Many Bramalea Woods homes are surrounded by forest and parklands, and the natural landscape continues across Laurelcrest Street, with groves of mature trees, walking trails, and beautiful Parr Lake. Nearby residents enjoy walking the dog, feeding the ducks, or just sitting by the lake and watching the wildlife.

The first homes were built in the late 1960's in the "H" section (streets beginning with the letter "H") on the west side of Dixie Road. Over 100 single-family detached homes of all sizes and descriptions were constructed on huge treed lots. Acres of greenspace surround these homes, allowing the families to enjoy a cottage-like setting right in the heart of the city. They are considered prime properties, offering buyers the best of Brampton.

In the late 1970's up to the mid 1980's, over 200 detached homes were built, mostly two-storey, the majority in the L" section, some bordering on a forest. The homes were built by Wycliffe Homes and other quality builders, many on 75 ft. x 126 ft. lots or larger. Wycliffe Homes is a renowned builder of distinctive family homes of superior quality in choice locations throughout Ontario.

Ten semi-detached homes were built on the north side of Lambeth Street, near Laurelcrest, in the early eighties.

Also around this time, a varied group of attractive homes were built on and surrounding Laurelcrest Street. Some Laurelcrest detached homes back onto Parr Lake, with breathtaking views and acres and acres of walking trails, with many mid-size semi-detached and detached homes nearby. The Grand Finale of Laurelcrest low-rise condominium apartments, on 11 acres of landscaped grounds with an outdoor swimming pool, and 24-hour gatehouse, on the corner of Queen and Laurelcrest Streets, consist of 1- bedroom and 2-bedroom suites, they also are part of the Bramalea Woods residential community.

In 1990, 54 luxury condominium townhomes were built on Lancewood Crescent, near Laurelcrest, some backing onto a forested ravine. The towhhomes on the ravine have two walkouts overlooking the woods, from which you can sit outdoors and enjoy nature's greenscape. There is a sliding-door walkout from the above-ground basement, and a walkout to the balcony from the main floor.

These solidly-built townhomes all have central air and provide luxury and comfort in a serene setting. The condo homeowners live a carefree lifestyle in beautifully maintained, landscaped surroundings. The homes are spacious, ranging from 1300 to 1600 sq. ft., most have 3 bedrooms and 2-1/2 baths, some have 2 bedrooms with their own ensuites. Most have a large master bedroom with a 4-piece ensuite and a walk-in closet, and a family room with a gas fireplace. All of today's most desirable features are here. And, pets are welcome (with some restrictions).

Completing this community, several 2-storey executive  homes were built in 2006 on Hillside Drive and Locksley Place, near Dixie Road.
