Why We Love 745 Farmstead Dr

Rachel Currey May 23, 2026

Every once in a while a property redefines expectations for executive townhouse living. Tucked into Milton's sought-after Willmott neighbourhood, Unit 21 at 745 Farmstead Drive is a beautifully landscaped corner-lot end unit backing onto tranquil green space, with the light, privacy and room usually reserved for large detached homes. Here are the five features that made us fall for it, and even if this one has sold by the time you read this, they double as a checklist for what to hunt in any end-unit townhome.

Hunting for an end unit of your own, in the west end or beyond? Start your search here.

1. A sun-drenched open concept main floor

End units earn their premium at the windows, and this one proves it: extra side glazing pours natural light across the main floor, and nine foot ceilings, crisp white walls and pot lighting keep everything bright and airy. Premium hardwood runs seamlessly through the cooking, dining and unwinding zones. First impressions matter, and this one lands.

2. A modern kitchen with a view

The heart of the home comes fully equipped: full-sized stainless appliances, granite counters, a double sink and genuinely generous prep space. It's a kitchen designed for people who actually cook, positioned so the view works while you do.

3. An extended deck and backyard oasis

Through the French doors waits the feature that separates this home from the pack: an extended rear deck with uninterrupted views of the ravine and one majestic willow. A motorized awning handles the hot afternoons, stairs lead to a stamped concrete patio wrapping the entire home, and with gas lines on both levels and exterior pot lights all around, the yard is built for entertaining, not just admiring.

4. A luxurious primary retreat

The upper-level primary suite reads like a hotel room you'd extend your stay for: two large windows with peaceful views, a separate sitting area made for reading, a spacious walk-in closet, and a four piece ensuite with a deep soaker tub and separate glass shower. Two more spacious bedrooms, another full bathroom and two linen closets round out the level.

5. A stunning finished walkout basement

The finished walkout lower level adds the versatility that makes townhomes live large: a second set of French doors opening to the lower patio, an open recreation space ready to become office, gym or media lounge, plus a sleek fourth bathroom, laundry sink, and full-size stacked Electrolux washer and dryer.

The bottom line

Corner-lot end units backing onto green space are rare in any market, and at the time of writing this spring, this one was freshly listed. Homes with this combination don't wait around, but they do teach a lesson: when you see light, privacy and a walkout in the same townhome, move quickly.
