Imperial Village delivers spacious, luxurious residence

Imperial Village is not just another master-planned condominium development.

Set atop the escarpment along St. Clair Avenue West, Camrost Felcorp’s 2.9-acre master-planned Imperial Village community is the new, luxurious nucleus between Toronto’s most sought-after neighbourhoods, including Forest Hill, Yorkville, Rosedale and Summerhill.

Surrounded by quaint shops, chic restaurants, top public and private schools, lush parks and natural ravines, Imperial Village boasts unrivalled panoramic views of the city and access to the TTC at its doorstep.

Living atop the escarpment in the city’s most desirable neighbourhoods has been a longtime dream for many Torontonians, and a dream it was, until Camrost Felcorp began making the option a reality for first-time buyers, empty nesters and families alike.

Designed to highlight the neighbourhood’s historical architecture, rival the existing luxury of its midtown location, and offer the conveniences of condo living with the amenities of a five-star resort, Camrost Felcorp brought to life an unparalleled vision for its Imperial Village community. Once complete, Imperial Village will boast over 900 residences between its luxury residential towers and three-storey townhomes.

The development began with the retrofit and restoration of the historic 23-storey former Imperial Oil headquarters at 111 St. Clair Ave. W. – “one of this country’s greatest modernist buildings,” says Camrost Felcorp president and CEO David Feldman – into a mixed-use luxury condominium.

Imperial Plaza is taking occupancy and select residences, including the Imperial Suites (675 to 1,675 sq. ft.) and Imperial Lofts and Flats (710 to 1,090 sq. ft.), are available for immediate move in. Prices start at $500,000 and range to over $1.7 million.

A select few of the ultra-luxurious 3,000+ sq. ft. Sky Penthouses remain available; prices begin at $4 million.

Next door at St. Clair and Foxbar Road, the internationally renowned Diamond Schmitt Architects is designing Imperial Village’s second phase, a 26-storey tower called Blue Diamond. The sleek, glass tower will rise behind an open-air public courtyard enclosed by the original exterior walls of the historic de-commissioned former Deer Park United Church.

“In an established, amenity-rich neighbourhood like this, even the smallest homes are priced at well over $1 million,” says Feldman. “With suites at Blue Diamond starting from the mid-$300’s, we are offering first-time buyers a unique opportunity to live in one of Toronto’s finest neighbourhoods, without sacrifice.”

In addition to the functional one- and two-bedroom layouts available in the tower, Camrost has released the Foxbar Collection – a selection of spacious condominium suites on the upper floors of Blue Diamond, and six modern townhomes nestled along the charming Foxbar Road.

Foxbar Collection suites are available in two-bedroom, two-bedroom-plus-den and three-bedroom layouts, and boast exquisite views. Ranging from 1,150 to over 2,000 sq. ft., suites are priced from $874,900.

For buyers seeking the convenience of condo living, but desiring more space and immediate street-level access, the three-storey Foxbar townhomes are a perfect option. The townhome layouts feature three bedrooms, two bathrooms and an office, as well as backyard terrace, third-floor terrace, fully finished basement and car garage. The townhomes start from $2.48 million, and range from 2,600 to 2,985 sq. ft.

“There’s an unparalleled attention to every detail in our Foxbar Collection, as in all our projects,” says Feldman. “These residences have an elegant design and ample space to live and entertain, offering the ultimate in luxury and lifestyle, all within an excellent community.”

To complement the luxuriousness of its residences, Camrost has created an amenities package that ranks amongst the finest in the city. Residents of Imperial Plaza and Blue Diamond – including both the condo suites and the Foxbar townhomes – will have full access to the Imperial Club. This shared amenity complex boasts over 20,000 sq. ft. of state-of-the-art offerings, including an indoor pool and whirlpool spa, squash courts, a fitness auditorium, a yoga/Pilates studio, screening rooms, a golf simulator room, sound-insulated music room, and much more.

The grand restored marble lobby of Imperial Plaza also features The Market by Longo’s with a Starbucks, and an LCBO.

“It’s transforming the neighbourhood, and the community is building relationships with one another through these offerings,” Feldman says of the retail component.

“Imperial Village represents a gold standard in luxury condominium living. Our residences in this community deliver buyers a premier location, luxurious amenities, spacious suites and modern conveniences. And rather than erase the culturally rich and architecturally significant heritage of the area to start anew, we chose to celebrate it. Imperial Village has maintained the most significant elements of the former Imperial Oil Building and the Deer Park United Church, while adding modern conveniences, luxuries, and finishings as we write the next chapter for the entire neighbourhood.”
