Attention all prospective condo buyers looking for the right unit in Burlington - Branthaven Homes just broke ground at Jazz Condos, one of the first boutique developments on the city’s evolving waterfront.

Burlington Ward 1 Councillor, Rick Craven, the Branthaven team, and other VIP invites were in attendance to mark the exciting milestone. The start of construction is always thrilling for both the builder and homeowners because it’s when they’re investment starts to come to life.

“We are very excited to be introducing a new home opportunity in this established neighbourhood, in addition to a chance for new businesses to move into the area to support economic growth and development,” says Steve Stipsits, President of Branthaven Homes. “Jazz Condos will be a real showpiece for the area and its residents.”

The condo boasts an impressive four-storey design by Kirkor Architects + Planners. The low-rise design, charcoal facades, and large windows will definitely turn some heads once the residence is complete. With interior spaces by renowned firm II BY IV Design, you can bet that the suites and amenity spaces will be comprised of some very impressive features and finishes.

Speaking of amenities, Jazz Condos will have a social library/lounge with a club style bar, and a fitness facility with a yoga studio. Branthaven is all about making the most of every square inch and only including amenities and finishes that will actually be used by residents. With minimal communal amenities, the maintenance fees are the lowest in the region. This is ideal for first-time homebuyers out there who don’t have the extra monthly income to cover high maintenance fees that you don’t see a return on. As we’ve learned from our own research, a fitness facility and lounge are the most important amenities to condo dwellers.

Branthaven Homes is a Burlington-based builder, so they know exactly what the streetscape needs in order to move up to the next level of city building. The condo market in Burlington is on the edge of booming. The price of new and resale detached homes in the city has skyrocketed, so buyers are looking to condos as an affordable option to enter homeownership. Jazz is one of the first boutique condos in Burlington and it’s looking like there are a few more on the way. Since Jazz Condos is one of the first, it’s not only a great opportunity to enter the market, but it’s also a smart investment. According to Branthaven, there have been a lot of young homebuyers and downsizers at Jazz.

Located on Plains Road East near Waterdown Road, Jazz Condos is surrounded by cafes, recreation centres and parks, and arts and culture facilities. One of the best perks of Jazz’s neighbourhood is that it’s so close to the waterfront. LaSalle Park, which the Waterfront Trail crosses, is only a few steps away and is nestled up against the shores of Lake Ontario. For couples looking to start a family one day, there are public and Catholic schools in the area, and there are even a couple high schools.
