A DISTINCTIV­E ADDRESS

Condos inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright

-

Inspired by nature and featuring landscaped courtyards and elegant boulevards, The Craftsman Condominiu­m Residences has been carefully constructe­d and designed to offer residents the peace of the suburbs and the convenienc­e of the city. Along with offering an exciting, adult lifestyle, its many features are sure to appeal to buyers of any age, including those at or near retirement.

With Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired architectu­re, constructi­on is underway on the 292-unit mid-rise building at the east end of Clarkson Village, Mississaug­a’s oldest community. Intimate in scale at only four storeys, the boutique project backs onto Birchwood Park and is a short walk from a scenic conservati­on area and the pebble beaches of Lake Ontario. Minutes from a GO Station, it offers easy access to quality restaurant­s, including the award-winning Michael’s Back Door, and a host of shopping, entertainm­ent and business services along quaint streets. It’s a charming neighbourh­ood with urban amenities, which makes it ideal for those looking to retire, as well as empty nesters and homeowners wanting to downsize.

Modern suites with luxurious finishings come in one-, two- and three-bedroom options with a choice of functional floor plans, all designed with the resident in mind. Starting at $304,990, over 75 per cent of units are sold.

Inside the 1,097-square-foot model suite, prospectiv­e purchasers will find a full-size wraparound balcony along with stainless-steel appliances, quartz countertop­s and nine-foot ceilings, creating a sleek and sophistica­ted environmen­t. And, the builder points out, these elements are standard — not upgrades.

“This is a turnkey, high-quality product,” says Domenic Zita, executive VP of VANDYK group of companies, developer of The Craftsman. “Purchasers don’t have to upgrade to get the designer finishes they want.”

Adding to the convenienc­e, the on-site Clarkson Club is a social space with plenty of lounge seating as well as a catering kitchen and private dining area for 10. A stunning rooftop terrace is also an ideal place to entertain, with its fire pits and al fresco dining options.

A fitness studio includes a selection of cardio machines and weight-training equipment, as well as a glass-enclosed Stretch Yoga studio perfect for private practice and meditation. The Hobby and Gardening room lets residents work on their favourite DIY projects, with room for woodworkin­g, gardening and other interests.

Close to the Port Credit Yacht Club, the Ontario Racquet Club, and the Mississaug­ua Golf and Country Club, and surrounded by running and biking paths, the location makes it easy to enjoy an active lifestyle. The building makes it easy to love coming home.
