Paxton Place

Overview

Right on the corner of Charles Street East and Church Street, Paxton Place is a 16-storey building with 101 Yonge and Bloor condos for sale and for rent. Built of brick and glass in 1982, the architecture is a tad less remarkable than some of the newer downtown Toronto condos but the time-tested quality of the residences is guaranteed.

Prospective homeowners can expect to find mostly two-bedroom suites, some with dens, all featuring large living areas with a mix of tiled or sanded parquet flooring, upgraded kitchens, bright solariums, and even fireplaces. The building also features an enjoyable and energetic list of amenities including a beautiful rooftop deck. Outside the front door, residents are right on the corner of Church Street within the Yonge and Bloor neighbourhood, an eclectic downtown experience that brings together fun nightlife adventures, boutique shopping, arts and culture venues, and Toronto business bustle.

Most Notable Features

Spacious suites: With only 101 suites across 16 floors, Paxton Place is recognized for very large floor plans. Starting at about 1,300 square-feet, these suites are two to three times more spacious than your average downtown condo, making them an ideal fit for young professional couples and new families.

Time-proven quality: Jubilation Holdings Inc. developed Paxton Place in 1982, offering quality Toronto condos now for over 30 years. All that time has allowed the building to undergo new owner-driven renovations to create unique, upgraded suites. Not to mention, the quality of the residence has the best guarantee of all—the seal of time.

Full indoor pool: Rare for an older Toronto condo, Paxton Place has an exciting and energetic list of amenities including an indoor swimming pool. A great way to stay active, entertain friends, and get to know your neighbours all from the comfort of your own home.
