The Kennedys wins us over with price, design and location
By Lucas on Jun 23, 2016
One of the Greater Toronto Area’s (GTA) most highly anticipated new condo developments is The Kennedys by Samm Developments. This master-planned, multi-tower condo community is launching soon, and it’s quickly becoming the talk of the town.
Here are four reasons why condo buyers are registering for The Kennedys:
1) The contemporary building design
Page + Steele/IBI Group Architects designed The Kennedys. Each tower is a different colour and is adorned with curved lines and continuous balconies. The four-storey podium features random squares that are cantilevered over the street’s edge, making a landmark statement at street level.
There is also a European-style, open-air, central landscaped courtyard with seating and a water feature between the two towers. Upon entry of The Kennedys, you will definitely be impressed by the contemporary styling of Tomas Pearce Interior Design Consulting Inc.
2) The luxurious amenities
Whether you’re relaxing, exercising, entertaining, or working, The Kennedys’ four-star hotel style amenities have you covered. When you’re looking to relax after a hard day’s work, have a seat and chat with neighbours in the lobby lounge, or go for a dip in the indoor pool. There’s also a hot tub for ultra-relaxation.
To stay healthy, the wellness centre offers a fully equipped workout centre and an aerobics studio. If you enjoy entertaining both small and large groups of friends and family, then you will love having access to the kitchen with a chef’s table and dining area, as well as the games room with a lounge and billiards, and a karaoke room for your outgoing friends.
There are outdoor lounge areas for quiet reading, dining alfresco, or taking in the sunset. If you are an entrepreneur or work from home, then you will also appreciate the business centre and WiFi lounges.
3) The convenient location
Located at 2035 Kennedy Road, The Kennedys is within a close proximity to a wide variety of neighbourhood amenities, including places of worship, restaurants, shopping, and parks. The Kennedys has ground floor retail in the podium and Kennedy Commons and Scarborough Town Centre are nearby.
Kennedy Commons has 32 retailers, and Scarborough Town Centre has more than 230. A few of the closest parks to The Kennedys include Collingwood, Inglewood Heights, Snowhill, and Ellesmere.
Getting around the GTA is also pretty easy from The Kennedys since you have quick access to Highways 401 and 404/Don Valley Parkway, plus the Agincourt GO Rail Station and the Midland TTC stop are only a few minutes away.
4) Opportunities for first-time buyers
The Building Industry and Land Development Association (BILD) recently announced that the average price for a new high-rise unit in the GTA was $454,304, and if you’re shopping for a new detached home, it will probably cost you more than $1 million.
At The Kennedys, prices are starting from the low $200,000s! That’s the kind of price first-time buyers prefer. According to BILD, the new high-rise market is currently booming (due to a dwindling supply of new low-rise supply), and prices are rising healthily (around 3% year-over-year). This means that this is a great time for you to enter the market for the first time!
