3 Mcalpine Street & 28-42 McMurrich Street

Between Avenue Road and Yonge Street, and just east of Davenport Road, sits the Domus Condos at 3 Mcalpine Street in the prestigious Yorkville neighbourhood. This unique mid-rise building has both classical and modern inspirations, making it a truly unique and comfortable spot for residents to call home.

One could be forgiven for thinking the building was a contemporary cathedral, rather than a condo. Built in 2002, the Domus Condos have a striking gothic-inspired façade of stone, with large arched windows of dark glass. 3 Mcalpine is surrounded by plenty of other condos and offices of north Yorkville, and still it stands out amongst the neighboring buildings — or really any other Toronto condo for that matter.

The Domus Condos also have a long list of amenities for residents to get used to, such as a gym, concierge and security services, a parking garage for residents and their guests, guest suites, and a party room. The building also welcomes residents with pets, and features a landscaped courtyard for homeowners to enjoy.

There are a total of 93 downtown Toronto condos within the 8 storeys of the Domus Condos, 20 of which are multi-floor townhouses. The suites range from around 600 square feet, to almost 3,700 square feet in the building’s largest unit. A select number of condos also feature some rather spacious private terraces.

The unique architecture of 3 Mcalpine allows for varied floor plans that can perfectly suit the tastes of any prospective buyer, which is why Yorkville condos for sale in this building cast a wide net. The elegant and stylish homes come with one to three bedrooms, one to three bathrooms, and there are options with additional powder rooms or dens as well. Kitchens feature stone counters, stainless steel appliances and modern wood cabinetry, while roomy ensuite bathrooms are equally luxurious.

9 foot ceilings and open-concept living and dining spaces make suites at the Domus Condos feel spacious yet cozy at the same time, while cathedral-style floor-to-ceiling windows flood spaces with light. To top it all off, the homes at 3 Mcalpine are finished with hardwood floors, and boast walk-in closets and ensuite laundry.

Yorkville is one of Toronto’s hottest areas for upscale living, and with good reason. The area is rich with high-end boutiques, fine dining restaurants as well as local greasy spoons, and an ever increasing number of entertainment venues and popular bars. As well, residents are close to both the Yorkville Village Mall and Hudson’s Bay Shopping Centre, both of which have grocery and liquor stores.

For residents who tend to get stir crazy, 3 Mcalpine Street is a short walk away from museums like the Royal Ontario Museum or Gardiner Museum — especially handy for those looking for a taste of culture or history in particular. And the Spadina Theatre and Varsity Cinemas are also close to the Domus Condos, perfect for catching the latest films or even a film festival screening.

Though the Domus Condos are close to the downtown core, a wealth of parks and green spaces can still be found in the area. Queen’s Park, Ramsden Park, Jessie Ketchum Park and the Rosedale Ravine are great places to enjoy the weather, walk with pets, or get some exercise.

Families considering this property will be happy with the number of daycares and schools nearby, including Jessie Ketchum Junior and Senior Public School, Jarvis Collegiate Institute, and Branksome Hall.

Residents should have no trouble getting around, whether exploring the city or commuting to work. TTC bus routes serve the surrounding streets, including Avenue Road, Davenport Road and Yonge Street, and residents are only a 6 minute walk to Rosedale Station or a 7 minute walk to Bay Station.

Biking around 3 Mcalpine Street is made easier thanks to the bike lanes along Davenport Road, and drivers can easily access the Don Valley Parkway via either Rosedale Valley Road or Bloor Street East.
