Baverstock Crescent

Baverstock Crescent is a quiet residential loop in Milton's Clarke neighbourhood. It sits south of Derry Road and west of Thompson Road, a short drive from the 401. The street is lined with mature trees and well-kept lawns. It is primarily a family street, with children visible on sidewalks and in driveways. The crescent shape keeps traffic low and neighbours familiar. This is a street where people stay for years.

Baverstock Crescent is composed almost entirely of townhomes. They are freehold units, typically two-storey, with attached garages and private driveways. Most were built in the early 2000s. The architecture is consistent: brick and vinyl exteriors, pitched roofs, and front-facing windows. Units range from roughly 1,400 to 1,800 square feet. Three-bedroom layouts dominate. Townhomes here trade in the high-$700s to mid-$800s.

The street offers a uniform but not monotonous streetscape. Some homes have updated front doors and modern light fixtures. Others retain original finishes. Landscaping varies from simple grass to perennial gardens. The crescent's curve creates a sense of enclosure. Rear yards are modest but private. A few end units have larger side yards. The overall impression is of a well-maintained, middle-class enclave.

Daily errands are easily managed from Baverstock. A Canadian Superstore is four minutes away by car. Walmart and FreshCo are within a five-minute drive. Milton District Hospital is six minutes away. Several parks are within a short drive, including Centennial Park and Rotary Park, each about six minutes away. Milton Community Park is a ten-minute walk.

Schools are close. Irma Coulson Public School and Tiger Jeet Singh Public School are both five minutes away. Milton District High School is also five minutes. For Catholic families, Bishop P.F. Reding Catholic Secondary School is four minutes. The Milton Muslim Community Centre is six minutes away. Highway 401 is three minutes from the on-ramp at James Snow Parkway. The Milton GO Station is a 14-minute drive.

Baverstock Crescent trades predominantly as townhouse product, with the typical sale settling around $850,000 over recent quarters. A three-bedroom townhouse traded around $850,000 in Q2 2025, representing the recent trade character on the street. The price path has been uneven across the available window. Q3 2024 established a higher baseline near $950,000; the street then softened through Q4 2025 to around $850,000 before edging modestly back toward $875,000 by Q2 2025. This non-linear pattern reflects typical market variability rather than a smooth directional trend.

Days on market average around 119 days, indicating a measured pace relative to broader neighbourhood conditions. With zero active listings currently, supply is constrained; any unit arriving tends to take time to find its buyer. Lease activity is limited, with three-bedroom rentals on the street moving around $3,200 per month. Against the mid-$850,000 sale range, this implies gross yields near 4.5 percent, positioning Baverstock more as owner-occupied terrain than investment rental ground. Townhouse dominance (seven of seven recent trades) underscores the street's residential character; the property type consistency itself signals market stability, as buyer expectations align tightly with available stock.

Across the Clarke neighbourhood, comparable townhouse homes have moved through a broader trade pattern anchored near $850,000. Over the recent twelve-month window, neighbourhood-wide sales have softened slightly, with prices down approximately 4.9 percent year-over-year. Buyer-seller balance leans modestly toward buyers; homes on neighbourhood average sell just under asking, near 98.9 percent of list price, indicating minimal negotiation friction. Neighbourhood pace runs faster than Baverstock's own trade cycle, with comparable townhouses clearing in approximately 89 days. This gap in days-on-market suggests the crescent's longer cycle reflects either its limited current supply, the specific positioning of recent units, or owner expectations that may be slower to adjust than the broader neighbourhood tempo.

Baverstock Crescent sits in the Clarke neighbourhood, a position that makes the 401 the daily handle for most drivers. The on-ramp at James Snow Parkway is three minutes away, putting Mississauga within a 22-minute drive and Pearson within 32. For the Toronto commute, the Milton GO station is a 14-minute drive; the full trip to Union runs around 74 minutes door-to-door. The street itself is a quiet crescent, so the road network handles the load without through-traffic noise. Oakville and Burlington are both reachable in about 20 to 24 minutes by car, making this a practical base for those working across the western GTA.

Public elementary students on Baverstock 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 catchment falls to Milton District High School, a five-minute drive, while Catholic students have Bishop P.F. Reding Catholic Secondary School within four minutes. The proximity to multiple elementary options gives families some flexibility depending on program fit, though the driving distances mean most school runs are car-based rather than walkable.

Baverstock Crescent tends to suit families and couples who want a townhouse in a quiet cul-de-sac setting with strong highway access. The stock is entirely townhouses, which keeps entry prices lower than the detached homes on neighbouring streets. Buyers here accept a car-dependent lifestyle in exchange for a crescent that sees minimal through traffic. The rental market is modest but steady, with three-bedroom units leasing around $3,200, suggesting a mix of owner-occupiers and long-term tenants. For households that prioritize proximity to the 401 and a short drive to grocery stores and parks, Baverstock delivers without the premium of a detached lot.

If a detached home on a larger lot is the priority, Wellwood Terrace trades around $1.7M and offers a different price point and property type. For those seeking a mix of detached and townhouse options, Apple Terrace sits in a similar pocket with homes trading around $1.6M. Both alternatives are within the same Clarke neighbourhood, so the commute and school catchments are comparable. The tradeoff is price and space rather than location. Buyers exploring comparable options might also consider streets with older construction or larger frontages if lot size matters more than being on a crescent.
