75 Chester Le Boulevard Townhouses: 48 Homes as Finch Avenue Changes

The townhouses at 1 to 75 Chester Le Boulevard are a small 1975 complex in the northwest corner of Scarborough, a few minutes from Finch and Victoria Park. Homes here rarely come up for sale, and the neighbourhood around them is about to look very different, with towers proposed along Finch. If you are thinking of buying, it helps to understand both the corporation and the change coming to its doorstep. I’m Jatin Dua, RE/MAX Quantum Realty.

A 48-home corporation from 1975

The complex runs along Chester Le Boulevard with addresses from 1 to 75, under one corporation, YCC-189, registered in January 1975. Forty-eight homes is a small corporation by Scarborough standards: large enough to have a functioning board and a professional manager, small enough that every major repair is felt by every owner.

Condos.ca lists Affable Property Management as the manager and does not record a builder. At 50 years old, the original builder matters far less than how the corporation has kept up the buildings, and that story is in the reserve fund study, the budgets and the board minutes.

Chester Le Boulevard has more than one townhouse complex along it, each its own corporation. When you see a listing on the street, check the corporation number so you are reading the right documents and comparing the right fees.

What we know about the homes

I could not find a detailed recent sale listing for this complex, so I can’t describe a typical floor plan with confidence. Condos.ca records the complex as one floor, which, as with other 1970s townhouse complexes I have reviewed, likely reflects how the record is kept rather than how many levels each home has.

Townhouse corporations of this age in L’Amoreaux are generally family plans with multiple levels and, often, a basement. Treat that as a starting assumption only. Ask for the floor plan and room measurements, and walk the home before you compare it with anything else.

Condition will vary widely. Some owners will have renovated kitchens, bathrooms, windows and heating; others will not have. Look at the electrical panel, the heating and cooling equipment and the plumbing, and ask the seller what has been replaced and when. Those answers can move the real cost of a home here by tens of thousands of dollars.

Think about stairs as well. Multi-level townhouses work well for young families, but a buyer planning to stay into retirement should check whether the main floor could take a bedroom later, and how far the parking is from the front door.

Finch Avenue East is about to change

The biggest thing happening near this complex is on Finch. A short distance away, at 2930 to 2948 Finch Avenue East on the north side just east of Victoria Park Avenue, 95 Developments has applied to replace a low-rise plaza with three condominium towers of 14, 26 and 28 storeys and 959 homes, according to UrbanToronto. The revised application was resubmitted to the City in early 2026.

The same plan includes a new public street along the east side of the site, eventually connecting north to Dunsay Place, and a public park of about 1,083 square metres. UrbanToronto also notes that Finch Avenue East has been formally designated an Avenue in City planning policy, which supports more mid-rise and high-rise building along the corridor over time.

For an owner on Chester Le, that means construction nearby for several years if the project proceeds, followed by more people, more shops and possibly a new park within walking distance. Low-rise owners usually worry most about the construction phase. In my experience, the longer-term effect of new shops, services and a park nearby tends to be positive. Transit and school details are in the data panel on this page.

Parking, barbecues and the shared items

Condos.ca lists a parking garage and visitor parking, and says barbecues are permitted. I could not confirm whether the garage is a private garage in each home or a shared structure. Ask on your tour, because it changes what the corporation has to maintain.

If there is a shared underground garage, its waterproofing, slab and drainage are some of the largest costs a 1970s corporation faces. If each home has its own garage, the big items are more likely to be roofs, windows, brick and the private roads and walkways. Either way, the reserve fund study should show when each item was last done and what is coming.

Barbecues being allowed is a small detail that matters to many families. Read the rules anyway; some corporations limit fuel type or where you can use one.

No homes for sale when I checked

There were no homes listed for sale here when I checked, and one listed for rent. With 48 homes, sales are infrequent, and condos.ca does not publish an average price per square foot for the complex.

To price a home here, I start with recent sales inside YCC-189, then widen to other 1970s townhouse complexes around Finch and Victoria Park and on Chester Le Boulevard, adjusting for size, basement finish, updates and end-unit position. Compare fees on what they include, not just the monthly number.

The one home listed for rent is a reminder that some owners here are landlords. Ask the manager what share of homes are rented and whether the corporation has any leasing rules, because that mix affects how the complex is run and how quickly homes turn over.

Because homes rarely come up, it helps to know the complex before one does. My building sold report shows what has actually traded here.

There is no pool or clubhouse listed, so there are no shared facilities to staff or rebuild. The fee goes to insurance, management and the buildings themselves, which is where you want it in a 50-year-old complex.
