Walking through the model of Brigil’s St Michaels II development at Petrie’s Landing on a snowy day, one gets the feeling of having been transported from suburban Ottawa to somewhere far more magical. The European inspired design of these four storey buildings creates the feeling of a rural retreat and with the development surrounded by nature on all four sides, it’s hard to believe you’re only a few minutes from the many amenities Orleans has to offer.
The unique aspect of these condos is the layout of the building. Unlike regular condo buildings which have a long hallway running along each floor with doors along it, St Michaels II has gone for a different approach with two units per floor accessed from a small central hallway. This inspired design means that each unit runs the entire width of the building, giving both a North and South view(or East and West depending on the position of the building) from different sides of the condo.
No luxury has been spared in the finishing of these 1213 sq.ft condos. From stylish hardwood to granite countertops, designer faucets to central air conditioning, the standard features mean there’s very little to be upgraded – it’s already done for you.
The open plan kitchen offers a huge island with a double sink. The island acts as a breakfast bar – perfect for sipping your morning cup of coffee and admiring the view. An attractive built in cupboard with glass doors offers plenty of storage, as does the walk in pantry.
The large open plan living/dining room is the perfect space for cosying up on a Winter weekend. A gas fireplace offers an attractive focal point and dual aspect windows available in the end units ensure the space is filled with light. When the snow clears, the 20ft balcony is the perfect space for entertaining. Big enough to fit a sofa and table, the balcony becomes a large extension of your living space during the Summer months.
A powder room off the kitchen is perfect for guests whilst the main bathroom is incredibly spacious. The large soaker tub features designer touches such as a tiled facade and stylish faucets in the middle create a hotel-like vibe. An oversize 4′ x 3′ shower stall reinforces the luxury hotel feeling that the bathroom offers. Tall built in cabinets give valuable storage often lacking in condos whilst your in-unit laundry room is attached to the bathroom and also offers plenty of storage space.
The second bedroom is perfect for an office or den and again offers dual aspect windows in the end unit floorplan. The master bedroom has large bay windows and a walk in closet.
With condos starting at $296,800, monthly fees are $236 and include building maintenance and snow removal. With thoughtful extras like a bike storage room, the community’s proximity to nature has been taken into consideration. Petrie Island beach is a short walk away and trees in every direction mean that coming home to St Michaels II at Petrie’s Landing truly does feel like an escape.
These four condo buildings are only a part of Brigil’s planned community at Petrie Landing. With a second tower planned at Petrie I and The Avenue, a condo building with elevator and underground parking under construction, it is set to be a vibrant community.
