Roncesvalles / High Park 2005 real estate sales

Roncesvalles Village is becoming increasingly more popular. The shops, cafes and restaurants on Roncesvalles are busy, and the recent renovation of a fruit and vegetable store just south of Garden resulted in a large space with a section devoted to organic produce. The home sales pace in the Village is brisk. The most excitement was caused by several tastefully renovated homes that became available. Open houses were crowded, and multiple offers resulted in some homes selling above asking price.

Following are the statistics on sales in the area in 2005:
