Orchard, Burlington

Orchard, Burlington: An Honest Neighbourhood Guide

The Orchard is a family neighbourhood in Burlington's northeast, built in the 1990s on what was once a working orchard farm. Front porches, newer detached homes and Bronte Creek Provincial Park next door give it a close-knit, outdoorsy feel.

Here's the straight version: who it suits, what homes cost, and what to know before you buy or sell.

The Orchard sits in northeast Burlington, generally between Appleby Line to the west, Dundas Street to the north, Upper Middle Road to the south and Bronte Creek Provincial Park to the east. The local MLS® system tracks it as area 352.

What do detached homes in Orchard cost?

Based on ITSO MLS® data for detached homes reported sold from April 1 to September 30, 2026:

Detached homes sold: 20
Median detached sale price: $1,200,000
Burlington median, same period: $1,242,500 (548 detached sales)

Source: ITSO MLS® (Cornerstone board) data, Burlington area 352 (Orchard), detached homes reported sold April 1 – September 30, 2026. ITSO data only; sales listed only on other boards may be missing. Updated monthly.

What that tells us: the Orchard's detached median sat just under the Burlington median, for homes that are newer than in most of the city. Fewer sales than the busiest neighbourhoods means each recent sale matters when pricing.

What kind of homes are in Orchard?

Mostly detached homes from the 1990s and later, many with double garages and front porches, along with townhomes and some newer condos. Homes are generally newer than in central and south Burlington, so buyers often get more modern layouts for the price.

Parks, recreation and things to do

Bronte Creek Provincial Park forms the neighbourhood's eastern edge, with trails along the creek ravine and year-round programs. Inside the neighbourhood, the Orchard Community Park off Sutton Drive and a network of small parks and woodlot paths are steps from most homes.

Shopping on Appleby Line and Dundas Street, including grocery stores, is close by.
