Central East, Ajax

Central East townhouses for sale

Townhouses in Central East are mostly condominium rows put up in the 1970s and 1980s along Harwood Avenue North, Kingston Road East and Salem Road: two-storey units with three bedrooms, a garage or a numbered surface spot, a small fenced yard and a fee that pays for roofs, windows, paving and grounds. A smaller group of freehold and common-elements rows from the 1990s and later sits on the infill sites off Delaney Drive and near Rossland Road East. They are the first rung for buyers who want to stay in central Ajax near the Durham Centre stores, the schools and the two 401 crossings, and they attract downsizers from the detached streets who want to keep a garage and a yard. Order the certificate and study three things in it: how the reserve fund stands, when the roofs and windows were last done, and whether a special assessment is pending; then check whether the unit backs onto Kingston Road or Harwood traffic, and confirm the parking arrangement, since visitor spaces in the older complexes are limited.

Questions people ask about Central East

What do condo fees in the older Central East complexes cover?

Usually the exterior: roofs, windows and doors on a replacement schedule, driveways and walkways, landscaping, snow removal and common insurance, and in some 1970s corporations water or bulk cable as well. The declaration inside the certificate spells out what is included, and the reserve fund study shows whether the fee is keeping up.

Are Central East townhouses walkable to shopping?

The rows along Kingston Road East and Harwood Avenue North are close on foot to the Durham Centre stores, Costco, the Cineplex and the plazas at Harwood and Rossland, and PULSE 900 and route 216 stop nearby. Units deeper in the subdivisions are a longer walk but still inside the same grid.

How do I judge a 1980s townhouse complex before buying?

Walk the whole complex, not just the unit: look at the roofs, the driveways and the fences for deferred work, ask how many units are rented, and go through the reserve fund study plus two years of board minutes for special assessments or lawsuits. A well-run 1980s corporation that has kept its reserve funded is a sounder buy than a newer complex about to raise fees.
