THE LEGACY
Nestled in the heart of Burlington’s coveted Millcroft community, The Legacy offers a transformative blend of modern sophistication and timeless natural beauty. Featuring an exclusive collection of grand 50′ and 60′ estate singles, this master-planned community elevates the art of luxurious family living.
Situated amidst the picturesque fairways of Millcroft Golf Course and bordered by Upper Middle Road, Appleby Line, Dundas Street West, and Walkers Line, The Legacy offers a perfect blend of refinement and heritage.
Crafted with unparalleled precision and inspired by Millcroft’s enduring reputation for premium living, Hallett Homes is honoured to continue the tradition of excellence that defines this remarkable neighbourhood.
THE VIBE
Millcroft is an established and prestigious golfing community. It’s impossible not to notice the manicured yards, interesting streetscapes, and tree adorned crescents. In the centre of it all, occupying a good portion of the geography, is the award winning Millcroft Golf Course.
Millcroft is ideal for families who appreciate generously sized homes and properties in an upscale neighbourhood. Enthusiasts, downsizers and retirees can practice their swings and hone putting skills with a pleasant round of golf.
WHAT'S THE MILLCROFT NEIGHBOURHOOD ALL ABOUT
Homes are modern, yet many could benefit from being refreshed. Developed through the late 1980’s to early 2000’s, larger two storey homes on substantial lots with double car garage are the popular choice; although, smaller two storey detached properties can be found. Also plentiful are decent sized bungalows, bungalofts, and single or two storey luxury townhouses ideal for downsizers and retirees.
The centre of sporting, recreational and social activity revolves around the Millcroft Golf Club: a semi-private facility with members and public golfers welcome to enjoy the 5,735 yard, par 70 course. The clubhouse and dining rooms provide outstanding views, excellent meals, and bookings for corporate and private events are accepted. Millcroft Park is the setting for hardball or softball games, tennis courts, and for younger family members, a playground and splash pad.
Shopping plazas and free standing retail, grocery, professional services and eateries line the major boundary streets. An area favourite is the Millcroft Shopping Centre on Appleby Line at Upper Middle Road for just about anything from big box stores to restaurants.
Millcroft has space. Homes where families can interact on game night or find a quiet, private corner just to read a book. Backyards big enough to create your very own vacation destination complete with pool, patio and tiki bar. The tree-lined streets are resplendent with landscaped grounds, and carefully tended lawns. Admire colourful low maintenance container gardens. Privacy, prestige and luxury sum up the attributes of Burlington’s Millcroft neighbourhood.
