Nairn Circle

Nairn Circle is a quiet residential loop in Milton's Scott neighbourhood, tucked between Derry Road and the 401 corridor. The street forms a compact crescent of detached and semi-detached homes, with a single point of entry that keeps through traffic at bay. Sam Sherratt Public School sits at the circle's edge, anchoring the block with a daily rhythm of school drop-offs and pickups. The surrounding area is largely built out, with mature trees and established landscaping giving the street a settled feel. Milton District Hospital is a three-minute drive south, and the Milton GO Station lies roughly five minutes east.

Nairn Circle's housing stock is split between detached and semi-detached homes, all built in the early 2000s. Detached units typically offer three to four bedrooms with two-car garages, while semis provide three bedrooms and a single garage. Lot sizes are modest, with frontages around 30 to 40 feet. The street's builder is not attributed with high confidence, but the consistent brick-and-vinyl exterior finishes and two-storey massing suggest a single development phase.

Interior layouts vary: some detached homes feature main-floor dens and second-floor laundry, while semis often include finished basements with separate entrances. Several properties have been updated with hardwood floors and renovated kitchens. The street's compact scale means backyards are private but not expansive. A handful of basement apartments appear in the rental records, reflecting the area's demand for secondary suites. Homes here typically trade in the low- to mid-$1Ms for detached units and around $900,000 for semis.

Daily errands are well served within a five-minute drive. Sobeys Milton and Walmart Milton are both three to four minutes west, and FreshCo Milton is a similar distance. The Milton Muslim Community Centre is three minutes north, and several places of worship are within a short drive. For green space, Willmott Park and Milton Community Park are five to six minutes away by car, while Kelso Conservation Area offers hiking and skiing seven minutes north.

Commuting options are practical. The Milton GO Station is five minutes east, with trains to Toronto Union in about an hour. Highway 401 at Regional Road 25 is four minutes south, providing a direct route to Mississauga in 22 minutes and Pearson in 32. Milton District Hospital is three minutes south, and the town's main commercial strip along Derry Road is within walking distance for some residents.

Nairn Circle has recorded limited resale activity, with four completed sales across detached and semi-detached homes over the observation window. A three-bedroom semi-detached rented around $3,300 per month in early 2026, while a four-bedroom detached leased at $4,000 per month in mid-2025. The street's rental inventory spans two-bedroom basement units in the $1,650 to $1,950 range and larger units between $3,300 and $4,000, reflecting the mixed composition of the street. Two active listings suggest a tight supply environment. Days on market average around 88 days, indicating a measured pace typical of lower-volume streets where buyer-seller alignment takes time to establish. The lease-to-sale ratio of five rentals against four sales points to meaningful investor and rental demand alongside traditional owner-occupancy; three-bedroom and four-bedroom units are commanding lease rates that imply gross yields approaching 3.5 to 4 percent when calculated against comparable detached sale ranges in the broader Scott neighbourhood.

Across the Scott neighbourhood, comparable detached homes have settled near $1.3M in recent trade, with a sample of 134 sales providing a robust read on the wider market. The typical price has remained essentially level year-over-year, holding steady as detached demand across the neighbourhood has held firm. Homes in the area are selling close to asking price; the sold-to-ask ratio of 0.966 indicates buyers paying near list in most transactions, a signal of balanced market conditions without the negotiation room that surfaces in softer periods. Neighbourhood-wide pace runs somewhat faster than Nairn's own days-on-market average, with comparable detached homes clearing in around 106 days; the street's own 88-day average suggests slightly tighter conditions or faster-moving inventory relative to the broader neighbourhood context.

Nairn Circle sits in the Scott neighbourhood, a position that makes the Milton GO station a five-minute drive for the Toronto commute — total time to Union runs around 65 minutes. The 401 on-ramp at Regional Road 25 is four minutes away, a daily handle for those working in Mississauga or Pearson. The street itself is a quiet loop, so the road network handles the load without through-traffic noise. Oakville and Burlington are each a 20-to-25-minute drive, making the broader Halton region accessible without the congestion of busier corridors.

Public elementary catchment falls to Sam Sherratt Public School, situated directly on the circle; Irma Coulson and Tiger Jeet Singh are also within a five-minute drive. Secondary students attend Craig Kielburger Secondary School, about five minutes away. Catholic families draw to Our Lady of Fatima Elementary or St. Scholastica, both within a five-minute drive, with Bishop P.F. Reding Catholic Secondary School four minutes away. The density of nearby schools makes Nairn Circle a convenient address for families at different stages.

Nairn Circle tends to suit families who want a quiet loop with quick access to schools and the GO station. The stock is a mix of detached and semi-detached homes, most built in the early 2000s, which appeals to buyers who prefer established subdivisions over new construction. The rental side is predominantly unfurnished units on 12-month leases, signalling long-term anchored tenants rather than transient demand. For households that value walkability to parks and a short drive to the highway, this street balances suburban calm with commute convenience. The tradeoff is that the circle layout means fewer through routes, so errands typically require a car.

If you're considering alternatives in similar pockets, Wellwood Terrace offers detached homes trading around $1.7M, a step up in price for those seeking a different lot configuration. Martin Street, with mixed properties around $310K, suits buyers prioritizing entry-level pricing or a different mix of housing types. Both are within the same Scott neighbourhood, so the commute and school catchment remain similar while the stock and price point shift.
