10 Muirhead Rd, Toronto

Crossroads Condos is a 22 storey tower in North York, offering easy commuter access for car owners in the tranquil Pleasant View neighbourhood. 10 Murihead Rd occupies a significant plot of land beside Highway 404, and is surrounded by green fields and mature trees.

10 Murihead Rd was built in 1974; the brown brick exterior of the structure is reminiscent of older condo architecture, but the property is well maintained.

Residents of this building enjoy excellent amenities: There are tennis and squash courts, a fitness centre, saunas, a concierge service, a swimming pool, and underground parking. Though this building naturally attracts commuters due to its proximity to highways, families and first time buyers who work from home will see the appeal here too.

In total, there are 218 Toronto condos in this building, spread over 22 floors. When it comes to suite sizes, the age of this condo tower is actually a benefit because developers in the 70s sought to create units that were incredibly spacious as opposed to maximizing unit totals. As a result, suites in this residence are incredibly spacious and the smallest floors plans begin at 812 square feet.

Homes at 10 Murihead Rd can be quite modern — many of the suites that have appeared on the market in recent years featured hardwood flooring, stainless steel appliances and stone countertops. Prospective buyers should note that some Toronto condos for sale here could require upgrades.

All suites in this residence have oversized private balconies. Bedrooms are bright and spacious with large closets; master bedrooms have walk-ins.

Pleasant View is a quiet neighbourhood in the North York Area. The neighbourhood is bounded to the north by green spaces and to the south by Sheppard Ave E. The area is mostly made up of winding residential streets, but there are businesses clustered around Sheppard Ave E and Victoria Park Ave.

For dining options, residents will find Tim Hortons on Sheppard for coffee, and there are dine-in restaurants such as Johnny's Hamburger and Paramount Middle Eastern Kitchen. There are additional takeout restaurants just south of Sheppard and many more in surrounding areas.

Residents of Crossroads Condos have a modest selection of stores in their neighbourhood, like Winners and some specialized shops. For more extensive shopping; CF Fairview Mall is located just west of the neighbourhood and hosts many stores for clothing, jewellery, and technology.

Pleasant View Community Centre is located on Van Horne Ave; kids can sign up for programs, or swim in the pool and utilize the athletic facilities. There are sports fields throughout the neighbourhood at local parks, as well as arenas and walking trails.

10 Murihead Rd is a great location for car owners, but it cannot offer a pedestrian lifestyle. Residents will certainly need a vehicle or public transit to run daily errands. Foodland is only a 6 minute drive from the building, but the trip takes over 20 minutes on foot.
