Bracondale Hill, also known as Hillcrest, is a neighbourhood located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Annexed by the old City of Toronto in 1909 and developed in 1911 from the Turner estate, Bracondale Hill is in the western end of midtown Toronto and stretches above Davenport Rd. and below St. Clair Ave. The area is home to mostly large early-20th century single family homes surrounding Hillcrest Park that overlooks the city. Many multicultural restaurants and shops are located nearby on St. Clair West to the north and on Davenport Road/Ossington Ave to the south west of the neighbourhood.

Its main commercial shopping area is along St. Clair Avenue. It has several main streets: Bathurst Street, a four-lane arterial road running north-south on the east, St. Clair Avenue an four-lane arterial road with streetcar right-of-way in the middle on the north running east-west and Davenport Road running east-west along the old Lake Iroquois shoreline to the south. In the eastern section at Bathurst and Davenport is the Wychwood Park enclave.
