8 Kingsbridge Crt Condos: 60 Suites, Heat and Parking in the Fee

8 Kingsbridge Court is a practical building for a practical buyer. It is six storeys and 60 suites, registered in 1991, on a cul-de-sac just south of Bathurst and Finch, and its suites run up to three bedrooms at prices that are hard to find anywhere else in the city. There is no pool or concierge, and that is part of why the numbers work. I’m Jatin Dua, RE/MAX Quantum Realty.

A mid-size building on a quiet court

Kingsbridge Court is a short residential court rather than a through street, so the building is set back from the traffic on Bathurst and Finch. For a six-storey building near a major intersection, that is a real benefit at night.

Sixty suites is a comfortable size. It is large enough to spread the cost of a roof or elevator project over a reasonable number of owners, but small enough that the board and the manager are reachable and you will recognise your neighbours.

The corporation number, MTCC-1000, dates the registration to December 1991. That gives the building more than three decades of operating history, and that history is something you can read. Ask for the last two reserve fund studies, not only the current one, so you can see whether planned work was actually done on schedule.

Suites up to three bedrooms

I could not find a published square-footage range for the whole building, but the suite mix includes three-bedroom layouts, which is the detail that sets it apart from most condos built since.

Three-bedroom condo suites are increasingly rare in new buildings, where developers favour studios and one-bedrooms. A family that needs three bedrooms and cannot afford a freehold house in North York has very few options, and older mid-rises like this are where most of them sit.

Ask for the floor plan and the exact square footage of any unit you are considering, and confirm the number of bathrooms, the laundry set-up and the balcony. In a 1991 building, also check whether the kitchen and bathrooms are original, and budget for updating them if they are. A dated suite at a lower price can be the better buy if the building itself is sound.

What the fee covers

The fee includes common elements, heat, parking, building insurance and water. Hydro is not listed, so expect your own electricity bill, which in a larger suite with air conditioning can be noticeable in summer.

Parking being in the fee matters here. In a neighbourhood where most households drive, having a space bundled in rather than paying separately makes the monthly cost easier to predict. Confirm in the status certificate which space and locker come with the unit.

The amenities are minimal: visitor parking, a security system and permission to barbecue. There is no gym, pool or party room recorded. That keeps operating costs down, and I would expect the fee to be spent mostly on heating, maintenance and the reserve fund. Ask for the current budget, which breaks down exactly where each dollar goes, and compare the reserve contribution with what the latest study recommends.

Life near Bathurst and Finch

Westminster-Branson runs along Finch west of Bathurst and north to Steeles. It is a busy part of North York with many apartment buildings along its main roads, and Bathurst Manor lies just to the south.

Green space is the neighbourhood’s hidden strength. G. Ross Lord Park, the Finch Avenue hydro corridor and the West Don Parklands are all part of the area, and the parklands connect to the city’s ravine system. North York General Hospital’s ambulatory care centre is also in the neighbourhood.

For a family, the combination is the point: a court with little through traffic, large parks within the neighbourhood and a suite with enough bedrooms. That is the kind of daily life most buyers associate with a house, at a condo price.

Bathurst is gradually adding mid-rise condos. A nine-storey, 142-unit building was proposed in 2020 at 4700 Bathurst Street, between Sheppard and Finch, and more applications of that kind are likely along the corridor. Nearby transit, schools and shops are in the panel on this page.

Pricing: among the most affordable in the area

Condos.ca does not show an average price per square foot for this building. With 60 suites, there are usually only a handful of sales a year, so the panel’s recorded sales are your best reference.

When I checked in October 2026, two suites were listed for sale with asking prices from $450,000 to $465,000, and monthly fees on those listings ran from about $787 to $945. One suite was listed for rent. Asking prices are not sale prices, so treat that range as a starting point.

For context, that range is at or below what many one-bedrooms ask in newer North York towers, for suites with more bedrooms and parking and heat included. That is the value argument, and it is a strong one if the building’s condition is sound.

Run the full monthly number before deciding. Add property tax and your own hydro to the fee, then compare it with renting a similar-sized suite nearby and with the carrying cost of a townhouse. Depending on your down payment, the owner’s monthly cost here can come out close to rent on a smaller unit, which is why first-time families look hard at buildings like this one.

One more thing to weigh is fee growth. In older buildings the fee tends to rise as the reserve fund catches up with ageing systems. Ask for the fee history and the reserve fund study’s planned contribution increases, so the number you budget for in year three is realistic.

Amenities at 8 Kingsbridge

There is little to use beyond the suite itself, and that keeps the fee focused on the building rather than facilities. If you want a gym or pool, budget for an outside membership; if you never used them anyway, this is money you are not paying for nothing.
