Neighbourhood guide
What it is like to live in Masonville, London
Masonville is where North London shops. CF Masonville Place and the plazas around Richmond Street and Fanshawe Park Road are the neighbourhood’s main feature, and the mall’s bus terminal is the transit hub for the whole north end, with express routes. Around that busy core are quiet, mature residential streets, mostly large family homes with townhomes and small apartment buildings mixed in. About three quarters of households own their home.
Few London neighbourhoods put this much within a short drive. Western University and University Hospital sit at the southern edge, about five minutes away by car. Just to the west, the Medway Valley Heritage Forest has about 10.6 km of trails through a steep, wooded creek valley, with the Museum of Ontario Archaeology and the Elsie Perrin Williams Estate at its edge. That mix draws hospital and university staff, families and downsizers alike.
The trade offs are real. Richmond Street and Fanshawe Park Road see heavy rush hour congestion. The streets closest to Western include student rentals. And the area around the mall is planned to grow taller and denser over the coming years under the City’s Masonville Secondary Plan. Sources also disagree on exactly where Masonville begins and ends, so check the street, not just the name, when you compare listings.

Masonville: common questions
Something else on your mind? Ryan and Paul answer their own phones.
Masonville mixes the busiest shopping district in north London with quiet, mature residential streets. CF Masonville Place is the anchor, Western University and University Hospital are at the southern edge, and the Medway Valley Heritage Forest trails are just to the west.
As of late August 2026 the median list price in Masonville was about $650,000, across 36 active listings. Listings range from older apartment condos to detached homes above $1 million. For a specific street, the honest answer is to look at what has actually sold there recently.
Masonville is in north London, centred on Richmond Street and Fanshawe Park Road. Definitions vary, but it generally runs south toward Windermere Road and Western University, and includes Old Masonville west of Richmond toward Medway Creek.
Elementary options include Masonville Public School, St. Kateri Catholic School and Stoneybrook Public School, with St. Catherine of Siena serving Old Masonville. Public high school students typically attend A.B. Lucas Secondary, and Catholic students attend Mother Teresa Catholic Secondary. Confirm catchment for any address with the board.
Most homes date from the 1960s to the 1990s, after London annexed the farmland in 1961. The streets around the mall mostly came in the 1980s, and new condos and apartments are being added near Masonville Place.
Yes. Both sit at the southern edge of the area, about five minutes by car or ten minutes by bike.
Masonville Place has a bus terminal that acts as the transit hub for London’s north end, including express routes.
Plan on about 15 minutes by car outside rush hour. Richmond Street is one of the most direct routes downtown and gets congested at peak times.
The Masonville Secondary Plan, in effect since 2023, allows taller mixed use buildings around Richmond and Fanshawe Park, up to 22 storeys with bonus zoning. Expect more condos and apartments near the mall over the coming years.
The hamlet was named after Robert Mason, who ran the hotel that housed the local post office and served as postmaster from 1874 to 1881. Before that it was called McMartin’s Corners.
