135 Maitland Street

With a name like ‘The Marquis’ you’d expect this building to be distinguished — and 135 Maitland St doesn’t disappoint with its cream coloured exterior, white stone foundation, and Juliette balconies — this building has a distinctly Parisian feel and might be one of the most aptly-named buildings in the city.

This building has a wide appeal due to its spacious suites at reasonable prices — first-time home buyers, professionals, and empty nesters — so anyone who is in the market for a condo in a convenient neighbourhood should consider this Toronto condos for sale in this property.

At The Marquis you can enjoy a little piece of France at home with your very own Juliette balcony, and if that has peaked your interest, just wait until you hear about the finishes — rich hardwood floors, walk-in closets, high-ceilings, and updated kitchens. Some units feature large terraces, and those on the ground floor have private yards.

There are only 34 Toronto condos in this building, making for a more private and quieter experience than a larger high-rise; suite sizes range from 500 square feet for an open-concept bachelor, to over 1500 for a 2 bedroom + den.
