Cliffcrest
Cliffcrest is a neighbourhood in the city of Toronto, more specifically it is located in Scarborough. The neighbourhood runs along Lake Ontario to the South and is bordered by Midland Ave to the West, the CNR Railway to the North and Bellamy Rd to the East. The name Cliffcrest is in reference to the Scarborough Bluffs, which are land formations along the waters edge. The neighbourhood feels much more like being at the cottage than being in Canada's largest and most densely populated city. The Bluffs, which are sandy cliffs, look over both Lake Ontario and the swans and other wildlife that lie below. For a cottage in the city the average value of homes is only middle of the pack, making it affordable by Toronto standards. Most homes are single detached houses with a high ownership rate. There are fewer high or low rise buildings in this area. Schools in the area include: Junior Kindergarten to Grade 6 (Public) Fairmount Jr., 31 Sloley Rd., (416) 396-6240 (Public) H.A. Halbert Jr., 31 McCowan Rd., (416) 396-6300 Junior Kindergarten to Grade 8 (Public) Anson Park PS, 30 MacDuff Cres., (416) 396-6030 Grade 7 to Grade 8 (Public) Bliss Carman Sr., 10 Bellamy Rd., South., (416) 396-6075 Grade 9 to Grade 12 (Public High) R.H.
