The Mount Pleasant West neighbourhood has one very special residential complex that is unlike any other in the city of Toronto…The Metro (lofts & condominiums) complex. The Metro complex combines unique soft lofts that look & are very much like English double-level row houses, with 13-storey condo buildings (twin towers joined together by a centre 5-storey podium) tucked in behind the lofts. Collectively, The Metro (119-139 Merton Street) offers 194 units.Built and completed in 2000 by Urbancorp (developer) and John Vanstone Architect, the soft lofts exterior poses a quaint, red-brick façade, while the dual condo buildings subtly provide a soothing background with its soft, off-white brick & cement exterior. The architectural features of the soft lofts buildings add real character to the street-level atmosphere, with recessed features and eye-appealing presence.The lofts are dimensionally generous with their 2-level loft layouts, with options of 1 bedroom (570 square feet) and penthouses (1280 square feet). Some of the features of these loft units are 18-foot ceilings, views from the large windows are of the city skyline & the greenbelt, modern kitchens & baths, modern appliances, hardwood & laminate flooring and extra storage space. The Metro is a pet-friendly complex!All the amenities that homebuyers would normally find in-building, are actually just outside The Metro (119-139 Merton Street), with excellent walkability! Greenspace and fitness go hand in hand when residents take advantage of having the Kay Gardner Beltline Trail & Park as their backyard (perfect for picnics, cycling, walking, jogging, boarding and pet-walking)! The historical average PSF shows through the years that there is a consistent potential for a positive return on investment at The Metro! Icc Property Management’s staff are handy for residents needs, and to oversee the operations of this property.Tucked into a quieter neighbourhood, The Metro is bordered by the Kay Gardner Beltline Trail, Yonge Street, Merton Street and Mt. Pleasant Road. At the corners of Yonge & Merton and at Merton & Mt. Pleasant are TTC bus stops, but Davisville subway station is within a walkable distance north on Yonge Street between Balliol Street and Davisville Avenue. Homebuyers that rather drive their own vehicles and want to access nearby highways, can simply head south on Mt. Pleasant Road to Moore Avenue, then head east to Bayview Avenue (which if taken south will reveal the access ramps to the Don Valley Pkwy). Eglinton Avenue west to Allen Road (then heading north) will offer access ramps to highway 401.Within a 10-minute walk in any direction of The Metro complex, homebuyers will have access to Fiona Nelson Parkette, Oriole Park & Neshama Playground, Balliol Parkette, Davisville Junior Public School, gastropub, restaurants, banks, cafes, shops, business services, professional offices, grocery stores, dry cleaners and more. A little further away in the east, buyers will find even more greenspaces…Glebe Manor Square West and June Rowlands Park.A smorgasbord of shopping and dining options can be found at the Yonge-Eglinton Centre (Yonge Street & Eglinton Avenue intersection), just north of the Eglinton subway station. West on Eglinton Avenue is the highly enjoyable Eglinton Park with its trails (great for cycling, walking and jogging), North Toronto Memorial community centre and the North Toronto Memorial arena for sports enthusiasts! Eglinton Avenue & Mt. Pleasant Road corners also host a variety of amenities.
