Newmarket homes for sale

A historic Main Street at the centre of York Region

Newmarket's Main Street is one of the best-preserved historic downtowns in York Region, heritage storefronts and older homes on the streets around it, and it gives the town a genuine small-town identity that a lot of its GTA neighbours have built over. Move away from that core and the housing stock gets newer fast, subdivisions built from the 1980s through the 2000s fill most of the rest of the town.

Why it draws families from further south

Newmarket sits north enough that home prices have generally stayed more accessible than Richmond Hill or Aurora immediately to its south, while still keeping the Yonge Street corridor and Highway 404 within easy reach, a combination that's made it a common landing spot for families moving up from Toronto or working further south in York Region.

Who's searching here

Families looking for a detached home with more land for the money than closer-in York Region towns offer, plus buyers specifically drawn to the walkable Main Street core and its independent shops.

Getting around

GO Transit's Barrie line serves Newmarket station, Viva bus rapid transit runs along Yonge Street and Davis Drive, and Highway 404 runs along the town's east side connecting south to the 401 and north toward Barrie.
