Hills of St. Andrew is Aurora's most prestigious residential community.

If you are searching for Hills of St. Andrew homes for sale, you are looking at Aurora luxury real estate at its most established.

About the Hills of St. Andrew Neighbourhood

The Hills of St. Andrew sits on elevated terrain in southeast Aurora, bounded by St. John's Sideroad to the north and Leslie Street to the east. It is one of the few communities in York Region where the housing stock, lot sizes, and streetscape have remained consistently premium for decades.

The neighbourhood takes its name from St. Andrew's College, the respected independent school located directly within its boundaries. The college's campus, with its athletic facilities, heritage buildings, and extensive green space, adds a distinctive character to the area that few residential communities can match.

Development in Hills of St. Andrew happened in phases across the 1980s and 1990s, with significant custom infill continuing into the 2000s. The result is a neighbourhood that feels complete and settled, not transitional. Streets are quiet. Traffic is local. The community identity is established and protective of its character.

Homes in Hills of St. Andrew: What to Expect

This is Aurora's executive tier. The housing stock here is defined by scale, quality, and custom design rather than production building.

  • Lot sizes: typically 60 to 100+ feet wide with deep lots. Privacy and presence are built in.
  • Home size: properties range from 2,800 to 6,000+ square feet, with custom builds on the higher end.
  • Architectural styles: Georgian, Colonial, English Tudor, and transitional designs dominate. Few cookie-cutter finishes.
  • Price range: entry-level in this neighbourhood starts around $1.8M. Premium custom builds on large lots sell from $2.5M to $3.5M+.

Inventory in Hills of St. Andrew is consistently low. When a well-positioned property comes to market, buyer response is strong. This is not a neighbourhood where homes sit. The combination of limited supply and sustained executive-level demand creates a resilient pricing environment.

Schools Serving Hills of St. Andrew

  • St. Andrew's College — private independent school for boys, grades 5 through 12. One of Canada's top college preparatory schools. Located directly in the neighbourhood.
  • Aurora High School and Dr. G.W. Williams Secondary School — Aurora public high schools within the catchment.
  • Aurora Heights Public School and Devins Drive Public School— serve the elementary age catchment.

The proximity to St. Andrew's College is a significant driver of buyer demand. Families who want both private and public school access within walking distance have very limited options in York Region. Hills of St. Andrew delivers both.

Lifestyle, Recreation, and Community

  • Aurora Highlands Golf Club — private golf club within easy reach. A natural extension of the executive lifestyle the neighbourhood attracts.
  • Hwy 404 access — St. John's Sideroad connects directly to 404, putting downtown Toronto within 35 minutes in off-peak conditions. This is a primary draw for GTA executives seeking space without sacrificing access.
  • Trail systems — the neighbourhood connects to Aurora's broader trail network with access to conservation land.
  • Privacy — low through-traffic, established landscaping, and architectural setbacks create a sense of seclusion that is increasingly rare in the York Region market.

Why Buyers Choose Hills of St. Andrew

The buyer profile here is consistent: professionals and executives relocating from Toronto, move-up buyers from other Aurora communities, and GTA buyers seeking more space without leaving the 905 premium tier.

What they are paying for is irreplicable in new construction. The lot sizes do not exist in new developments. The tree canopy takes decades to grow. The privacy, the school access, and the prestige address cannot be manufactured, they have to be earned over time. Hills of St. Andrew has earned them.

For sellers, this neighbourhood commands patient, strategic marketing. The buyer pool is smaller but more serious, and the right presentation and pricing approach consistently produces strong results.
