One Of The Few Two Bedroom, Two Bathroom Corner Units In Saturday At Downsview Park. Unit 919 at 50 George Butchart Drive is a rare floor plan in this building, offering two proper bedrooms each with exterior windows, something most two bedroom layouts in this complex simply cannot offer. As a corner unit, you get south sun flooding the living room throughout the day and west sun in the evening, making this one of the brightest units in the building across all hours.The layout is thoughtfully designed with generous balcony space accessible from both the living room and the bedroom, giving you outdoor access from two points in the unit. The eat-in kitchen island offers plenty of workspace and storage, making the kitchen as practical as it is stylish. A dedicated laundry room and two full bathrooms round out a floor plan that lives larger than most. One parking spot and a locker are included.The building's amenities are first class: 24-hour concierge, a full fitness centre with yoga studio, a large party room with indoor and outdoor space, games room, kids playroom, pet wash, co-working areas, rooftop terrace, and BBQ areas. Downsview Park, one of Toronto's largest urban parks at over 600 acres, is steps from your front door offering trails, sports fields, the Toronto Wildlife Centre, and year-round programming.For commuters, Downsview Park Station connects you to Line 1 subway and the GO Barrie Line for direct service to Union Station. Highways 401, 400, and Allen Road are all within minutes. Yorkdale Mall, Costco, Metro, and Humber River Hospital are all nearby.

How this lease stacks up against the local rental market
Estimated Monthly Budget
Things to Confirm Before Signing
· Are utilities included, or separate?
· How many parking spots are included?
· Is the landlord open to a 1-year or 2-year lease?
· Are pets and small renovations (paint, hooks) allowed?
· When was the last rent increase, if there is a prior tenant?
Utility estimates are approximate and vary by season, habits, and what the landlord includes. Always confirm inclusions with the listing agent.
Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Fairly Priced Rental
At $2,900/mo, this is in line with typical 2-bedroom rents in Downsview (~$2,900/mo). The rent itself may be firm, but there's often room to negotiate on lease terms — move-in date, appliance inclusions, or parking.
Condo Considerations
For condos, I always review the status certificate thoroughly. Key things I look for: reserve fund health (should be well-funded), any upcoming special assessments, rules that might affect your lifestyle (pets, rentals, renovations), and the corporation's financial statements. We'll want to verify the monthly fees and what they include.
Efficient Living
At 700 sqft, this is a more compact space. The upside: lower utility bills, less maintenance, and easier cleaning. Consider how you'll use the space - built-in storage, multi-functional furniture, and good organization become important. Great for singles, couples, or those who prefer a low-maintenance lifestyle.
About Downsview-Roding-CFB
I know Downsview-Roding-CFB well from working with many buyers and sellers here. Each pocket has its own character - let me share what I've learned about this specific street and block. During our showing, I'll point out local amenities, school catchments, and what similar homes have sold for recently.
Lease Terms to Negotiate
Don't just focus on the monthly rent — the lease terms matter just as much. I always advise my rental clients to clarify: what's included (parking, storage, utilities), the lease length options, the landlord's policy on renewals, and whether small personalizations like painting are permitted. These details can make or break your experience over 12–24 months.
Let's Walk Through It Together
Photos can't tell you about traffic noise, natural light at different times of day, or how well the landlord maintains the property. When we view it together, I'll assess the condition of appliances, HVAC, and finishes — and flag anything that might become a headache. I'll also help you understand the lease terms before you sign anything.
