Features and Amenities
There is an 11-story mixed-use skyscraper at 245 Sheppard Avenue West Condos, including condos and townhomes. There will be 105 apartments in this high-rise structure. Ninety-eight units will be condos, while the remaining 73 will be multi-story townhouses with varied bedroom layouts.
The designs offered by the developers include a sleek and modern combination of brick and glass. The bottom floor of the high-rise building, a mixed-use development, will include a retail space of 442 square meters. For both residents, investors, and guests, the building will include two levels of underground parking.
On paper, it seems like a sleek, contemporary brick and glass building that fits in with the surrounding low-rise neighborhood, but in reality, the design is more traditional.
Many PineLake Group WZMH Architects projects have received LEED certification, which is given to residences built to be ecologically friendly while still operating efficiently.
Location and Neighbourhood
In the last five years, Yonge Street and Sheppard Avenue have seen considerable changes. The area houses in North York upscale condominium communities and office buildings, and the shopping strip has high-end retailers like Whole Foods.
The Yonge Subway Line stops at the Sheppard Subway Station, which links to the east-west Sheppard Line. A three-minute bus ride to the station and easy access to highways make moving around downtown Toronto or the Greater Toronto Area a breeze from this apartment development.
To summarize, North York has it all: the urban conveniences of a central core while only steps away from lush, low-rise neighborhoods with an abundance of green space. Two huge parks separate the development, including the Earl Bales Park and community center, which features a ski and snowboard slope popular with residents in the winter and provides art, cultural, and fitness activities.
The North York Centre for the Arts, where you can see Broadway musicals, plays, and concerts, is just a five-minute drive away from the condominium.
Accessibility and Highlights
The area is well-served by the TTC (trans) in terms of transportation, with an overall score of 86, both the walk score and the transportation score. Due to this, tenants of these condominiums will perform most of their shopping and other daily tasks on foot.
Because of its proximity to Sheppard-Yonge Subway Station, those without cars may quickly go about the city. It will take some minutes for motorists on Hwy 401 to make the transfer.
