MASTER-PLANNED COMMUNITIES
A master-planned community is a neighbourhood carefully designed to fulfill the diverse needs of its inhabitants. Prior to construction, each section of the neighbourhood is designated for a specific use: homes, schools, businesses, as well as public and commercial spaces. The community emphasises connectivity with neighbours as well as the surrounding city, ensuring that essential amenities are within a short walk or drive. Some examples of established master-planned communities include Leaside in Toronto, Erin Mills in Mississauga, and Cornell in Markham.
Union Village has been meticulously planned out to foster a strong sense of community and ensure a high quality of life. It will be a one-of-a-kind neighbourhood with an abundance of breathtaking greenery interwoven in and around the residences. There will be numerous parks, woods, and wetlands where you can relax, play, and meet with friends and neighbours. In addition, a new school will be built in the near future that will be located in the heart of the neighbourhood. With so many amenities just steps from your door, Union Village is sure to be a highly desirable community in which to live and raise a family.
Location
Union Village will be located in the prestigious neighbourhood of Unionville in Markham. This neighbourhood was founded over 200 years ago, and has grown and evolved over the centuries while still retaining its heritage, architecture, and charm. Just south of your home is the historic Main St Unionville, overflowing with quaint shops and restaurants including local favourites like The Unionville Arms, Il Postino, Ambiyan, Jake’s on Main, and Old Firehall Confectionary. Cooking at home is made easy with The Village Grocer just 2 minutes away, where you can find the freshest, highest quality produce.
Your home will be located next to several schools renowned for their academic excellence, including Pierre Elliott Trudeau High School, All Saints Catholic Elementary School, Unionville Montessori Private School, and Beckett Farm Public School. Furthermore, York University, in partnership with Seneca College, will be opening a new campus in Markham in 2021. This state-of-the-art campus will offer programs with a focus on cutting-edge sectors such as commerce, entrepreneurship, digital media, and medical biotechnology, among others. It is expected to enroll over 4,500 students by 2022, with additional growth in the future.
The City of Markham, which is located just north of Toronto, is recognized as Canada’s high tech capital. Due to Markham’s high quality infrastructure, talented workforce, and pro-business environment, the city welcomes over 1500 technology companies that employ more than 37,000 people. It is the headquarters of industry leaders such as IBM, AMD, Lenovo, Toshiba, and many more.
TRANSIT
Your home will be located next to numerous transit options. YRT buses run regularly along Kennedy Road and Bur Oak Avenue, connecting you with the rest of Markham. Following Bur Oak eastward will take you to Mount Joy GO Station, where various buses and trains await to bring you to Union Station. For those who prefer to drive, Highway 404 is around 8 minutes away, and will take you to Highway 401 and Downtown Toronto.
