Nineteen suites. Seven storeys. One address that has understood what Hazelton Avenue is for since 1928.
THE ARCHITECTURE
36 Hazelton was designed by Quadrangle Architects with a defining constraint that became its defining character: the 1928 limestone facade of the original building at this address was to be preserved and integrated into the new construction. The result is a seven-storey boutique residence whose street presence reads as permanent rather than recent -- a building that belongs to Hazelton Avenue in a way that purpose-built contemporary towers do not.
Behind the 1928 limestone exterior, the building delivers the standard its buyer profile requires: 10-foot ceilings, Marana Kitchens with fully integrated Miele appliances, marble countertops and backsplashes carried through kitchen and bath, private terraces on every residence, and direct elevator access to each suite rather than a shared corridor. The building contains 19 residences. Shared elevator lobbies exist here in name only -- there are so few neighbours that the building's common areas function as private space rather than public throughput.
THE RESIDENCES
Suites at 36 Hazelton exceed 2,000 square feet across the standard floor plans, with penthouse layouts reaching 4,600 square feet. These dimensions are unusual in a seven-storey building and reflect a decision to build fewer, larger residences rather than more, smaller ones -- a decision to serve the buyer who chose this address because of what it offers, not because of what it costs.
The Marana Kitchen specification is worth understanding. Marana is among the finest custom kitchen manufacturers in Canada, and their presence in a building at this address is not incidental. It signals the finish tier at which 36 Hazelton was conceived: not at the level of imported appliances and stone countertops, but at the level where every element of the principal rooms has been selected for its own merit rather than its category.
Private terraces on every residence -- a provision that is common in building brochure language but uncommon in practice at Yorkville buildings of this scale -- give 36 Hazelton a residential quality that taller towers cannot replicate. The terrace is not a balcony. It is an outdoor room.
THE AMENITIES
The private wine tasting room at 36 Hazelton is one of the most specific and thoughtfully conceived building amenities in the Yorkville market. Twenty-one individual climate-controlled wine fridges, each assigned to a residence, allow serious collectors to maintain a cellar without the structural requirements of a private wine room in the suite itself. The tasting room is the setting for that cellar -- a space designed for use, not for marketing.
The building also provides a virtual cycling studio and a billiards room -- amenities that reflect the demographics of a residence whose buyer profile includes serious cyclists and people who have downsized from homes with games rooms. 24-hour concierge service. Valet parking. The operational standard is consistent with the building's positioning.
PARKING AND VALET
Parking at 36 Hazelton is valet-managed. With nineteen residences, the building's parking operation is among the most personalised in the city -- staff know the vehicles, the preferences, and the schedules of the people who live here. This is not a high-volume garage operation. It is a small-building service model.
PETS
Pet policies at 36 Hazelton are governed by the condominium corporation's current declaration and rules. Buyers with animals should confirm current policies through the status certificate prior to purchase. Nissan Michael can coordinate that review.
THE LOCATION
36 Hazelton sits midway along Hazelton Avenue, between Yorkville Avenue and Hazelton Lane -- the quietest and most characterful stretch of Yorkville's most residential street. The proximity to Yorkville Village mall, the galleries along Hazelton, and the restaurants on Cumberland and Yorkville Avenue gives residents immediate access to everything the neighbourhood offers without living on a thoroughfare.
For the buyer who has lived in a Rosedale or Forest Hill detached property and wants the Yorkville lifestyle without the compromises of a large tower building, the scale and address of 36 Hazelton is close to ideal. The street character is preserved. The urban convenience is complete.
THE MARKET
36 Hazelton trades at a boutique premium -- a function of the combination of address, finish standard, suite scale, and extremely limited availability. With nineteen residences, the building turns over rarely. When a suite comes to market at 36 Hazelton, it attracts buyers who have been watching the building and waiting -- because the buyer for this address knows what they want and is prepared to wait for it.
The combination of the 1928 limestone facade, the Marana Kitchen specification, and the private wine tasting room positions 36 Hazelton as one of the most distinctive residential offerings on Hazelton Avenue -- a street that already represents the distilled essence of Yorkville luxury.
