Imagine living among some of this city's best ethnic restaurants, shops and boutiques, all within walking distance of your new contemporary home. Welcome to Quebec + 16th in the Mount Pleasant neighbourhood one which is minutes away from one of the city's liveliest, cosmopolitan district, the Main Street corridor.
Award-winning Handmade Contemporary Homes offers an exclusive collection of 10 three-level walk-ups townhomes, ranging from just over 1,000 to nearly 1,300 square feet. Inspired by the trendy site's revitalization, this boutique building infuses crystal white brick, glass railings on the balconies and windows with wood doors, giving it a unique presence within the neighbourhood, located on the northwest corner of Quebec and 16th Ave.
Each spacious, open-concept interior features contemporary engineered hardwood floors, full-size Liebherr and Porter & Charles stainless steel appliances with integrated fridge and stove, lots of expansive windows and wool blend carpets in hallways and bedrooms. This exclusive selection of mostly three-bedroom townhomes (there is a single two-bedroom residence), start from the low $700,000s and go up to $900,000s.
Working with two other well respected companies - Cornerstone Architecture and interior design by Theresa Yoon - these distinctive residences include their own private large roof deck patios with concrete tiles and gardens - some as large as nearly 380 square feet.
"Aside from the beautiful aesthetics of the building, there is an abundance of useable outdoor space. If you added up the patios, decks and rooftop gardens, they are equivalent to 40-60 per cent of the overall interior square footage of each home, which is unheard of. Residents will be entertaining with friends and family and inviting their guests 'up for drinks' as opposed to 'out' for drinks," says Matthew Lee, responsible for the sales and marketing at Macdonald Realty Ltd. Each home also comes with its own underground parking spot, a storage locker and there's even a dog-washing shower in the parkade, so Fido doesn't have to traipse dirt through your home.
Quebec + 16th is a great opportunity for urban professionals and move-up buyers with growing families looking for that elusive "third bedroom" in this sought-after funky, eclectic neighbourhood. Main Street is home to local artists, vintage merchants, and arguably some of the city's best coffee houses and eateries, all within a fascinating tangle of new and old. The street's eclectic pulse attracts foodies, shopoholics, antiques buffs and youthful urbanites alike. Its comparisons to New York City's Lower East Side suggests a lively community of diverse cultures one that Main Street lives up to.
Quebec + 16th is also centrally located close to the bike paths and next to the Ontario Bike Way. For the outdoor enthusiast, you are less than two kilometers from Athlete's Village and seawall, which links you to parks, the Creek Side community centre and Science World. Lace up your runners and head out to the newly constructed Mount Pleasant Community Centre, which is equipped with a day care, library, full gym and more, or meander to the redeveloped Mount Pleasant Park, which is truly an oasis in the heart of the city.
Quebec + 16th is everything you would expect from a developer with three decades of experience building quality detached and multi-family projects. When it comes to quality of your new home, you don't want to compromise on anything.
Completion is slated for late summer/early fall 2015. For more information or to register, visit www.q16.ca, email at info@q16.ca or call Matthew Lee at 604-263-8090.
