Raspberry Terrace

Raspberry Terrace at a glance

Raspberry Terrace sits in Milton's Ford neighbourhood, a residential pocket defined by its proximity to open space and a quiet, family-oriented rhythm. The street runs as a short cul-de-sac off Martin Street, framed by mature trees and a mix of detached homes and semis. Ford District Park lies directly adjacent, giving the terrace an immediate sense of green. The area feels settled, with sidewalks and driveways that see daily use from morning school runs to evening dog walks. This is a street where neighbours know each other, and the pace is unhurried.

Housing stock on Raspberry

Raspberry Terrace carries a mix of detached homes and semis, with detached units making up the majority. The detached homes are two-storey builds, typically with four bedrooms and three bathrooms, offering between 2,000 and 2,500 square feet of living space. Semis on the street are similar in form, sharing a wall but maintaining generous floor plans. Lots are standard for the area, with front yards that allow for modest landscaping and driveways that accommodate two cars.

The homes here were built in the early 2000s, part of the Ford neighbourhood's development wave. Exteriors are predominantly brick, with some stone accents and a mix of neutral tones. Many properties have finished basements, adding flexibility for growing families. The street's layout as a cul-de-sac means minimal through traffic, and the homes face inward toward a quiet loop. Across the Ford area, detached homes typically trade around $1.23 million, reflecting the neighbourhood's established appeal.

Ford District Park is steps from Raspberry Terrace, offering playgrounds, sports fields, and walking paths. It is the neighbourhood's primary outdoor anchor. For daily errands, Sobeys Milton and Walmart Milton are a short drive away, each about eight to nine minutes by car.

Schools are within a reasonable radius. Craig Kielburger Secondary School, a public high school, is four minutes by car. St. Scholastica Catholic Elementary School is also four minutes away. For commuters, Milton GO Station is ten minutes by car, and Highway 401 at Regional Road 25 is nine minutes from the street. The drive to downtown Toronto takes about 70 minutes via GO and TTC, while Mississauga is 22 minutes by car.

The market right now

Raspberry Terrace trades predominantly in detached homes, with seven sales recorded over the measured window. The typical sale price across the street sits around $1.36M, with detached units clustering around $1.45M. A four-bedroom detached home sold in Q4 2025 near $1.56M, representative of the stronger pricing that emerged in the final quarter; by contrast, Q2 2025 saw activity dip to around $1.13M before prices firmed sharply through Q4 2025, driven by three sales closing at elevated levels. This non-linear trajectory reflects variability in transaction volume and composition across quarters. Days on market average around 85, a measured pace consistent with the upper-mid price tier and the deliberate buyer approach typical of homes in this range.

Lease activity on the street reveals a distinct bifurcation by unit type and size. Four-bedroom detached homes lease around $3,900 to $4,250 per month, while smaller units (one- and two-bedroom) rent in the $1,500 to $1,800 range, typically as basement suites within larger detached properties. Five leases against seven sales over the measurement period imply a gross yield near 3.5% to 4% on four-bedroom units, consistent with owner-occupancy preference. The street currently shows no active listings, indicating that supply has cleared and any incoming demand would face immediate scarcity.

Comparable homes nearby

Across the Ford neighbourhood, comparable detached homes have sold at levels slightly below Raspberry Terrace itself. The typical detached home in the neighbourhood trades around $1.23M, reflecting a broader market than the street's concentration in the upper tier. Year-over-year, neighbourhood prices have held essentially flat, with a minimal decline under 0.3%, suggesting equilibrium after earlier softening. Sold-to-ask ratios in the neighbourhood sit near 0.98, indicating that buyers negotiate modestly from list price but the market typically clears at or very close to asking. Neighbourhood-wide pace runs slightly faster than Raspberry Terrace's own days on market, with comparable detached homes clearing in around 93 days, a difference of approximately eight days that reflects broader inventory depth in the wider Ford area.

Getting around

Raspberry Terrace sits in the Ford neighbourhood, a position that makes the GO line the realistic Toronto commute. The drive to Milton GO Station runs about ten minutes; from there, Union Station is roughly an hour total. For those working in Mississauga, the 401 ramp at Regional Road 25 is the daily handle, reachable in under ten minutes. The street itself is quiet enough that the road network handles the load without through-traffic noise. Pearson is a 30-minute drive, and Oakville or Burlington each run about 20 to 25 minutes. The highway access is the street's real advantage for commuters who need regional reach.

Schools and catchment

Public elementary catchment draws to E.W. Foster Public School, a six-minute drive, and W.I. Dick Middle School, also six minutes. Catholic elementary students attend St. Scholastica Catholic Elementary, walkable from parts of the street at four minutes. Secondary students route to Craig Kielburger Secondary School for the public board, a four-minute drive, or St. Francis Xavier Catholic Secondary School, seven minutes. The catchment mix gives families options depending on board preference, with most schools within a short drive.

Who this street suits

Raspberry Terrace tends to suit families who want a detached home in a quiet cul-de-sac setting without paying the premium of Milton's most central streets. The stock is mostly detached homes from the early 2000s, with a few semis, offering more space than newer infill builds. Buyers here accept a longer drive to the GO station and daily errands in exchange for a quieter block and larger lots. The rental segment is almost entirely unfurnished long-term leases, suggesting anchored tenants rather than transient demand. Lease velocity is moderate, with most units finding tenants within two months. This is a street for households that prioritize square footage and yard space over walkability to transit.

If different priorities matter more

If you're considering alternatives in similar pockets, homes built in the early 2000s with tighter frontage and smaller lots may trade at a lower entry point. For buyers who want closer proximity to the GO station or more walkable amenities, streets nearer to Milton's core tend to command a premium. The Ford neighbourhood itself offers a range of lot sizes and ages, so a different block within the same area might suit a buyer who wants the same school catchment but a different price tier. Exploring streets with more semis or townhomes could also shift the price range downward.
