Detached homes for sale in Whitby

Detached homes in Whitby suit buyers who want their own yard, more space inside, and a home base that works for both local life and commuting. Many buyers are growing families who want room to spread out, and others are downsizing from larger homes who still want a settled community. Pre-construction means you choose from new designs and finishes, and the homes are scheduled for completion in 2028.

Commuting is one of Whitby's main strengths. Whitby GO, at 1350 Brock Street South, is a stop on the Lakeshore East line, which runs to Union Station in Toronto. Durham Region Transit connects with GO service at the Whitby Station, and Metrolinx has added rush-hour Lakeshore East trips between Whitby GO and Union Station.

For schools, families have several options. The Durham District School Board serves Whitby as the English-language secular public board, and the Durham Catholic District School Board serves as the English-language Catholic board. French-language boards are also available: Conseil scolaire Viamonde (secular) and Conseil scolaire catholique MonAvenir (Catholic). The Durham Catholic District School Board lists 38 elementary schools and seven secondary schools.

Whitby has more than 100 parks with playgrounds, splash pads, picnic areas, tennis courts and sports fields. Lakefront options include Iroquois Beach Park, across from Port Whitby Harbour on Lake Ontario, and Kiwanis Heydenshore Park, which has a beach on the Whitby Shores Waterfront Trail. Whitby Hospital, operated under Lakeridge Health, is at 300 Gordon Street.

Brooklin is one of the neighbourhoods where detached homes are available. Whitby also borders Oshawa and Pickering, so you have more shopping, dining and services within easy reach. Contact us for details on specific communities and floor plans.
