Welcome to The Oaklands
Built in 1981, the Oaklands is a unique, small scale condo building brilliantly located a few steps from Avenue Road, just north of Yorkville and is situated in one of Toronto’s most picturesque, vibrant and dynamic midtown neighborhoods. These tasteful low-rise Toronto condos for sale offer upscale, sophisticated midtown living in a tasteful building with a friendly, community feel. The neighborhood is also home to some of the finest boutiques and galleries around.
This highly private and tastefully scaled building has only fifty-two units and has won numerous accolades for its sophisticated architectural design, including "The Canadian Architect" award of excellence and the governor general's medal for architecture. The Oaklands has been a home to many notable Torontonians. Robertson Davies (the author), lived here throughout the 1980s while completing his Cornish Trilogy, including the Booker Prize–nominated What’s Bred in the Bone. The Oaklands was also home to one of Canadian television’s best-known and most honored actors, Wendy Crewson, who won multiple Gemini Awards for her work in Canadian TV series and TV movies. She has also enjoyed a prolific film career and has acted opposite such Hollywood stars as Harrison Ford, Helen Mirren, Robert Redford, Michelle Pfeiffer, Rachel McAdams, Elliot Page and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
From this perfect lower midtown setting, you are a mere six-minute walk from the Summerhill subway station or a short ten minute walk to Bloor and avenue road. From the Summerhill subway station, a four minute ride takes you to Yonge and Bloor...arguably the very heart of the city and most assuredly ground zero for the best shopping district Toronto has to offer. A further eight minutes on the subway and you are in the heart of the financial and entertainment districts of this most vibrant city core.
