35 Townhouses Proposed at Manor Hampton Street and Sharon Creek Drive in Sharon
· Sergey Luhavy
A planning application for 35 townhouses near Manor Hampton Street and Sharon Creek Drive is currently under review by the Town of East Gwillimbury. Here is what has been proposed, what stage the application has reached, and what nearby homeowners and buyers should watch next.
Last reviewed: September 17, 2026. Planning applications can change. Confirm the latest status and documents with the Town before making a real estate or renovation decision.
What Is Proposed?
According to the Town of East Gwillimbury, Humphries Planning Group Inc. has submitted Zoning By-law Amendment application ZBA.26.04 and Site Plan application SPA.26.04 for property near Manor Hampton Street and Sharon Creek Drive in Sharon.
The applications propose changing the zoning to Residential Four (R4) with site-specific standards. The related site plan proposes 35 townhouses in three development blocks.
What Stage Is the Application At?
The Town currently lists both applications as under review. A public meeting was held on June 23, 2026 as part of a regular Council meeting. “Under review” is important: it means the proposal should not be described as a completed or build-ready development, and details may still change through the municipal review process.
Residents can review the Town’s application page, public notice, submitted materials and meeting recording through the official source below.
Why This Matters for Sharon Homeowners
A proposal for additional townhouses can be relevant to nearby owners even before a final decision is made. The practical questions are not limited to the number of homes. Owners may want to follow:
- the final building layout, height and setbacks;
- vehicle access, visitor parking and traffic movement;
- landscaping, privacy screening and relationships to neighbouring lots;
- construction timing if the applications are approved;
- whether the approved unit count or design differs from the current proposal.
For a homeowner considering a sale, nearby planning activity becomes part of the property-specific conversation. It does not automatically make a home more or less valuable. The effect depends on the exact location, timing, buyer segment, competing inventory and the final approved design.
What Buyers Should Verify
Buyers considering a property near an active planning application should review the official materials rather than rely only on listing remarks or informal neighbourhood discussion. Useful checks include the current application status, concept plans, public notices, Council materials, title documents and any future approvals or conditions.
A planning proposal is not the same as a final approval, and a final approval is not the same as immediate construction. Keeping those stages separate leads to better decisions.
Sergey’s Local Real Estate Take
Sharon is growing, but real estate values still operate at the property and street level. When pricing a home or comparing two properties, I look at recent sales and active listings first, then consider lot characteristics, condition, upgrades, layout and nearby planning context. Development news is useful when it helps explain a specific property’s future surroundings; it should not be used to make unsupported price predictions.
If you own or are considering a home near Manor Hampton Street or Sharon Creek Drive, I can help you organize the real estate questions to investigate and compare the property with current Sharon market evidence.
