Highbush, Pickering
Highbush detached homes for sale
Detached houses in Highbush range from 1960s bungalows on deep lots near Sheppard Avenue and Twyn Rivers Drive, through the 1980s and 1990s four-bedroom two-storey houses on Highbush Trail, Woodview Avenue, Pine Grove Avenue and their crescents, to the compact 2000s and 2010s houses on the Altona Road streets north of Finch Avenue. The middle group is the heart of the community: brick two-storeys with garages for two cars, family rooms and finished basements on wide, treed, sometimes pie-shaped lots, and the ones backing onto Altona Forest or the Petticoat Creek ravines are the most sought after in the west end. The older lots draw custom rebuilds. Buyers should check the roof, windows and mechanicals on 1990s houses, septic or well history on any former rural lot along Altona Road, TRCA and tree by-law limits on forest-edge lots, and the survey for irregular lot lines. Well-kept originals with mature landscaping sell to families who plan to stay twenty years.

Questions people ask about Highbush
Which streets in Highbush have forest or ravine lots?
Streets bordering Altona Forest on its Rosebank Road and Altona Road sides, the crescents along the Petticoat Creek ravines south of Finch Avenue, and lots near Twyn Rivers Drive above the Rouge valley. Each falls under TRCA regulation, and a few sit on former private forest parcels with tree-protection agreements registered on title.
Are the older Highbush houses on well and septic?
Municipal water and sewer serve most streets, but a few older properties along Altona Road and the concession stubs began as rural lots and may still carry a well or a septic bed, live or decommissioned. Ask the seller, check the City's records, and budget for a connection if services run past the lot.
How do Highbush houses compare with Amberlea across Rosebank Road?
Highbush lots tend to be larger, more irregular and more treed, with forest and ravine frontage that Amberlea lacks, while Amberlea's grid offers more houses to choose from, a plaza within walking distance and a shorter run to Whites Road. Both feed Dunbarton High School and both are car neighbourhoods; the choice is trees versus convenience.
