Auberge on the Park

Enjoyed from the comfort of terraced balconies, Auberge on the Park is a breath of fresh air, complete with the glimmer of a historical icon. Adjacent to greenery like Edwards Gardens and Sunnybrook Park, Auberge on the Park is neatly nestled amongst some of Toronto’s most well-to-do neighbourhoods. With Leaside and Bayview Village just down the road, the Bridle Path and Hoggs Hollow to the north, as well as notable streets Mt. Pleasant and Yonge St. just to the west, the area surrounding Leslie and Eglinton is wreathed by affluence and a wealth of amenity options.

AN INTERWOVEN NETWORK OF PARKLAND

Whether it’s to park yourself on a bench with a book or beneath a shady tree, the verdant pull of park space is irresistible. Luckily, you happen to be in the enviable position of living amidst a vast network of lush parklands, making this particular area of Toronto especially unique.

The Don River stretches about 38km from the Oak Ridges Moraine, all the way down to Lake Ontario, with many trail opportunities and manicured gardens to meander through along the way. The Lower Don Parklands is one of the largest urban environmental restoration projects in the world.

THINGS TO DO

Amidst the extravagant estate homes of Bridle Path and Hoggs Hollow, a breeze away from boutique-lined Mount Pleasant and effervescent Yonge Street, the aura surrounding Auberge is one steeped in opulence, history, leisure and a wealth of plush, green parkland. When you’re encircled by Sunnybrook Park’s 150-acres of nature, it’ll be hard not to pick up a few nature-related hobbies! The sprawling public park is great for birdwatching, hiking, dog-walking, and even taking some horseback lessons at Sunnybrook Stables.

Auberge truly has the best of both worlds – 15 minutes from downtown Toronto, but still plenty of things to do in the community too. The open-air Shops at Don Mills offer high-end retailers such as Murale, Oak + Fort, Michael Kors, and Coach. Or you can take a day trip to the Ontario Science Centre where you’ll find both kids and adults engrossed in a world of learning. The Aga Khan Museum is another great point of interest showcasing great historical treasures and artistic installations. If neither of these is to your taste, Auberge has many other entertainment spots such as Sunnybrook Stables, Cineplex VIP Cinemas Don Mills, Sky Zone Trampoline Park, Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre, and the Toronto Botanical Garden.

Immersing yourself in a lavish environment isn’t complete without equally outstanding dining. There is something decidedly exciting about dining out at a great restaurant and creating a night of lasting memories and conversations. Try Fabbrica’s rustic Italian dishes, L’avenue’s French Bistro delights, or Asian-fusion at Lemongrass. Still feeling hungry? You’ll love the charming European pastries offered by the numerous high-quality patisseries in the area.

AREA ACADEMICS

Auberge’s excellent amenities are complemented by its perfect location that is surrounded by first-rate schools. These are just a selection of schools in the area: Seneca Hill Private School, Maria Montessori School, Valley Park Middle School, Marc Garneau Collegiate Institute, St. Anselm Catholic School, Sunnybrook School, Leaside High school, Bessborough Dr. Elementary & Middle School, and more. Your close access to the DVP means Toronto’s best universities and colleges are a short drive away too.

AMENITIES

You will never feel like you’re coming back to a cold, concrete condo when you’re greeted by a tree-lined promenade and central community park every day. The natural surroundings flow into the grand, two-storey lobby complete with decorative flourishes, richly marbled surfaces, grained woodwork – evoking a calm and welcoming space for you to return to. Besides the lobby, you have plenty to look forward to at Auberge because the first floor also contains a multimedia room, party room, private dining room, and lounge.

A visit to the fifth floor will leave you feeling relaxed and refreshed. Cool down in the outdoor swimming pool during the summer and unwind after a long day at the whirlpool spa. Dry off and head to the terrace dining area or private outdoor cabanas and fire up the BBQ grill for some juicy burgers and skewers. There’s no better place to burn off those calories than at condo’s fitness centre complete with yoga and spin studio. Of course, your beloved furry best friend has their own pet amenity space on this floor too.
