128 Fairview Mall Drive

Warning — if shopping restraint is an issue for you, then you’ll want to steer clear of Connect Condos. Located at 128 Fairview Mall Dr, this 16 storey tower is a hop, skip, and a jump from boutiques galore at CF Fairview Mall.

128 Fairview Mall Dr is situated in the Don Valley Village neighbourhood. Fram Building Group completed the tower in 2018, and it resides next door to the similarly styled Soul Condos.

The building includes thoughtful amenities designed to relax and provide convenience at home: There’s a slick lounge and a conference room, a fitness centre, a games room, a media room, guest suites and a 24 hour concierge service. Residents have underground parking and there’s visitor parking too — and plenty of nearby street parking as well.

This tower contains 210 suites, divided between condo units in the tower and select townhouse units in the podium. Prospective buyers will find floor plans ranging in size from 409 square foot studios to 1299 square feet for the largest 3 bedroom plus den homes in the building.

All suites in this residence follow open concept layouts — and natural light beams in through floor-to-ceiling window-walls. These homes feature upgraded wide plank laminate flooring and executive kitchens come equipped with stone countertops, integrated stainless steel appliances, and European style kitchen cabinets.

Bathrooms are lavish and include deep soaker tubs and rain showerheads. Residents have private balconies — those on higher floors have sweeping views — and all units have stacked laundry.

The Don Valley Village has a little something for all home buyers. The neighbourhood is bounded by the 404 to the east and green spaces to the north. Charming parks and respected schools are evenly dispersed throughout the neighbourhood, and there are businesses clustered around Don Mills Rd and Finch Ave E.
