Carrying the cachet of the elite private school to its north, the State Building Group and Madison Homes have crafted a project with a clear understanding of what is most attractive to buyers in this competitive market segment. Located on the east side of Avenue Road just south of Lonsdale Road, the project promises to offer the luxurious living and quiet comfort that is synonymous with Forest Hill. Stressing functionality and livability in suite design, Barry Zagdanski, President of State Building Group, requires that all his projects feature an array of spaces that are both versatile and well-propotioned. With a minimum square footage set at just over 1000 sq. feet, the suites of the EI Richmond-designed 18-storey building offer buyers an opportunity to enjoy the benefits of condominium living, namely ease of maintenance and ample amenities, without sacrificing the spaciousness afforded by a traditional home. Urban Toronto was fortunate to attend a broker event at The Upper Canada sales centre Wednesday afternoon where we were able to captures some photos of the expansive 1515 sq. ft. model suite. Below a quick tour of the Tomas Pearce designed 'Essex' unit:

Although the sales centre has yet to have their grand opening, appointments to view the model suite and speak to sales staff are more than welcome.
