The St.Clair

Tucked away on a tree lined avenue in the <a href="https://strata.ca/toronto/midtown/yonge-and-st-clair">Yonge and St. Clair neighbourhood</a>, The St. Clair is a 14 storey building, home to 226 suites; impressive at first glance, the beige concrete exterior and metallic black window frames are a breath of fresh air from modern glass towers, and the rounded hotel-like drive up and small gardens gives the building a feeling of luxury &mdash; having a chandelier in the lobby never hurts the old prestige either.In addition to a stylish exterior, The St. Clair provides its residents with relaxing and convenient amenities &mdash; gym, party room, games room, meeting room, security guard, concierge, and parking garage.It should be noted, that condos here tend to be on the expensive side when compared to other <a href="https://strata.ca/toronto/midtown/condos-for-sale">midtown Toronto condos for sale</a>, so first time home buyers might want to steer clear. For families, established professionals, and empty nesters &mdash; these condos are ideal.

As a resident of Yonge and St. Clair, you&rsquo;re practically surrounded by restaurants. Within one block of your building, you&rsquo;ll find Cava Restaurant for Spanish cuisine, Midtown Gastro Hub for pub food, Sushi Gen &mdash; which is self explanatory &mdash; and well known chains like Swiss Chalet, Harvey's, Tim Hortons, Pizza Pizza, and Starbucks; also, head east, south, or west, and you&rsquo;ll be inundated with restaurants.For morning coffee &mdash; that&rsquo;s fancier than Tim Hortons or Starbucks &mdash; there&rsquo;s options less than 5 minutes away like JJ Bean Coffee Roasters, Presse Caf&eacute;, La Barista Caf&eacute;, St Clair Coffee Shop, and more. And with coffee in hand, you can stroll to David Balfour Park Trail from a scenic walk beside Yellow Creek; for a longer walk, The Kay Gardner Trail is just north on Yonge, extending for kilometres to the east and west.If you&rsquo;re looking for a spot to grab a drink, you&rsquo;ve got options &mdash; The Jester on Yonge is only a few blocks south on Yonge, likewise, you can head north on Yonge for The Bull: A Firkin Pub, Fionn MacCool's, Kramer's Bar &amp; Grill, and The Wallace Gastropub. And for something really unique &mdash; you can watch a murder mystery while dining on 3 courses at Mysteriously Yours Mystery Dinner Theatre.While by no the means the Eaton Centre, residents can shop at Yonge Eglinton Centre which is just a short bus ride away on Yonge, and can catch the latest Hollywood blockbuster at Cineplex.

Built in 2005, these condos depart a little from modern condo design &mdash; while most buyers have come to accept open concept layouts, neat corners and box like units, many of the units found here have triangularly shaped rooms, or apartment style layouts with enclave kitchens. For buyers who are downsizing from a detached house, these units will feel quite similar, but without hassle of lawn maintenance or shovelling.Prospective buyers can expect to find spacious suites with hardwood floors, updated kitchens with stainless appliances, oversized private terraces, and upgraded bathrooms with marble floors; finishes may vary a little depending the unit, as many have seen some form of personalization over the years.If you love to entertain, then you and your guests will be pleased to know that visitor parking is available, and beyond your lobby doors you&rsquo;ll find a plethora cozy cafes, fantastic restaurants, and charming pubs.

As if it couldn&rsquo;t get any better, 10 Delisle Ave has a 95 Walk Score &mdash; there are countless service based businesses located on or near St. Clair Avenue W, and Sobeys Urban Fresh Balliol is minutes away for groceries, so residents should have no trouble running errands on foot.Those who rely on public transit to get from point A to B, have east and westbound streetcars on St Clair Ave W, north and southbound buses on Yonge, and routes 97 and 320 will take you to Davisville Station for subway service.Car owners can reach the nearest highway by heading north on Yonge to Eglinton, and then east for the Don Valley Parkway, allowing for fast travel to <a href="https://strata.ca/toronto/downtown">downtown Toronto</a> or connections to other highways.

The building is elegant with huge balconies and great light. The location is so perfect; walking distance to everything plus easy transit. A real gem in midtown!
