New Townhomes in East Gwillimbury (2026 Guide)

Quick answer: East Gwillimbury's new townhome communities are concentrated in Sharon and Queensville along Leslie Street and Green Lane, near the East Gwillimbury GO station and Highway 404. Most new townhomes here are priced well above $600,000. One of the few entry-level options is Walnut Creek by Acorn Developments: 43 back-to-back and rear-lane townhomes in Sharon, from the high $500s, launching Fall 2026.

East Gwillimbury was Canada's fastest-growing municipality in the 2021 Census, up 44.4% from 2016. Most of that growth is new low-rise housing in a handful of villages: Sharon, Queensville, Holland Landing and Mount Albert. If you want a new townhome rather than a resale, this guide covers where the projects are, how they compare and what to check before you register.

Where new townhomes are being built

Sharon

The village around Leslie Street and Green Lane, beside Sharon Creek and the historic Sharon Temple. It is the closest village to East Gwillimbury GO and the Green Lane interchange on Highway 404, which makes it the most commuter-friendly part of town.

Queensville

North of Sharon, around Leslie Street and Queensville Sideroad. Several large builders have been delivering phased townhome and detached communities here, and the new Health & Active Living Plaza (pool, gym, library) is in Queensville.

Holland Landing and Mount Albert

West and east of the core. Mostly detached homes in current projects, with fewer new townhome options.

How to compare new townhome projects

Freehold vs condo (POTL or common elements). Back-to-back and rear-lane towns often carry a monthly common-element fee. Ask for the amount before you sign.
Deposit structure. Compare the total deposit and how it is spread out over time, not just the first cheque.
Occupancy timing. A lower price with a later closing may suit you better than a higher price with an early one, or the reverse.
Closing costs. Development charges, Tarion enrolment and utility hook-ups can be capped or uncapped. Have a real estate lawyer review the agreement.
Commute. Drive the route at rush hour and check the current GO schedule.
