Yorkville

Luxury condominiums and Victorian conversions, walking distance to the museums and the shopping.

Written by Nick Ntoukas, Toronto realtor · Chestnut Park Real Estate · Updated August 2026

Yorkville is the top of the Toronto condominium market and has been for some time. It was a village before it was absorbed by the city, then a counterculture district in the sixties, and it is now the address for buyers who want a full-service building, a concierge and Bloor Street at the door. The stock is polarised: a small number of high-specification towers and boutique buildings at the upper end, and behind them the surviving Victorian houses on Hazelton, Berryman and the surrounding streets, most converted to retail or offices but some still residential. Buyers here are frequently downsizing from a large house and are trading square footage for service and location.
