301 Bridletowne Townhouses: 1973 Condo Towns Near Bridlewood Mall

301 Bridletowne Townhouses gives you something most older Scarborough townhouse complexes cannot: a mall, a grocery store and a library within walking distance of your front door. It was registered in 1973, it has 102 homes, and it sits inside Bridletowne Circle, an area the City has already planned around for the next couple of decades. The age is what you have to manage.

Townhouses inside the Bridlewood plan

Bridletowne Circle loops around the Bridlewood Mall area near Finch and Warden, and it is part of the larger Bridlewood community, which the Robert McClintock Company developed in the 1960s, according to Wikipedia. Bridlewood Mall, at 2900 Warden Avenue, opened in 1975 and sits at the centre of it.

The circle is a mix of housing types. There are apartment-style condo towers such as Skygarden and Newhaven, and several townhouse complexes, including 200 Bridletowne Circle Townhouses a short way along the same road. 301 Bridletowne is one of the townhouse communities, with homes on Bridletowne Circle and on Collingsbrook Boulevard.

When you look at a listing here, confirm which street the unit fronts, where its parking is, and how far it is from the mall entrance. Within one 102-unit complex, those details make a real difference to daily life.

What the City has planned around you

The City of Toronto’s Finch Warden Revitalization Study covers the lands within Bridletowne Circle as well as Finch and Warden. It sets a vision for the next 10 to 20 years: taller buildings of 12 to 23 storeys at key sites, mid-rise on most others, and low-rise townhouses as a transition next to existing homes. It also calls for wider sidewalks, street trees on Bridletowne Circle and new signalized crossings.

Specific proposals have come and gone. UrbanToronto reported in 2016 on a 12-storey, 242-unit proposal at the southwest corner of the mall property, replacing a strip plaza. An earlier 11-storey project at the north end of the mall, Celebration Condominiums, was shelved. Wikipedia notes that the City approved a mall redevelopment in 2010 but construction did not follow.

For an owner here, the practical reading is that change is likely over time but not imminent. New towers near a townhouse complex can bring shadow and construction disruption, and they can also bring better shops and streets. Keep an eye on applications for the mall site.

The mall on your doorstep

Bridlewood Mall still carries the everyday basics: a Metro grocery store, a Shoppers Drug Mart and a Dollarama, according to Wikipedia. The Toronto Public Library branch moved into a larger space in the mall in 2024, growing to about 20,000 square feet. For a family, that is a library you can walk the kids to.

The mall has changed over the years. It opened with big-box anchors such as Kmart and Towers, was redeveloped in 1998 and 1999, and today leans toward everyday shopping rather than destination retail. That suits a townhouse family well: the things you need weekly are close, and the bigger trips are a short drive away.

That walkability is the clearest difference between this complex and many other 1970s townhouse complexes in Scarborough, where almost every errand needs a car. Transit and walking details for this address are shown in the data panel on this page.

A 1973 corporation: what to examine

YCC-113 is an early York Condominium Corporation, so this complex is now more than fifty years old. Roofs, windows, exterior doors, cladding, walkways, private roads, drainage and the parking garage have all reached at least one replacement cycle. Ask which have been done, how they were paid for, and what is scheduled next.

Condos.ca lists a parking garage. If that is a shared underground structure rather than garages attached to each home, the waterproofing membrane and concrete are among the most expensive items a corporation can face. Ask how parking is laid out, how many spaces come with each unit, and when it was last repaired.

Larlyn Property Management is listed as the manager. Ask them for the current budget, the latest reserve fund study and the last two years of board minutes before your conditions come off.

I would also ask how many units are rented rather than owner-occupied, and whether board seats are filled at each annual meeting. In a complex of about a hundred homes, engaged owners make a visible difference to how well the place is kept.

What 301 Bridletowne Townhouses costs

When I checked, two units were for sale. Asking prices across those listings ran from $699,000 to $748,000, and monthly fees ran from about $703 to $739. Two listings is a small sample, so treat that as a snapshot rather than a market value.

Condos.ca does not publish square footage or a price per square foot for this complex, so I cannot give you a per-square-foot comparison with nearby apartment condos. The more useful comparison is with other townhouse complexes on Bridletowne Circle and with freehold homes in L’Amoreaux.

A fee in the low $700s is on the higher side for an older Scarborough townhouse complex, but it means nothing until you know what it includes and how much goes into the reserve each year. A higher fee that is building a healthy reserve can be better value than a low fee that is not. For recorded sales rather than asking prices, I can pull them through my building sold report.

There is no pool, gym or party room listed, but the mall, grocery store and library nearby do much of the work an amenity package would. The fee can go to roofs, roads and parking instead.
