For professionals working in the Greater Toronto Area, finding the right home often comes down to one word: balance. Balance between city and suburb. Between time spent in traffic and time spent at home. Between affordability and quality of life.
Queensville, a new master-planned community in East Gwillimbury, delivers on all fronts. With its strategic location, seamless access to highways, and growing list of lifestyle-focused amenities, Queensville is fast becoming the ideal home base for GTA professionals who want to commute smarter and live better.
Whether you’re looking for Queensville homes for sale or exploring your options in East Gwillimbury real estate, this blog will help you understand why now is the right time to make your move.
A Location Built for the Everyday Commute
One of Queensville’s greatest advantages is its location. Situated at the intersection of Leslie Street and Queensville Sideroad, the community is just minutes from both Highway 404 and Highway 400. This dual accessibility means that professionals commuting south to Toronto or west toward Vaughan and Mississauga can enjoy a far more direct and reliable route.
The recent announcement and construction of the Bradford Bypass, which will connect Highway 400 to Highway 404 just north of Queensville, adds even more long-term convenience. Once completed, this project is expected to reduce east-west travel time by up to 35 minutes, relieving congestion on regional roads and offering faster commutes across York Region and Simcoe County.
