MARGO joins the Mount Joy neighbourhood at Bur Oak Ave. and Markham Rd. as the final phase of the Union community. This stunning 20-storey condominium tower atop of a 6-storey podium brings a touch of class to Canada’s most multicultural city. Aspen Ridge Homes has filled MARGO with spacious units that range from one bedroom to two bedrooms with optional den. With amenities both in the building and around the community, MARGO provides great value for those looking to live in Markham.
Neighbourhood
The Mount Joy neighbourhood is a great community for families and the working professional. Its proximity to many of Markham’s best high schools make it an ideal choice for those with children. The amount of space in your home as well as the many parks close-by are just some of the reasons so many people choose to live here. Nearby schools include St. Brother Andre Catholic High School, Markham District High School, and Donald Coussens Public School. Being adjacent to the Mount Joy GO Station also makes it easy to for individuals to commute to their workplace downtown. There is a huge plaza just a few steps north of MARGO with numerous restaurants and stores, and banks such as Pizza Nova, Popeyes, Food Basic, PetSmart, Home Depot, TD, Scotiabank, BMO, and many more.
Markham – A City in Constant Motion
Markham maintains its heritage amongst its beautifully preserved 19th-centrury Victorian streetscapes in Old Unionville and Old Markham while being a technological hub for numerous large enterprises. There is no shortage of cultural venues, sports facilities, parks, and golf clubs in Markham. Varley Art Museum, Flato Markham Theatre, Angus Glen Golf and Country Club, and Milne Dam Conservation Area are just some of the many spots of interest here. The world-class facility, The Markham Pam Am Centre, houses an Olympic-sized pool, enormous gymnasium, and multi-level fitness centre for those looking for a workout. Even when you’re not hitting the gym, plenty of walking will be done with a day at CF Markville shopping centre with its 160-store selection that has everything you need.
Transit
As a resident at MARGO, you’re adjacent to the Mount Joy GO Station which allows you to reach Union Station or downtown Toronto within a half hour. Furthermore, the VIVA bus network enables MARGO residents to traverse cross Unionville and Markham with ease. Of course, Highway 407 and Highway 404 are available to those constantly on the move.
Amenities
Ground floor amenities at MARGO brings the sense of community into your residence. The outdoor garden pushes past what segregates you from nature and creates an inviting place to socialize with friends and family. Meanwhile, the lobby, lounge, games room, and fitness facility all integrate to keep up with your lifestyle.
For residents on the higher floors, you don’t have to journey all the way down to the ground floor for amenities. On the seventh floor, you’ll find a beautiful outdoor terrace in addition to a party room. This is a great place for BBQ and evening dinners in the warmer seasons!
