Where Westbrook is and the feel of it
Westbrook sits on the north-west side of Richmond Hill along Bathurst Street, away from the Yonge bustle. Developed mostly in the 2000s, it has the planned, modern feel of a newer subdivision: wider homes, consistent streetscapes, and parks woven in.
The feel is quiet, residential, and family-first. It is a little more removed than the central neighbourhoods, which is exactly the draw for buyers who want a newer home and calm streets while staying within Richmond Hill.
