Set on a quiet, tree-lined street in a family-favourite pocket of Clarkson, this charming bungalow offers a little of what's getting harder to find: a generous, fully fenced yard, mature trees, and a neighbourhood where neighbours know each other and kids still play outside until the lights come on. Inside, the bright, open-concept main floor features hardwood flooring, a decorative gas fireplace, and an updated kitchen with pot lights, a breakfast bar and walkout access to the deck and backyard. The finished lower level adds valuable living space with a recreation room, three-piece bathroom and plenty of storage. The location is just as appealing. Walk to St. Christopher and White Oaks elementary schools, with Lorne Park and IONA Secondary schools nearby. Clarkson GO offers express service to Union Station, making the commute to downtown Toronto a practical option. Clarkson Village, the community centre, grocery stores, QEW & 407, and everyday amenities are all close at hand. With its large lot, private backyard, extra-long driveway and welcoming neighbourhood feel, this is a lovely place to call home.

Estimated Monthly Budget
Things to Confirm Before Signing
· Are utilities included, or separate?
· How many parking spots are included?
· Is the landlord open to a 1-year or 2-year lease?
· Are pets and small renovations (paint, hooks) allowed?
· When was the last rent increase, if there is a prior tenant?
Utility estimates are approximate and vary by season, habits, and what the landlord includes. Always confirm inclusions with the listing agent.
Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Fairly Priced Rental
At $3,700/mo, this is in line with typical 3-bedroom rents in Mississauga (~$3,500/mo). The rent itself may be firm, but there's often room to negotiate on lease terms — move-in date, appliance inclusions, or parking.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In Mississauga's current market, desirable homes often receive multiple offers within 5-7 days. If you're seriously interested, I recommend booking a showing immediately. However, never let urgency override due diligence - we'll still do proper inspections.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Mississauga are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Starter Home Potential
3 bedrooms works well for couples planning families or small families with one child. Consider whether you might outgrow the space in 5-7 years. If so, factor in potential moving costs when making your decision. Alternatively, some buyers convert a bedroom to an office and make it work long-term.
Mississauga Market Insight
Mississauga continues to mature as a city with its own identity. The LRT expansion, growing downtown core, and Square One development are driving appreciation. Transit access is excellent with MiWay, GO Transit, and soon the Hurontario LRT. Many of my clients find they rarely need to commute to Toronto for entertainment or dining anymore.
