    The Neighbourhood

    Transit City Condos is surrounded by great local amenities. Shopping is easy with dozens of big box stores near 898 Portage Parkway, plus the colossal SmartCentres Woodbridge on the opposite side of Highway 400.

    For dining out, there are multiple options close to home. They include Via Panini Italian Sandwiches, Gordo's Diner, Botticelli Restaurant, and St. Louis Bar & Grill. Coffee lovers have one of the best sources close by with Balzacs just around the corner.

    Vaughan is a fantastic place to raise families as this is an area where kids can still explore the great outdoors. Boyd Conservation Park provides kilometres of walking trails with beautiful natural scenery. Green spaces are evenly spread throughout residential areas, and there are great schools with athletic facilities nearby. 5 Buttermill Avenue is a somewhat commercial area. But the 9 acres of green space on-site should be plenty.

    And of course, we could hardly mention Vaughan without acknowledging Canada’s Wonderland — arguably Canada's best park for young kids.

    What is the walk score of 5 Buttermill Avenue?

    This property has a walk score of 43, making it easier to get around the neighbourhood with a car. The transit score is much better at 86, offering an impressive public transportation network. Meanwhile, the bike score is decent at 64.

    What is the local real estate market like?

    The neighbourhood of Vaughan Metropolitan Centre does not have a particularly active condo market. However, anyone looking to purchase here will be glad to know they're in buyer territory. Strata.ca data shows that, on average, buyers are paying about 2.5% under the asking price.

    However, the opposite is true for the rental market. It is landlords who have the upper hand with tenants currently paying about 2% above the asking lease price.

    Building Age

    This master-planned condo community was completed in 2020, adding 1,700 much-needed units to the city of Vaughan. Concord built this complex; the same developers behind Toronto's famous CityPlace.

    Transportation

    The Transit City Condos live up to their name by providing incredible access to public transportation. Vaughan Metropolitan Bus Terminal is right outside the building. A subway station with the same namesake is just a 5-minute walk away for easy commuting to the downtown core. The total ride only takes about 50 minutes.

    Motorists, however, have it made. The nearest on-ramp to Highway 400 is only 1 kilometre from the building. As well, there is easy access to the 407 and Highway 7. Even with a little traffic, drivers can make it downtown in roughly 30 to 40 minutes.

    Summary

    Units at 5 Buttermill Avenue are among the most expensive in the area with an average cost per-square-foot of $880. It is the third most expensive out of nine nearby condos. But this property makes up for it by offering world-class amenities, while keeping maintenance fees roughly on par with the neighbourhood average. And with convenient access to public transit, plus its close proximity to Highway 400 — it’s not hard to see why this condo is in high demand all year round.

    Have your heart set on this area, but nothing on the market that interests you? Then be sure to consider 7890 Jane Street, 7895 Jane Street and 10 Honeycrisp Crescent, which are all comparable.
