Living at PACE on Main, Whitchurch-Stouffville: 2027 Buyer and Renter Guide

By Jatin Dua · Broker of Record, RE/MAX Quantum Realty · Updated 2 November 2026 · 11 min read — PACE on Main is a five-storey, 67-suite condo on Main Street, Stouffville. Here is what it offers, what condos sell and rent for, and what to check.

This guide is for anyone thinking about buying or renting a condo in Stouffville in 2027, and for owners at PACE on Main who want to know what their suite is worth. Stouffville has very few condo apartment buildings, so I picked the best-known one in the old downtown and walk you through its layout, fees, prices, rents and the checks I would make before signing.

Where is PACE on Main, and what is nearby?

PACE on Main sits on the southeast corner of Main Street and Lloyd Street in downtown Stouffville, part of the Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville in York Region. Geranium Homes, the builder, describes it as the first condominium built right on Main Street in Stouffville. Its brick-and-stone front was designed to fit in with the older heritage buildings along the street.

The location is the main reason people buy here. According to Geranium, you are within walking distance of:

• Main Street cafes, restaurants and shops, plus a weekly farmers’ market
• Stouffville GO Station, a few steps away on Main Street
• Memorial Park and the trail system that connects to it
• The Whitchurch-Stouffville Leisure Centre for swimming and programs
• 19 on the Park, the Lebovic Centre for Arts and Entertainment

Bigger stores such as a grocery store and pharmacy are a short drive away rather than a short walk. For drivers, Highways 48, 404 and 407 are all reachable from downtown Stouffville.

Who built PACE on Main, and when was it finished?

PACE on Main was built by Geranium Homes, the housing division of Geranium Corporation, a builder based in Markham. When sales started in 2014, Geranium said it was the company’s first mid-rise condominium. The plan called for:

• A five-storey building with 67 suites
• Pace Credit Union, which owned the site, returning to the ground floor
• More commercial space facing Main Street

Construction was getting ready to start in spring 2016, according to Geranium’s own advertising. The construction updates posted on the builder’s website run from June 2017 to October 2018. That gives you a rough window for when the first owners moved in, but it is not a confirmed occupancy date. Your lawyer can confirm the registration date of the condominium corporation from the status certificate.

The structure is reinforced concrete with metal stud walls, according to Geranium’s features list. Concrete mid-rises tend to feel quieter between floors than wood-frame buildings, which matters in a small building where you will know your neighbours.

What suite sizes and layouts does PACE on Main have?

Geranium marketed the building in a few rounds, and the published details changed slightly over time:

• 2014 launch: suites from 650 to 1,129 square feet on floors two to four, from large one-bedroom to two-bedroom plus den with two bathrooms. Penthouses went up to 1,517 square feet and were priced one by one.
• 2016 update: one- to three-bedroom designs from 650 to 1,368 square feet, with more than half the 67 suites already sold.
• Condo townhomes: the builder’s current page describes two-storey street-level designs with direct inside access to an underground parking space.

The standard features list is useful when you compare a resale suite with one in a newer building. It includes nine-foot ceilings in the main rooms, granite kitchen counters, quartz bathroom counters, a stacked washer and dryer, and a two-pipe fan coil heating and cooling system. Every suite came with one parking space, and Geranium said all but one layout has a balcony.

One detail many buyers miss: each suite has its own hydro, water and gas meters. That usually means you pay those bills yourself, on top of the monthly condo fee. Ask the seller for a year of utility bills.

What amenities does PACE on Main have, and what are the condo fees?

This is a boutique building, so the amenity list is short on purpose. Geranium described:

• A welcoming lobby
• The Main Street Lounge on the second floor, with seating around a fireplace, a television, a kitchen, a bar and a billiards table
• A landscaped outdoor terrace off the lounge with barbecues and dining areas

There is no pool or large gym. Geranium’s marketing said it kept the amenities modest to keep maintenance fees low, on the idea that residents would use the town’s leisure centre, parks and trails instead.

I could not find a published fee range for this building, so I will not guess one. The real number for any suite is in the status certificate. That package must be delivered within 10 days of a request and can cost up to $100, according to the Condominium Authority of Ontario. It shows the suite’s monthly fee, the budget, the reserve fund study and any special assessments or lawsuits. With only 67 suites sharing the costs, one big repair has to be split among fewer owners, so the reserve fund matters more here than in a large tower. My guide on what to look for in a condo status certificate walks through it line by line.

What do condos in Stouffville sell for in 2026?

TRREB does not report single buildings, so the numbers below cover all of Whitchurch-Stouffville. Please read them as the backdrop, not a price for your suite.

Source: TRREB MLS data via REALM, January–October 2026 vs the same period of 2025. Town-wide medians, not building figures.

Two things stand out. First, only 11 condo apartments sold in the whole town in ten months. Second, the median went up while most of the GTA went down. With so few sales, the median moves with whichever suites happened to sell, such as a few larger units. TRREB’s MLS Home Price Index, which adjusts for that mix, put the Stouffville apartment benchmark at $528,800 in October 2026, down 14.99% from a year earlier. In October itself, TRREB recorded three condo apartment sales in Stouffville and 23 active listings.

So the honest answer is that Stouffville condo values are hard to read from averages. A suite at PACE on Main should be priced from recent sales in the same building first, then similar mid-rises nearby. My Stouffville home values guide for 2027 covers the freehold side of the market.

How much does it cost to rent a condo in Stouffville?

TRREB’s latest rental market report (Q2 2026; the Q3 report was not posted when I checked in November 2026) recorded nine apartment leases in Stouffville in the quarter. The average one-bedroom lease was $2,569 (four leases) and the average two-bedroom was $3,010 (five leases). Across York Region, one-bedrooms averaged $2,190 and two-bedrooms $2,772.

Those Stouffville averages come from a tiny number of leases, so treat them as a rough guide. They do tell you that renters who want a newer condo near the GO train in Stouffville have very few choices, which is good news for landlords and a reason renters should move fast when a suite comes up.

Rent control is worth checking. Ontario’s rent increase guideline is 1.9% for 2027, but it does not apply to units first occupied for residential purposes after 15 November 2018. PACE on Main’s construction updates ran to October 2018, so whether a particular suite falls under the guideline depends on its first occupancy date. Ask the landlord, and keep the answer in writing.

How do you get to Toronto from PACE on Main?

The GO train is the big draw. Stouffville GO Station is a short walk from the building, and Geranium’s marketing put the train ride to Union Station at about an hour. Check GO Transit’s current schedule before you count on a particular train. Metrolinx itself describes the line today as a commuter service that it is working to turn into an all-day one.

Metrolinx is expanding the Stouffville line toward two-way, all-day service. Its project page says trains every 15 minutes or better are planned to Unionville, which is in Markham, not Stouffville. So do not pay extra for a suite today on the hope of subway-style service at Stouffville station.

If you drive, Highway 48 runs north–south nearby, and Highways 404 and 407 connect you to the rest of the GTA. Downtown Toronto by car depends heavily on traffic.

What are the pros and cons of living at PACE on Main?

Pros

• A walkable Main Street location with the GO station, park and shops close by
• Only 67 suites, so it feels quiet and you get to know your neighbours
• Concrete construction and nine-foot ceilings
• Few competing listings when you sell, because Stouffville has so few condos

Cons

• Few amenities, with no pool or large gym on site
• Separate utility meters, so your monthly costs are more than the condo fee
• Thin sales data, which makes pricing harder and can stretch selling time
• A small group of owners sharing the cost of any large repair
• GO service still built around commuters, with 15-minute trains planned only as far as Unionville

Who is PACE on Main best for?

From the builder’s own pitch and the way the building is laid out, it fits a few kinds of buyers best:

• Downsizers from Stouffville, Markham or Uxbridge who want to stay close to friends and family but stop cutting grass
• Commuters who work near a GO stop and can live with a commuter train schedule
• First-time buyers who prefer a small building and a town centre over a high-rise district

It is a weaker fit if you need a pool, a concierge, or frequent all-day transit. If you are torn between towns, my comparison of Stouffville and Markham in 2027 sets out the trade-offs.

Buying or renting at PACE on Main in 2027: what should you check?

For buyers, the checklist I use:

• Confirm what the monthly fee covers, and get a year of hydro, water and gas bills
• Read the reserve fund study and the last two years of board minutes for planned repairs
• Confirm the parking space and any locker are deeded or exclusive-use, and match the suite number
• Check rules on pets, rentals and short-term stays before you buy as an investor
• Budget land transfer tax: on the town’s 2026 median of $769,500 it works out to $11,865 under Ontario’s rates, with no municipal tax outside Toronto. First-time buyers can get up to $4,000 of that refunded

For renters, confirm the first occupancy date (for rent control), who pays each utility, and whether the parking space is included. If you are hiring help in town, my guide to choosing a realtor in Stouffville lists the questions I would ask any agent.

What to do next

1. Run the condo estimator above for a first range on a PACE on Main suite, then treat it as a starting point only.
2. Ask for every sale inside PACE on Main from the last 12 to 24 months, and compare suites of the same size and floor.
3. Request the status certificate early and have your lawyer review the reserve fund study and budget.
4. Gather a year of utility bills so you know your true monthly cost.
5. Book a call with me if you want a building-specific price before you list, offer or sign a lease.
