Morrison Overview

Morrison is located in southeast Oakville, set between the neighbourhoods of Old Oakville and Ford.

Stretching along Lakeshore Road to the south and Cornwall Road to the north, Morrison is minutes from downtown Oakville. This gives you easy access to great restaurants, boutique shops, and all the charm of the area’s core.

At the same time, it’s tucked away enough to feel peaceful and private. Commuting is straightforward, with quick access to the QEW and nearby Oakville GO station.

Morrison is all about space, privacy, and luxury. It’s quiet and serene with a mix of families, professionals, and retirees who all value the area’s unique blend of exclusivity and charm.

Morrison is perfect for anyone who values privacy, space, and top-tier living. It’s ideal for families who want to be near great schools, professionals who want a prestigious address, or retirees looking for a peaceful retreat with access to all the best Oakville has to offer. If you’re looking for a neighbourhood that truly feels special, Morrison is hard to beat.

Morrison real estate

Real Estate

Morrison is one of the most expensive neighbourhoods in Oakville. Unlike its neighbour to the east, Ford, there are really no affordable pockets of homes here. Even older homes that are in need of updating are going to sell for an incredibly high price thanks to the reputation of the neighbourhood.

If you are after the most premium areas of Oakville, then put Morrison on your list.

Still with me?

Then let’s take a closer look at what you can get here.

Morrison is known for its large, detached properties, many of which sit on estate-sized lots with mature trees that give you tons of privacy. It’s the kind of place where you’ll find custom-built mansions next to beautifully renovated older homes. The architecture is varied but always high-end, with designs ranging from classic to ultra-modern.

If you’re looking for waterfront views, Morrison has you covered too. Some of the most stunning lakefront homes in Oakville are here, including Chester Hall Mansion, Canada’s most expensive detached home, which sold for a jaw-dropping $59 million. That gives you an idea of the exclusivity of the area.

There are pockets of RELATIVE affordability the further north you go towards Cornwall Road, but keep in mind it will still always be north of around $2.5M…

Morrison Homes for sale
Morrison has become the go-to spot for building your dream home. Like most of South Oakville, it can be considered a neighbourhood that’s slowly transitioning from the original homes to custom builds.
This is tastefully done in Morrison and most of the original homes still remain including a mix of sprawling ranch-style bungalows and original two-storey homes of different sizes and designs.
You of course do have the massive newly built mansions and gated lakefront estates south of Lakeshore, but most of the neighbourhood north of Lakeshore is much more subtle.

For the French Immersion option, students would attend E.J. James located in the heart of Morrison. Graduates would then move onto Oakville Trafalgar for high school.

On the Catholic side, students would attend St. Vincent before moving onto St. Thomas Aquinas for high school.

While Morrison traditionally has highly-ranked schools, you may find that many families opt for private schools here simply because most have the means to do so. However, public schools here are a great option as Oakville has some of the best public schools in the entire province.

Gairloch Gardens

Gairloch Gardens sits right on the shore of Lake Ontario and is a local gem. It used to be a private estate but was gifted to the Town, and now it’s open to everyone. The lake views are amazing, and the gardens are beautifully landscaped with colorful flowers that change throughout the seasons.

If you’re into art, the Oakville Galleries inside the main house showcase contemporary exhibits that are always worth a look. Right nearby, the Municipal Greenhouses are a nice little escape. They’re open year-round, with rotating plant displays, a pond, and even a small waterfall.
