About 215 Queen Street W — Smart House Condos
Situated where the stylish Queen West neighbourhood and the Entertainment District meet, the Smart House Condos cater to prospective homeowners seeking an exciting and sophisticated life in the city. At 215 Queen Street West, this development by Urban Capital is steps away from one of Toronto’s most popular social scenes.
The building itself can be considered a landmark thanks to ArchitectsAlliance. Standing at 25-storeys, the Smart House Condos are spectacular. The balconies’ angled façades make the tower seem to rise into the sky, whereas bold accents of deep red glass cladding smartly ground 215 Queen West. The result is a vivid expression of contemporary architecture.
At street level, a 4-storey podium holds two levels of alluring retail space, another two levels state-of-the-art offices, a private lobby, and an attractive selection of amenities. Residents can exercise and entertain easily, with lounges, a gym, and a party room with a showcase kitchen – all marvelously styled by the much-acclaimed II BY IV Design Studio.
The Suites
The Smart House Condos’ name comes courtesy of the brilliant design of their suites. Careful consideration went into maximizing the efficiency of every single one of its 256 downtown Toronto condos, which span in size from approximately 300 to nearly 800 square feet. That means innovative, custom-designed modular furnishings, which give rooms with 9 foot ceiling heights multiple functions — perfect for young professionals who are keen on Queen West condos for sale and will energized by the buildings' vibrant surroundings.
The clever design can be best recognized in the suites’ kitchens. The appliances integrate into the streamlined yet spacious cabinetry and look great next to the extra-deep countertops. Their added depth allows them to provide even more counter space, although they are also fully-retractable for those who need the space to entertain or move about.
Indeed, it really is a pleasure to live in the building, and not just for their innovative features. Floor-to-ceiling windows fill the suites with light, and spacious balconies extend living spaces further, allowing residents to enjoy 215 Queen West’s exciting atmosphere while in their own private outdoor spaces.
The Neighbourhood
Many who’ve fallen in love with the city did so in the neighbourhood. Sitting just off University Avenue on Queen West, many of the popular brands and restaurant franchises have locations steps away from 215 Queen West. Moreover, there are loads of independent cafes, restaurants, and boutiques in the neighbourhood, which residents may try to keep hidden from the crowds, but still proudly support.
For those seeking more unique goods, a short walk down the street towards Spadina Avenue leads to West Queen West’s more eclectic and trendy boutiques. And residents should definitely stop by the many independent stores on Spadina towards the Fashion District: they hold the latest offerings from many emerging brands and designers.
Conversely, many cultural venues are close to the Smart House Condos. Cinephiles adore the films screening at the TIFF Bell Lightbox around the corner in King West. Art lovers can explore the Art Gallery Ontario, only a few minutes away on Dundas Street West between McCaul and Beverley. Lastly, residents can become regulars at the Rex Jazz and Blues Bar – this legendary, intimate concert venue is right across the street at St. Patrick Street and Queen West.
Transportation
Residents live in an enviable part of the city’s transit network. 215 Queen West is, conveniently, steps from Osgoode Station on the Yonge-University-Spadina subway line. Riders only need a couple minutes to transfer onto the Bloor-Danforth line, at St. George Station, or to get to Union Station where there’s access to GO Transit, VIA Rail trains, and the UP Express.
For those who prefer to drive, the Smart House Condos are well positioned. Although, being in such a popular part of the city means local traffic can be heavy at times, residents are a short drive from the highway. Residents need only head south on the wide University Avenue, which becomes York Street, and features an onramp for the Gardiner Expressway.
