AN ICON OF QUIET STRENGTH

429 Walmer is a sculptural composition of glass, stone, and greenery that redefines quiet architectural luxury in Toronto’s Forest Hill. Designed by Arcadis, the building’s fluid form features rounded corners, layered terraces, and subtle textural variations that capture light throughout the day. Each elevation is crafted with restraint and precision, creating a silhouette that feels both contemporary and timeless. Extensive terracing and soft landscaping bring nature into the vertical form, while the ground level is framed by mature trees, refined paving, and seasonal plantings that connect the building to the surrounding streetscape. The result is an architectural statement rooted in calm sophistication - one that complements Forest Hill’s heritage character while establishing a new benchmark for modern refinement.

DETAILS OF DISTINCTION

Spacious layouts feature soaring 10, 11, and 12-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and expansive terraces that extend living spaces into the open air. Downsview Kitchens are custom crafted with sculpted stone countertops, oversized bullnose edges, and fully integrated Wolf, Sub-Zero, and Cove appliances, complemented by designer-selected metal accents and hidden shelving. Living areas are defined by wide-plank engineered hardwood flooring, 44-inch gas fireplaces with bespoke millwork, and elegant lighting. Primary ensuites serve as serene spa retreats, enveloped in natural stone with curbless showers, freestanding stone tubs, radiant heated floors, and Kohler smart fixtures that balance technology and tranquility. The upper-level penthouses offer a rare sense of scale and exclusivity, all with private elevators, two-storey layouts, and sweeping terraces with gas and water connections for outdoor dining and entertaining.
