What Is Walden Pond II at 25 Austin Drive?

25 Austin Drive — known as Walden Pond II — is a luxury condominium built by Tridel, located right at Highway 7 East and Bullock Drive in the heart of Markham's Markville neighbourhood. Residents enjoy a Walk Score of 81, meaning most errands can be done without a car. Markville Mall is directly across the street, putting T&T Supermarket, Walmart, and dozens of restaurants within a four-minute walk.

The All-Inclusive Advantage: What makes Walden Pond II truly exceptional is the all-inclusive maintenance fee structure. Fees include heat, hydro, water, cable television, central air conditioning, building insurance, common elements, 24-hour gatehouse security, and parking. Buyers know their exact monthly carrying cost with no utility surprises.

The complex is nestled against a protected greenspace with a pond and walking trails, offering a lifestyle that newer condo towers simply cannot replicate. With an average market time of only 16 days, demand for these suites remains consistently high.
