Located in St. Catharines’ Merritton neighbourhood, Silvergate’s new condominium, Merritton Mills on Hastings, near Glendale, is an opportunity to get in on the changing face of an up-and-coming community.

Merritton, with its long-standing roots in the neighbourhood, is rapidly becoming a highly desirable place to live. Its proximity to South St. Catharines and its many amenities, make it ideal for families, as well as singles and retirees. It also provides a smart investment opportunity due to its proximity to the Pen Centre, downtown core, hiking and biking trails, Brock University and Niagara College.

In the first phase of this exciting new community, Silvergate will build a 71-suite midrise condominium, comprised of one- and two-bedroom suites. Suites are larger than the average, in a range of 800 to 1,200 sq. ft. The Residences of Merritton Mills is designed by Jason Pizzicarola Design Architects Inc. with interior design by BE Burgess and Leslie Landolt Designs. Merritton Mills ticks all the boxes of modern living. Its location in Merritton is exceptional. It’s a short walk to neighbourhood restaurants and shops, a quick drive to Hwy. 406 and the Pen Centre and easily accessible by transit.

The condominium offers a roster of building amenities that include underground parking, storage lockers, co-working space, a common area/lounge, a rooftop lounge with barbecues, a pet washing station, fitness centre, party room with kitchenette, bike storage and parcel room.

Why Merritton?

Merritton is a small hamlet that became incorporated into St. Catharines in 1961. It has always been a very distinctive community; with a proud history of mills and industrial prosperity and an important role in establishing the early iteration of the Welland Canal.

Today, the former mills, with their heritage bones, mostly operate as hospitality places, but Merritton remains a distinctive community within the larger city of St. Catharines. Located just minutes to the Pen Centre and less than half an hour from Niagara, Merritton offers its own brand of charm. Contributing to its evolution, The Residences of Merritton Mills is destined to appeal to people who enjoy living near elements of the past as they set about living their best life.

Surrounded by wineries, the lures of Niagara, the conveniences of the Pen Centre just a few minutes away, and all the urban amenities of St. Catharines, Merritton Mills offers the ideal location for people seeking a contemporary condominium in a walkable, shoppable neighbourhood.

Like St. Catharines, which evolved to become a place of hip cafes and restaurants, Merritton is gracefully and gently transforming into a place to live a uniquely urban experience.

Developed by Silvergate Homes, Merritton Mills reflects the carefully nurtured reputation for exceptional quality and a commitment to customer service embodied by Silvergate. For more than 35 years, the Passero family has been building and renovating homes in the Niagara region and beyond. Founders of Silvergate Homes, Vito and Victoria Passero, along with their three children all share the same passion and pride for the family business.

Silvergate Homes is a winner of more than 40 builder awards for excellence, design, marketing and environmental stewardship. The company is a Tarion Warranty Corp. builder and RenoMark contractor. This past April, Silvergate Homes was awarded the Niagara Home Builders’ Association (NHBA) Award of Excellence for the Most Outstanding Condo/Townhome up to 1,500 sq. ft. for Village on the Twelve, nicknamed Eclectic Dream.

Merritton Mills is scheduled to open for sales this summer, operating out of a Presentation Centre on site at Merritt Street (off Glendale). Interested parties are encouraged to register their interest to receive information and updates.
