Located at Trafalgar Road and Dundas Street East, North Oak Condos has been a resounding success with homebuyers for its idyllic location combined with sleek interiors and wellness-enhancing features and amenities. The development by Minto Communities GTA launched sales for the first tower last March and is now releasing suites in the second tower.
North Oak Condos is part of Minto’s larger Oakvillage master-planned community of traditional, back-to-back and rear lane townhomes, and marks the development’s first high-rise condominium. The development is situated within proximity to parks, schools and plenty of everyday conveniences. Plus, the Oakville Trafalgar GO station, Highway 403, Highway 410 and the QEW are all easily accessible, making it a great option for commuters.
The forward-thinking project debuts a new geoexchange energy system which reduces carbon emissions by as much as 70 percent. Commonly used in Nordic countries, geoexchange energy systems leverage the earth’s stable underground temperatures to provide heating or cooling year-round in a more energy efficient way, substantially reducing the amount of fossil fuels used. The system keeps utility costs low and is designed to connect to future towers in Oakvillage, creating a community energy system aligned with goals set out in the Town of Oakville’s Community Energy Plan.
North Oak’s towers are bookended by a natural channel and the Athabasca Pond and its trail system of nearly 300 kilometres of greenspaces. Residents will also enjoy a scenic one-and-a-half kilometre multi-use trail that weaves throughout the site, connecting them with nature.
“We’re thrilled to launch North Oak’s second tower, 4B, after the tremendous success of our launch of tower 4A earlier this year,” said Roya Khaleeli, Director of Sustainability and Innovation, Minto Communities GTA. “North Oak is our first project to offer community energy through a geoexchange system and the response from purchasers so far has been positive.”
“Not only will residents benefit from this leading-edge technology, we know they’ll also benefit greatly from the wellness-inspired approach that’s seen through every touch point – from the walking paths and pedestrian prioritization to the beautiful gardens with native plantings and the bright interiors with natural materials and biophilic design incorporated throughout.”
Designed by BDP Quadrangle, the second tower stands 15 storeys tall and houses 167 suites, appointed with sleek finishes and colour palettes curated by the renowned interior design firm Figure3.
Bold vertical lines mirror 4B’s 20-storey sister tower and are juxtaposed with horizontal massing. The exterior is enhanced with contemporary materials like metal accents and precast brick that give a nod to the surrounding low-rise neighbourhood. Plus, the podium and towers are set back from the street to create pedestrian-friendly public spaces.
The key themes of resilience, wellness, biophilic design and connectivity culminate in North Oak’s ‘Neighbourhood Nest’ concept, which features a double-height ceiling atrium that connects the lobbies of both towers. A grand spiral staircase serves as a focal point in the elegant lobby alongside calming biophilic design features like a lush garden with native plantings. Designed as a social space, the Neighbourhood Nest also serves as a co-working space with a back-up power connection, communications system, and critical goods refrigeration for use during emergencies.
The spiral staircase leads to more shared amenity spaces, including an expansive fitness centre equipped with a cardio studio, yoga and pilates space, sauna, free weights and exercise machines. Residents will also have access to two party rooms, a pet wash, bike repair and wash station, and an outdoor terrace with a pergola, barbecues and seating areas overlooking the pond.
Priced from the mid $500,000s, available suites boast thoughtfully-designed one- and two-bedroom layouts featuring light tones and natural materials that create a calm and inviting atmosphere. Large floor-to-ceiling windows allow for ample natural light, while spacious balconies or terraces provide a seamless connection to the outdoors.
