Homes for sale near Dunbarton High School

Secondary schools pull from a wide area, so this page uses a 3 km circle around Dunbarton High School on Sheppard Avenue, in Pickering's Woodlands area and lists every home inside it that is for sale today. The count and the middle asking price above come from the same live request to the MLS® feed as the listings themselves.

A word on boundaries: the board sets them, they follow streets rather than distance, and in a growing town they move. Use this list to find candidates, then confirm the assignment for the address with the Durham District School Board, and bring the answer to the Miller team before the offer goes in.

What to check on a home near Dunbarton High School

Proximity to a secondary school is about routine rather than eligibility. A student who can walk or cycle to Dunbarton High School makes the household's mornings simpler and keeps late practices and clubs on the table without a second car. The cost is activity: bell-time traffic on Sheppard Avenue, a bus loop behind some corner lots, and lit fields on game nights. Visit on a school day, not a weekend, and stand on the street at dismissal once. The statistics above count the homes for sale within 3 km as of today and show their middle asking price; the listings below are that inventory, sorted from nearest to farthest.

Questions people ask about homes near Dunbarton High School

If I buy within 3 km, is my child guaranteed a spot at Dunbarton High School?

No guarantee comes with distance. The Durham District School Board assigns each address to a school by boundary, and boundaries are redrawn as neighbourhoods grow. Most homes this close are inside the catchment, but the only safe answer is the board's current map for the specific address, checked before you sign.

What does Dunbarton High School offer?

It is a Durham District School Board secondary school for grades 9 to 12, with about 1,630 students. Program details such as French immersion, specialized courses and before-and-after care change from year to year, so read the school's page on the board site for the current offering.

What part of Pickering is Dunbarton High School in?

Dunbarton High School sits in the part of Pickering that the MLS® files under Woodlands, judging by the listings nearest the school. That guide goes deeper on the streets, the housing stock, the transit and the parks, and the other schools in the same area are linked at the bottom of this page.

Why is a home on the list when it looks far away?

The 3 km circle is a straight line from the school's address. A creek, a rail line or the 401 can put a home inside the circle but well off the walking route. The map link opens centred on the school so you can see the actual route, and the list is ordered nearest first.

How current are these listings?

They are requested from the MLS® feed each time the page loads, together with the counts above, so a sale this morning is gone by the afternoon. To hear about new listings near the school by email, open the map view, set your filters and save the search with alerts on.
