Wilson West is a 12-storey condo at 1184 Wilson Avenue, west of Keele Street in North York. First Avenue is the builder. Suites range from one to three bedrooms and start at $492,900, which is low for a new building inside the City of Toronto.
Why a 12-storey building is different
Most new Toronto condos are towers of 30 to 60 storeys. A mid-rise has fewer suites, fewer elevators to wait for and usually a quieter lobby. It also has fewer owners to share the cost of amenities and repairs, so look closely at the estimated maintenance fee and at what the building includes. A short list of amenities is a good sign in a small building, because a pool or a large gym is expensive to split among a few hundred owners.
Three-bedroom suites are offered here, which is uncommon. Families looking for a condo alternative to a house in North York should ask for those plans first, since builders make few of them.
Price against resale
The average resale condo apartment in the City of Toronto sold for $651,648 in August 2026. Wilson West starts about $159,000 below that. The starting price is for the smallest suite, so check the size, and ask whether parking is available and what it costs.
Deposit
The deposit is 15 per cent spread over 720 days. On $492,900 that is $73,935 paid over two years, with the balance due when the building registers after September 2028.
Getting around
This is a driver-friendly location. Highway 401 is two minutes away and Yorkdale is about eight. Wilson subway station on Line 1 is a nine-minute drive or a bus ride along Wilson Avenue, so it is not a walk-to-subway address. Downsview Park, Costco and a Metro grocery store are all close.
Questions to ask
- What is the estimated maintenance fee per square foot?
- How many three-bedroom suites are there, and on which floors?
- Is parking sold with every suite size?
- Are development charges capped in the agreement?
Closing costs at the starting price
Land transfer tax on $492,900 in Toronto is about $12,666, or $4,191 for a first-time buyer after rebates, including Toronto's municipal tax. New homes also carry builder closing adjustments such as development charges, utility connections and Tarion enrolment, which are set out in the agreement and are often capped on request. Have a lawyer review the agreement during the 10-day cooling-off period on a new condominium. The land transfer tax calculator and the HST rebate guide cover the rest.
