18 Stafford Street

Do you love city living but hate city noise? Are idling cars keeping awake at night, but the thought of the suburbs still makes you cringe? If so, Wellington Square might be the place for you. Situated at 18 Stafford St, Wellington Square is an 11-storey condominium nestled in the King West neighbourhood.

Tucked away just south of King Street, this building enjoys a peaceful setting in spite of its close proximity to the Entertainment District and Toronto’s most notable attractions. Wellington Square offers some nice extras to make residents feel even more relaxed at home: gym, party room, rooftop patio, meeting room, and parking garage.

King West has a youthful spirit and as such, many buildings in the area are geared towards younger buyers; Wellington Square appeals to larger a demographic because of nearby green spaces and quiet streets. King West condos for sale in this building are well-suited to first-time home buyers and professionals — young and old alike — who work in downtown Toronto.

Wellington square was completed in 2004 and is home to 172 Toronto condos; suites in this building are open concept and modern, with tall ceilings, updated kitchens, large windows, spacious bedrooms, and private balconies. Some units have seen upgrades and feature hardwood floors, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances.

Suites at 18 Stafford St are based on a variety of floor plans for 1 bedroom, 1 bedroom + den, 2 bedroom, and 2 bedroom + den condos; suite sizes range from 560 square feet to 918.

These units are pet-friendly — which is great, because Stanley Park is just around the corner where you’ll find an expansive green space and an off-leash dog park.

For food, fun, coffee and convenience — there are few neighbourhoods better than King West. From 18 Stafford St, it’s just a 2 minute walk to King Street; once there you’ll encounter a selection of restaurants for everything from fast food to fine-ding. There’s BQM Burger King West for craft beers and burgers, Oretta for Italian in a chic setting, Freshii for healthy eats, and of course, McDonald’s for food on the run.

Weekends are never boring in King West; there are lively spots like SPIN Toronto for drinks and ping pong battles, Bier Markt King West where you can try 150 different beers — not all at once — EFS for a bustling dance floor, and the Town Crier if you’re in the mood for imported beers. And if that’s not enough, you can stroll east to the Entertainment District for countless options.

After a night on the town you’ll need some caffeinated fuel in the morning — and you won’t have to go far to get it; there’s Love Child Social House and Thor Espresso Bar on Bathurst, Ciao Europa Café on Western Battery Rd, Tokyo Smoke Bellwoods on Adelaide, and Tim Hortons and Starbucks on King.

Wellington Square has a 91 Walk Score — so residents can accomplish their errands on foot; for groceries there’s an Independent City Market and Shopper Drug Mart minutes away on King.

Public Transit users have streetcars on King and buses on Strachan, making it easy to connect to TTC services through the city.

Driver can avoid most city traffic by heading south on Strachan to Lake Shore Blvd and onto the Gardiner Expressway.
