Thorncrest's sweeping, tree-lined streets and expansive lots provide an idyllic backdrop for its varied collection of houses. The original Thorncrest houses include ranch-style bungalows and modernist-style homes from the late 1940's and the 1950's. These houses are gradually being replaced by larger brick and stone executive-style houses.

Thorncrest Village houses are subject to three site-specific zoning by-laws that are the legacy of a former building covenant which was deeded to every Thorncrest property owner. Detailed information on these bylaws can be obtained by phoning the City of Toronto's Etobicoke planning office.
