Large family homes from the 1990s, parks along the Rouge River and Berczy Creek, and Highway 404 at the edge of the neighbourhood. Here is what daily life and housing look like in Cachet.
Cachet (pronounced cash-AY) is a north Markham community bounded by 16th Avenue to the south, Major Mackenzie Drive to the north, Highway 404 to the west and Warden Avenue to the east. It was built on former farmland, mostly in the early 1990s, with more homes added through 2001.
Most homes are large detached family houses, with some townhomes and a few low-rise buildings. The Rouge River and Berczy Creek flow through the community, so many streets sit close to parks and green space.
