Landscaping in Cliffside, Scarborough

Cliffside runs south from Kingston Road to the top of the Bluffs in southwest Scarborough, between Birchmount Road and Midland Avenue. The mix is postwar bungalows and two-storey homes, with infill builds and renovated houses replacing older stock on some blocks. Lots are mid-sized, and the sandy-clay soil drains better here than on the inland clay further north, though lots near the bluff edge need attention to runoff. A fair bit of our work in Cliffside is updating older yards: fresh sod, reshaped beds, new interlocking walkways and driveways, and fall cleanups. Weekly lawn care and snow clearing on seasonal contracts round it out.

About Cliffside

Cliffside is a neighbourhood right on the edge of the Scarborough Bluffs, featuring a mix of mid-century homes and newer executive residences. The area is known for its wide lots and views of Lake Ontario, which heavily influence local landscaping choices. Residents often seek designs that maximize their views while providing privacy and wind protection from the lake.

What we see in Cliffside yards

Cliffside properties benefit from strategic curb appeal improvements. A new interlock walkway and fresh sod can increase perceived property value by 10-15%. We recommend starting with the front yard for maximum impact.
