Unionville Condos
Main Street Unionville & Village Core, Markham, Ontario
The definitive guide to Unionville's boutique condominiums — buying, selling, current values, amenities and the village lifestyle. Researched and written by Unionville condo specialist Michael John Lau.
Everything you need to know about Unionville Condos
Unionville is one of Canada's most celebrated heritage villages — a place where tree-lined streets, 19th-century storefronts, and the tranquil beauty of Toogood Pond create a lifestyle that feels worlds away from the typical GTA condo experience.
Unlike the high-rises of Downtown Markham, Unionville's condominiums are boutique, low- to mid-rise residences — often just 4 to 8 storeys — carefully integrated into the village fabric. Buildings like Metropia, Remington Village, and The Village on Main offer generous layouts, refined finishes, and the rare luxury of stepping out your front door onto Main Street's cafés, galleries, and shops.
Whether you own a suite and are thinking about selling, you're hoping to buy into the village, or you simply want to understand what makes Unionville so special, this page brings it all together. If you'd rather just talk it through, call or text Michael at 416-700-0286.
Boutique residences in a heritage village
Unionville's condo inventory is intentionally limited. The village's heritage character and strict design guidelines mean that new condominiums are carefully scaled to complement — never overwhelm — the streetscape. The result is a collection of intimate, well-crafted buildings that feel more like private residences than institutional towers.
Leading developers such as the Remington Group, Metropia Developments, and boutique local builders have shaped the village's condo inventory. Signature buildings include Metropia Condos, Remington Village, and The Village on Main — each designed with generous ceiling heights, quality materials, and thoughtful layouts that appeal to discerning buyers.
Refined interiors for village living
Because Unionville attracts a sophisticated buyer pool — often downsizers from large nearby homes or professionals seeking a refined lifestyle — the suites here tend to be more generously finished than typical GTA condos.
Kitchens with character
Suites typically feature granite or quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, soft-close cabinetry, and open layouts that flow into the living area. Many units include built-in wine storage or breakfast bars — ideal for entertaining.
Living spaces that feel like home
Engineered hardwood or wide-plank laminate flooring, 9-foot ceilings, and oversized windows are standard. Because buildings are boutique, many suites enjoy unique exposures — some overlooking Main Street, others facing Toogood Pond or quiet garden courtyards.
Floor plans & layouts
Because Unionville's condo supply is limited, each building has its own distinct floor plan character. If you're trying to understand how your suite — or one you're considering — compares, that's exactly the kind of building-specific insight Michael provides. Request a layout-specific assessment ›
Boutique luxury, thoughtfully curated
While Unionville condos may not have the sprawling amenity decks of Downtown Markham towers, they more than make up for it with quality, intimacy, and a sense of community that larger buildings often lack.
Many buildings also benefit from their proximity to the village itself — your "amenity" is a five-minute walk to a world-class café, a yoga studio, or the banks of Toogood Pond. For buyers coming from a large home, this combination of private building amenities and village lifestyle is often exactly what they're looking for.
Canada's most charming village, right in the GTA
Unionville isn't just a neighbourhood — it's a destination. Voted one of Canada's most charming communities, the village blends heritage architecture, independent boutiques, award-winning restaurants, and a genuine sense of neighbourliness that's increasingly rare in the GTA.
Lifestyle
Morning coffee on Main Street, weekend strolls around Toogood Pond, gallery openings at the Varley, and seasonal festivals that bring the whole village together.
Who lives here
Established professionals, downsizers from nearby estate homes, artists, and buyers who value character, walkability, and a strong sense of place.
Property values
Among the most resilient in Markham. Unionville's limited supply, heritage character, and top-ranked schools create enduring demand and long-term value.
Parks, trails & green space
Unionville is surrounded by some of York Region's most beautiful green spaces. Toogood Pond Park is the crown jewel — a serene 28-hectare wetland with walking trails, bird-watching, and stunning seasonal views. Unionville Park and the Markham Trail offer additional options for walking, running, and cycling.
The jewel of Unionville
No description of Unionville is complete without Toogood Pond. This 28-hectare park is the spiritual heart of the village — a place where residents gather year-round for walks, photography, bird-watching, and quiet reflection.
A four-season destination
In spring, the pond fills with migratory birds. Summer brings paddleboarders and picnickers. Autumn paints the trees in gold and crimson. Winter transforms the landscape into a quiet, snow-draped retreat. Many Unionville condo residents count the pond as their favourite "backyard."
Connected to the trail network
Toogood Pond is part of the larger Rouge National Urban Park trail system, connecting Unionville to miles of walking and cycling paths throughout Markham and beyond. For active buyers, this access is a major lifestyle draw.
Main Street: Canada's most charming street
Main Street Unionville is the village's beating heart — a picturesque stretch of heritage storefronts housing independent boutiques, artisan shops, cafés, and some of the GTA's finest restaurants.
Shopping & Dining
From artisan bakeries and specialty cheese shops to fine dining at The Old Mill and Ciao Europa, Main Street offers a curated, walkable experience. Don't miss the weekly farmers' market in summer.
Culture & Arts
The Varley Art Gallery celebrates the work of Group of Seven member Frederick Varley and hosts rotating exhibitions. The Unionville Theatre and seasonal festivals (including the beloved Unionville Festival of Arts) bring culture to the village year-round.
Connected to the entire GTA
Despite its village charm, Unionville is exceptionally well-connected. The Unionville GO Station provides direct rail service to downtown Toronto, and major highways are minutes away.
Quick access to Highway 404 puts the rest of the GTA within easy reach by car, while the Unionville GO station offers a comfortable, scenic commute into Union Station. Pearson Airport is also comfortably accessible, making this a practical home base for professionals and frequent travellers alike.
Thinking about selling your Unionville condo?
Selling a suite in Unionville is different from selling anywhere else in Markham. The buyer pool is specific: they value heritage, walkability, and the village lifestyle. Generic online estimates routinely miss the mark here — and reaching the right buyer requires marketing that captures the charm of Main Street and Toogood Pond.
