40 Oaklands is a quietly admired boutique building in the heart of Summerhill - known for its strong sense of community, exceptional walkability, and discreet, secure atmosphere. One-bedroom suites here are seldom available, and true single-level living with no interior stairs is especially rare. Beautifully renovated by RTG Designs in 2017, this thoughtfully designed suite centres around a custom kitchen with an oversized island and integrated dining extension, opening to a bright living area with tailored built-ins and a walk-out to a private east-facing balcony set among the trees. Custom millwork continues throughout, including a built-in sideboard with wine fridge, media centre, and bookshelves. The spacious bedroom features a walk-in closet and access to a carefully finished bathroom with heated marble basketweave floors and classic white subway tile. Wide-plank white oak floors run throughout. A generous laundry and storage room adds everyday practicality rarely found in suites of this scale. Includes parking and locker. Easily accessed from the lobby yet quietly positioned within the building-an ideal combination of convenience and privacy. The Oaklands is a well-managed, pet-friendly boutique residence with part-time concierge (1-9 pm), visitor parking, bike storage, and car wash. EV charging installation permitted. Maintenance fees include cable and internet. Low property taxes. A calm, turnkey home just steps to Summerhill's shops, restaurants, parks, and transit-within one of the neighbourhood's most special boutique buildings. (id:60457) Location - Avenue Rd/Cottingham St.
