1480 Britannia Rd Townhomes1480 Britannia Road W, Mississauga, ON L5V 2K4

Completed in 2010, the 100 townhomes at 1480 Britannia Road West are in Mississauga's East Credit community, north of Highway 401's Mavis interchange. The complex is one of the newer townhouse developments in the neighbourhood, built on Britannia Road near the Credit River valley and the River Grove community.

All homes are three-bedroom, two-storey townhouses, with sizes from about 1,300 to 2,000 square feet depending on the model. The larger plans offer the kind of space usually found in semi-detached homes, and the complex's age means kitchens, windows and mechanical systems are generally more modern than in the area's 1980s and 1990s townhouses. Families with school-age children and buyers moving up from a condo apartment make up much of the market. A shared barbecue area and guest parking are provided, and pets are allowed under the corporation's rules.

Peel Condominium Corporation 592 is managed by Orion Property Management. At fifteen years old, the complex is approaching its first round of major exterior work; the reserve study will show when roofs and windows are expected to be replaced and whether the fund is on track.

River Grove Park and the River Grove Community Centre, with its pool and fitness facilities, are about a kilometre away, and the river valley's trail network is close for walks and cycling. For errands, Shiv Convenience, JVD Supermarket and Evan's Variety are nearby, and Offside Sports Bar & Grill is a local hangout. Heartland Town Centre's big-box stores and restaurants are a short drive. Highways 401, 403 and 410 are all close, and Streetsville GO serves train commuters.
