Condo Project Summary
This upcoming condo project in the trendy Annex neighbourhood boasts convenient access to a transit hub, everyday conveniences, and walkability to the University of Toronto.
40 Walmer Road Condos is a pre-construction development in Toronto, northwest of Spadina and Bloor. It will stand 35 storeys high and have 365 residential units from one- to three-bedroom suites.
This high-rise building is well-suited to students, young professionals, and growing families, thanks to incredible walk and transit scores and a much sought-after location in downtown Toronto.
Amenities
40 Walmer Road Condos features a modern design, which aims to match the aesthetic of The Annex neighbourhood with a smooth white tower exterior, red-brick podium, and contemporary dark tones at the ground level.
The residential tower will be 35 storeys tall, offering 365 condo units, including 33 replacement rental units on the second to fifth floors. Of the 332 condo units available, 243 will be one-bedroom, 56 will be two-bedroom, and 33 will be three-bedroom units. All units will sport private balconies offering much-desired outdoor living space.
Residents will enjoy the ample 12,000 sq. ft. indoor and 3,500 sq. ft. outdoor amenity space featured on the first, sixth, and seventh floors. These life-enriching spaces include podium-top terraces that allow for outdoor lounging and dining.
Additionally, two levels of underground parking will provide 44 vehicle spaces (39 for residents and 5 for visitors) and 403 bike spaces (330 long-term and 73 short-term) for residents with easy access to nearby Spadina Station, just a 3-minute walk away.
Location & Neighbourhood
The Annex is an eclectic, vibrant neighbourhood with untouchable cultural cachet and great independent bookstores, cafes, restaurants, and bars. Residents of 40 Walmer Road Condos will live within walking distance of the Royal Ontario Museum, University of Toronto, Yorkville, and Koreatown!
The project location enjoys unbeatable walk and transit scores of 97, which means that this is a walker’s and rider’s paradise. There are also dedicated bike lanes on Bloor that make it safe and fast to travel by bike. Walking down the street, residents can access everyday conveniences like groceries, restaurants, shops, and services. Meanwhile, the effortlessly close Spadina Station offers riders access to the Bloor–Danforth and the Yonge–University subway lines and streetcar and bus routes that make it easy to travel across the city.
The sprawling St. George campus of the University of Toronto starts at the southeast corner of Spadina and Bloor, a short walk away from the condo site. This enormous post-secondary institution is the biggest in downtown Toronto and welcomes over 67,000 students each year. Its nearby presence makes 40 Walmer Rd a prime location for student rentals, which is great news for condo investors!
There’s something for everyone in The Annex. Fantastic and attractive dining options in the area include By The Way (Mediterranean), Chadwick’s Craft Kitchen & Bar, Sushi on Bloor, Jerk King (Caribbean), and Aunty Lucy’s Burgers — among countless other diverse cuisines on offer. Neighbourhood landmarks include BMV Books, Snakes & Lattes Annex, Dream Escape, Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema, and Miles Nadal JCC, which provide plenty to do and see on the weekends. And it’s simple to pick up groceries at Metro, Galleria, or Summerhill Market.
City dwellers can also find urban green spaces nearby, including Jean Sibelius Square, Gwendolyn Macewen Parkette, Huron Street Playground, and Taddle Creek Park. These parks and playgrounds are great for kids and dogs to run around. A little further out but easily reached via public transit is Queen’s Park, a large and historic park featuring many statues, and Christie Pitts Park, which offers sports fields, an outdoor pool, and an ice rink.
The Annex is also a wonderful place to raise a family. Children can attend highly-rated elementary schools such as Huron Street Junior Public School, Palmerston Avenue Junior Public School, Annex Montessori, Taddle Creek Montessori School, or Howlett Academy.
