Dunbarton, Pickering

Dunbarton detached homes for sale

Detached is nearly all Dunbarton offers, and the spread is wide: pre-war frame houses on the west side of Fairport Road, mid-century bungalows and sidesplits on Bonita Avenue and Appleview Road, 1980s two-storey brick in the north end near Strouds Lane, and the stone-clad custom houses of the last twenty years, some of them very large on lots that run 40 metres deep. When you look at an older house, price in the likelihood that its value is largely in the land and ask what the 1996 guidelines allow on the lot, including the 9 metre height limit. On a newer custom home, verify the builder, the Tarion warranty status if it is under seven years old, and the permits for any secondary suite. On any ravine lot, get the TRCA regulated line. Dunbarton High School, St. Isaac Jogues and Bonita Park are walkable, and the westbound 401 ramp on Kingston Road is minutes away.

Questions people ask about Dunbarton

Are the large custom homes in Dunbarton on municipal services?

Yes. Fairport Road and Strouds Lane were rebuilt to full urban standards with sewers and watermains, which is what triggered the infill wave in the 1990s. Still check on very old houses whether the connection was updated and whether any private drain or septic remnants remain on the property.

What needs checking in a 1920s or 1930s house on Fairport Road?

Knob-and-tube wiring, galvanized plumbing, foundation moisture and insulation are the usual items, and a lender or insurer may ask for an electrical certificate. Also check whether the house appears on the City's heritage register, as 1027 to 1031 Dunbarton Road does, since that affects demolition and alterations.

How private are the lots?

Very, by Pickering standards. Depths of 40 metres or more on the older streets, mature trees and the creek ravine give many houses a country feel, and the City discourages reverse-frontage lots. Newer rebuilds on severed lots are tighter, so walk the property lines and check for easements.
