About 281 Avenue Road — The Davies Condos
The developers Brandy Lane Homes have boasted the Davies Condos as part of their portfolio since 2018. Not just named after Robertson Davies (even though at 281 Avenue Road they border the park bearing his namesake), the Davies Condos reflects the refinement that made his literature so distinguished.
The Davies Condos mix classic and contemporary design intuitively, thanks to brilliant work by SMV Architects. Facing west towards Avenue road, the 9-storey building’s stonework on its long wraparound balconies feels warm and inviting, especially when illuminated from behind by its expanse of windows.
Conversely, the contemporary aesthetic of the south façade interacts playfully with the natural landscape of its neighbouring park. This is achieved through the building’s stonework, cutting away to reveal long glass on balconies stretching far out into open air, and artfully anchored by a soaring column.
Inside, Lukas Design gave 284 Avenue’s lobby its welcoming warmth — along with 24-hour concierge service. Furthermore, these same designers outfitted the building's extensive array of amenities. On the ground floor, prospective residents will appreciate the Condos’ well-stocked fitness room and a dog washing station, but they will adore the gorgeous parlour called “The Avenue Room” and its attached dining area.
Even more stylish common areas can be found on the rooftop terrace. Its carefully considered layout and furnishings are prepared to host many lively activities. Buyers hunting Toronto condos for sale can easily imagine themselves spending a leisurely day in one of the outdoor reading rooms as well, followed by a lavish night in the rooftop lounge by the wet bar — all with the park and city below as the backdrop.
The Suites
The 44 Toronto condos at 281 Avenue range from approximately 855 to a massive 3,600 square feet. Whether prospective homeowners are single professionals, couples, or raising families, they will all be delighted to call the Davies Condos home.
The developers at Brandy Lane have built their glowing reputation on delivering elegant and sophisticated interiors. As such, all the suites in the Davies Condos are beautiful and spacious, especially since every suite opens onto its own private balcony or terrace and has direct elevator-to-suite access. Moreover, if the engineered hardwood flooring doesn’t feel warm and welcoming enough, every suite also features a fantastic gas fireplace.
For those who love to cook, the kitchens are ready for home chefs. Custom-designed cabinetry from Cameo Kitchens and Caeserstone countertops are great, but the Bosch appliance package is even more irresistible, since it includes a top-of-the-line stainless steel range with a 5 burner gas stove and convection oven.
The Neighbourhood
At 281 Avenue, the building sits in a quiet, residential pocket of Mount Pleasant West between two very lively parts of Toronto.
Yorkville is around a ten-minute walk south of the condos. This neighbourhood’s shopping is world-class with luxury boutiques and shops carrying collections of the best brands and top designers. The restaurants in the area range from indulgent — okay, expensive — steakhouses to some more reasonable local pub fare.
North of the Davies Condos, prospective buyers will adore exploring the burgeoning scene on St. Clair West. Its diverse collection of restaurants, cafes, and bakeries give residents many delicious reasons to go for a stroll.
Transportation
Prospective buyers will love how easy it is to get around the city from 281 Avenue Road. While the closest subway station, Summerhill, is ten minutes away at Yonge Street and Summerhill Avenue, the 5 Avenue bus stops just steps away at Cottingham Street.
As it heads north, the 5 Avenue bus takes passengers to Eglinton Station. Heading south, the 5 can carry residents downtown: it loops at Queen’s Park Circle, passing Museum subway station just before it turns around.
For those who prefer to drive, Avenue moves very well for a major route in the city, and being close to major arteries like Dupont Street and Bloor Avenue is a bonus. When residents need to get from 281 Avenue to a major highway, they can access the Don Valley Parkway in around ten minutes by heading down Rosedale Valley Road to an onramp at Bayview Avenue.
