What Makes Maple In Vaughan A Top Choice For Homebuyers?
Maple is one of the best-known communities in Vaughan, not only because the community is home to Vaughan City Hall, but also because the charming community is an excellent choice for pretty much anyone looking to settle in the Vaughan area.
Today, Maple is one of the most attractive GTA suburban communities catering mostly to family life and family needs. It is a great place to live with excellent schools, superb amenities, and a variety of housing options. However, Maple also has a rich history that can be traced back to the 19th century when the first families, the Nobles and Ruperts, settled in the area. The community earned the name Maple later on because of the abundance of maple trees growing in the area. Maple started to flourish in the mid-19th century with the construction of the railway in Simcoe, Ontario and Huron, which improved Maple's trade and business relations. Its beginnings in urban housing, however, started somewhat later in the 1960s. Still, its large-scale development is mostly tied to the 1980s, especially after Canada's Wonderland opened its doors in Vaughan in 1981. With more people visiting the area, Vaughan, including Maple, rose in popularity attracting new residents that shaped the community we know today. Here are just a few good reasons why residents love Maple.
Convenient location
Located on the intersection of Major McKenzie Drive and Keele St. only under two miles away from Highway 404, Maple makes commuting very simple, plus with a Go station, residents can also rely on public transportation to get around the area.
Real estate
Consisting mostly of detached homes, Maple attracts a lot of families, but other options like condos and townhomes are also available and are also very sought-after.
Maple Community Center
For fun, games, events and more, Maple residents often go to the Maple Community Center where they can find facilities of all kinds. If they need a venue for either a wedding, party, birthday party, a business/corporate or sports event, they can rent the beautiful premises of the community center open for rentals.
Sports activities
The Maple Community Center also includes a fitness center for all those who want to stay in shape. Indoor and outdoor rinks, which are especially popular during the current holiday season, are also something Maple residents enjoy throughout the winter. The Sports Village (which is 5 minutes away by car) is also one of the go-to places. It pretty much covers everything sports enthusiasts need with hockey, an outdoor sports park, beach volleyball courts, basketball courts, etc.
Parks
Maple has lots of green spaces that provide for a great time outdoors. For example, McKenzie Glen District Park is a great community family park for runs, walks and spending time with the kids who especially enjoy the playground and the splash pad. Picnic tables for rent are also available if you are up for a fun day in the open. The park is well-maintained and kept clean, and many summer events are often hosted there.
