Westmount is a stable, mid-century neighbourhood in southwest London developed primarily between 1960 and 1975. Located along Wonderland Road South and Wharncliffe Road South, Westmount features mature tree-lined streets, good-sized lots, and the classic split-level and bi-level homes that define this era of London residential construction. The neighbourhood is conveniently located near Highway 402 access and the growing Southwest London employment and commercial corridor.
Westmount homeowners tend to be long-term residents who have invested significantly in their properties over the years. The neighbourhood has excellent schools, convenient shopping at Westmount Shopping Centre, and a quiet family character that continues to attract buyers looking for solid value in a well-established community.

Westmount's dominant home style is the split-level and back-split, which presents unique renovation opportunities. The partial basement with lower utility level is common in these designs, and many homeowners are choosing full basement development including the finishing of both the lower level and the partial basement section. Kitchens and bathrooms from the 1960s and 1970s in Westmount are prime renovation targets — often retaining original cabinets, fixtures, and tile that are well beyond their design life. Open-concept kitchen/dining conversions are the most popular project type.
