About this property

Welcome to the Lilypad!

This self-contained 1-bedroom unit is located in central Newmarket on the main level of a quaint 125 year old house. Located on a quiet street, minutes walk from historic Main Street (known for its many varied restaurants/bars/cafés/upscale shops/spas), Fairy Lake, farmers market, parks, trails, library, museum, splash pad, pool, tennis courts & more.

Close to the Go Train, Upper Canada Mall & more. Parking & laundry included! Perfect for single professionals, couples, or a family of 3.

You'll enjoy the peaceful setting, surrounded by many historic homes & lush gardens. Reminiscent of a typical Toronto neighbourhood, but without the hubbub of the big city, this is a beautiful place for quiet strolls around the pretty streets. A safe & friendly neighbourhood, old Newmarket is widely known for its wonderful community of inclusive & helpful citizens.

The space:
Definitely not a basement!

The Lilypad is a tranquil space located a five minute walk from bustling Main Street, a quick jaunt from all of Main Street’s amenities, bars, pubs & shops. This space is the perfect balance between small town charm & urban convenience.

This self-contained main-level apartment is only a 15 minute walk from the GO Train station (closer than any hotel!), and only a 20 minute walk from Upper Canada Mall & Southlake Hospital. Perfectly positioned for access to the best parts of Newmarket, in what is considered the most beautiful historic community in the area.

Other things to note:
We’ve included several flyers of excellent services we recommend nearby such as hair salons, massage therapy, spa treatments, bicycle rentals & unique shops.

For stays of a month or longer, a free complimentary cleaning is offered after every 2 weeks.

Unlike a modern hotel, this is an older home, which means sometimes the water can come out brownish briefly for example. These things are normal & safe & are all part of the character & charm of the Lilypad!

Charming Home!

My girlfriend and I stayed here for a week. The location is great! Just a 5 minute walk from historic Main Street. Plenty of restaurants and delightful bakeries nearby. The home itself is very cute and charming. Would absolutely stay here again
