Living in Wychwood

A major highlight of the area and focal point of the community is Artscape Wychwood Barns. What was once a streetcar maintenance facility has been transformed into a thriving, vibrant centre and park, featuring everything from a farmers market, to beach volleyball, local shops, a theatre, and galleries.

Impressive in scale and construction, the Wychwood (or Carnegie) Library, designed by Eden Smith, is adapted from the Gothic Tudor style. Opened April 15, 1916 it remains a great spot for an afternoon read. There’s also a book club that meets regularly.

If you have a sweet tooth, there are plenty of spots to indulge. Leah’s bakery, owned by Leah Kalish, is famous for the biscotti. For a French take, Pain Perdu serves perfectly flaky mille-feuille. Dutch Dreams is an eclectic neighbourhood institution serving up homemade ice cream for over 25 years.

For finer dining, The Rushton is a stylish but laidback neighbourhood hotspot, with French-inspired food and a friendly atmosphere. The man behind it, Frank Pronesti also owns Market Street Catch, which serves steaks and seafood in a more casual environment. A family favourite since 1993, Ferro Bar & Cafe is known for its tasty traditional Italian food.
