The Essential: Coming Soon!

Sometimes, a boutique condominium is the perfect fit for a neighbourhood in need of a high-density residence.  They’re not too tall, but provide a sufficient amount of space.

If designed correctly, they blend in seamlessly with the surrounding architecture, and they alter a neighbourhood’s atmosphere through their quaint styling.  So, who will be graced by such an addition in the near future? The residents of Markham in the Berczy Village area.

Emery Homes is the developer behind the boutique condominium, The Essential.  Located at the corner of McCowan Road and Bur Oak Avenue, The Essential, which is currently in the preconstruction phase, will rise a simple six storeys.  Designed by Turner Fleischer Architects, a prolific firm responsible for such residences in Toronto as the Brewery Lofts, The Kensington I and II, The Regency Yorkville, and 1717 Avenue Rd., The Essential will be composed of brick and glass, and feature large windows.  Turner Fleischer have many impressive boutique condominium designs under their belt, so it is exciting to see how this one will look in the end.  

The Berczy Village area of Markham is a family-friendly neighbourhood, with all that you need and desire.  The necessities are countless, including banks, a supermarket, and schools.  For more leisurely activities, there are a number of expansive parks, shopping centres, restaurants, and coffee shops.  For an added sense of tranquility, there are a few beautiful golf courses surrounding the area.  Although everything you need is within a close proximity, Highways 404 and 407 are close by, and the Markham Go Station is only minutes away.  

Although the area is peppered with the best that Markham has to offer, The Essential will also feature an array of luxurious amenities, including a well-equipped fitness facility, a private golf simulator to practice on before you hit the real courses, a party room, and a theatre room for watching your favourite film.  A highlighted amenity space will be the landscaped rooftop terrace, which will feature two barbecuing stations, two private dining areas, and two cozy and spacious lounge areas.  

The interior was conceived by the Chapman Design Group, from the impressive lobby to the suites, the overall vibe should be welcoming and comfortable.  There will be 168 suites, available in sizes of 500-1,000 square feet, with one- to three-bedroom floor plans.  The layouts are designed to accommodate singles, couples, and small families.  Some of the suites’ features and finishes include contemporary and traditional style cabinets, granite or caeserstone countertops, ceramic or porcelain backsplashes, and 9’ ceilings.
