375 Cook Road Townhomes: Village at York Towns Near Two Transit Lines

375 Cook Road Townhomes is a complex I like for buyers who want a real three-storey home with the subway and a light rail line in the same neighbourhood. It is a 2006 Tribute Communities townhouse complex in the Village at York University, and it is the slightly younger twin of 365 Murray Ross Parkway next door. The listing data for this one has a couple of puzzles, and I will walk you through them before you get too far. I’m Jatin Dua, RE/MAX Quantum Realty.

A townhouse block in a planned university village

Tribute built the Village at York University on land bought from the university, directly south of the campus and north of Finch Avenue. It is one of the last large new-home communities to go up inside the City of Toronto, with condo townhouses, semis and detached homes in the mix. The first residents arrived in 2005, and this corporation was registered in July 2006.

The planning idea behind the Village was new urbanism: homes closer together than in a typical suburb, garages tucked onto rear laneways and balconies and terraces looking onto the street. The university set design rules for the land that ruled out high-rise towers, which is why the area still reads as a low-rise neighbourhood.

This complex is one of two Tribute townhouse corporations on neighbouring sites. 365 Murray Ross Parkway, registered in 2005, also has 73 homes and is also managed by Duka according to Condos.ca. The pair make a natural shortlist, since a buyer who likes one will usually want to see the other.

Sizes you can compare like for like

Condos.ca records homes here at about 1,283 to 1,350 square feet, a spread of under 70 square feet. Nearly every home is the same size, give or take a closet, which makes it easy to compare one sale with another.

These are three-storey homes, so plan on stairs between every part of the day: kitchen, living space and bedrooms each on their own level. For a family, that separation is often the appeal. For an older buyer, or anyone with mobility concerns, it is a dealbreaker.

Because the homes are so similar, the things that set one apart are its position in the complex, its condition, and what the owner has upgraded. Kitchens, flooring and bathrooms vary far more from home to home than the floor plans do, so judge the finishes as carefully as you would judge the price.

Two puzzles in the listing data

The first is the amenity list. Condos.ca tags this complex with a pool, a sauna, a security guard and a parking garage. Those are unusual features for a 73-home townhouse corporation, and none of them is tagged for the sister complex at 365 Murray Ross. I could not confirm them, so treat them as unverified until you see them on the property or in the corporation’s budget.

If the pool and sauna do exist, they matter, because they are expensive to run and eventually to replace, and that cost is shared among only 73 owners. If they do not, the tags are simply wrong. Either way, the status certificate and the reserve fund study will show you what the corporation is actually maintaining.

The second puzzle is fees. Condos.ca lists common elements, building insurance and parking as included here, while the sister complex next door lists air conditioning as well. That may be a genuine difference between the two corporations or an inconsistency in the data, so ask for the current fee schedule and what it covers. Heat, hydro and water are not on the list for this complex.

Life between the campus and Finch Avenue

The Village is served by three Line 1 stations, Finch West, York University and Pioneer Village. Line 6 Finch West, which the TTC opened on 7 December 2025, starts at Finch West station and runs along Finch to Humber College. Having both lines in the neighbourhood is a real advantage for a townhouse complex, since most Toronto townhouses sit far from rapid transit. The panel beside this review shows the walking times.

The university shapes the rhythm of the area. York is one of the largest campuses in Canada, and many Village homes are rented to students or owned by York staff. That supports rental demand, and it also means busier streets and more turnover during the academic year.

For green space, Black Creek and its parkland run along the western edge of York University Heights. The campus itself, with its sports fields and events, is close enough to feel like part of the neighbourhood, which was the point of building the Village there in the first place.

What the per-square-foot figure means here

Condos.ca puts the average here at about $550 per square foot. On homes of 1,283 to 1,350 square feet, that implies roughly $705,000 to $745,000, before adjusting for condition and upgrades.

That is slightly below the figure for 365 Murray Ross Parkway next door, at about $568 per square foot. The gap is small and may simply reflect which homes happened to sell, but if the fee inclusions really do differ between the two, that could explain part of it.

There were no active listings in the data I had. When one comes up, compare it with recent trades in both complexes. Ask me for the <a href=’/building-sold-report/’>building sold report and I will put the numbers side by side.

Treat the pool and sauna as unconfirmed until you see them, since they are rare in a townhouse complex this size. What you can count on is the neighbourhood itself: the campus, its athletic facilities and two transit lines close by.
