Trailside 2.0 establishes Distrikt
August 18, 2020

Trailside 2.0 establishes Distrikt as leading developer in Oakville

With 2000 units in its Oakville pipeline, Distrikt is bringing affordable luxury to a city that is consistently listed as the most desirable place to live in the GTA. Trailside 2.0 is the second phase of Distrikt’s Trailside community, offering a range of spacious condominium and townhome units. Inspired by Oakville’s urban amenities and expansive outdoor lifestyle, Distrikt’s co-founders believe the burgeoning city is poised for sustained growth and success.

“Oakville is an ideal location that has until recently been largely overlooked by the multi-residential development industry. It was just designated an Anchor Hub, and the Oakville GO Station is the second busiest outside of Union Station. Oakville has fully established itself as its own dynamic city, offering the best of retail, dining, public spaces and an unbeatable outdoor lifestyle. It’s close enough to Toronto without feeling overcrowded, but it also has its own personality and a thriving economy,” says Distrikt co-founder Emil Toma.

Designed to rival any higher-end project in Toronto, Distrikt Trailside mixes traditional masonry craftsmanship with modern brass elements and sleek forms. Suites feature darker, natural finishes like stone and wood, which are illuminated by floor-to-ceiling windows that flood spaces with natural light. Designer kitchens and bathrooms feature cabinetry from Italy, offering urban sophistication.

“Historically, Oakville has had a traditional design sensibility, but that’s beginning to shift. With Trailside 2.0, we wanted traditionalism and modernism to co-exist in the same space,” says Dominic De Freitas, Principal at Figure3, the project’s interior design lead. “With luxury fashion as an inspiration, we pushed the design boundaries with this project, elevating the living experience for residents.”

Distrikt Trailside 2.0 offers a total of 349 suites with nine to 10 ft. ceilings, and over 15,000 sq. ft. of indoor and outdoor amenity space. Residents can feel secure with the addition of a 24-hour concierge, comfortably workout in the fitness studio, or host friends and family on private terraces fully equipped for outdoor cooking. On the ground floor, lifestyle retail has been designated for boutique spaces like a café, gallery or studio.

As big believers in technology, Distrikt has ensured each purchase at Trailside 2.0 includes access to a personal artificial intelligence assistant. Residents can rely on their personalized “Distrikt AI” to seamlessly connect with all of the services and amenities the building has to offer.

“Distrikt AI will welcome you home at night and get you safely inside. It will securely receive parcels and integrate security cameras, doorbell cameras and digital locks. It helps book condo amenities and controls energy usage. It’s a central dashboard in your unit and on mobile intended to make home life easier – and it’s standard in every unit,” says Toma.

Located in central Oakville, on Dundas Street West, Trailside 2.0 is within walking distance of community centres and sports complexes, restaurants and retail, multiple highly ranked schools, and is within 5 km of the Oakville GO Station. The location is perfect for commuting into Toronto or enjoying the comfortable convenience of Oakville living, including 2,500 acres of public greenspace, beautiful shoreline and verdant ravines.

“The average Toronto buyer has an annual income of $92,000 a year. That means they are usually capped at under one million dollars for a new home purchase, and inventory in that price range is hard to come by,” says Eric Kuzuian, co-founder of Austin Birch, who is leading sales on the project. “With the Trailside community, Distrikt is opening up Oakville to a whole new category of buyer.  Purchasers are discovering that they are able to get a product that rivals any midrise in Toronto, walkable to all amenities, at a significant cost advantage.”
