenants rather than transient demand. The street's quiet character and proximity to schools and parks make it a natural fit for households with children. Buyers here accept a slightly slower market pace — homes typically find buyers within a few months — in exchange for a settled, low-turnover street. The rental segment is active but steady, with units leasing within a month on average.

If you're considering alternatives in similar pockets, Martin Street offers a different tradeoff: condos trading around $310K, a lower entry point but a different housing form entirely. For those who want more land or a newer build, the Scott neighbourhood has detached homes that typically settle in the low-$1.3Ms, a step up in price but with larger lots. If walkability to transit is the priority, streets closer to Milton GO Station may suit better, though they tend to carry more through-traffic noise. Each option shifts the balance between space, price, and convenience.
