Description

Positioned at the confluence of Summerhill, The Annex and Yorkville, The Oaklands is one of midtown Toronto's most coveted buildings - a luxury offering situated within a quiet, tree-lined pocket offering privacy rarely found this close to the city's core. Designed by the esteemed partnership of Macy DuBois and Helga Plumb, the building is an award-winning example of late-stage modernism, defined by strong horizontal lines, clay tile detailing, and a perfect marriage of architecture, light, and landscape. Subtle references to Frank Lloyd Wright are felt rather than stated, giving the building a warmth and permanence that has aged exceptionally well. Suite 337 is a refined two-storey residence offering nearly 1,600 square feet of well-scaled living space, complemented by both a private terrace and balcony. It lives more like a townhome than a condominium, with separation between entertaining and private quarters. The main level is open and inviting. A newly renovated kitchen features Fisher & Paykel appliances, stone countertops, and streamlined cabinetry that flows naturally into the living and dining areas. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring in morning light and open to an east-facing terrace - an ideal spot for coffee, reading, or quiet evenings at home. A discreet powder room and custom built-in millwork complete the level. The lower level is calm and private. The primary suite includes a walk-through dressing area, a spacious ensuite, and direct access to the balcony, shared with a generously sized second bedroom suitable for guests, work, or creative pursuits. A dedicated laundry and storage room, along with a comfortable reading nook, adds day-to-day ease. Thoughtfully updated, Suite 337 offers space, privacy, and architectural integrity - an ideal next chapter for those seeking quality. Set within the Cottingham School District and surrounded by Summerhill's historic streetscapes, 40 Oaklands Avenue remains a quietly significant address with enduring appeal.
