Welcome to The Bedford, a collection of elegantly appointed private residences ByBurnac, etched into the fabric of Toronto’s celebrated Yorkville-Annex neighbourhood. Inspired by the revered Haussman architecture that defines Paris with iconic appeal, The Bedford is a triumph of creativity. This sleekly modern building rises 13 storeys above one of Canada’s most prestigious enclaves, offering unobstructed views of this treasured neighbourhood, that will remain untouched, thanks to the area’s protected heritage designation.

At Bedford and Davenport, the Annex meets Yorkville Village – one of the world’s most famous shopping and dining districts. The Bedford is located at the gateway to Yorkville, with Toronto’s Mink Mile just a short walk away. Residents will appreciate easy access to the city’s top amenities, by way of The Bedford’s close proximity to the city’s extensive transportation network

Set in an area that offers the conveniences of the city with the comfort and quiet of the suburbs, the neighbourhood remains an outstanding example of heritage preservation and endearing character. Residents of The Bedford can take in the unobstructed views of this treasured neighbourhood, which will remain untouched thanks to the locale’s protected heritage designation

The historic Yorkville-Annex neighbourhood was the city’s most exemplary community, predating Rosedale and Forest Hill. Over the years, it has been home to some of Canada’s most famous cultural and political luminaries. Strolling along the tree-lined streets past the grand homes, it’s easy to imagine this fabled neighbourhood back when it was an enclave for the most successful and privileged of the European newcomers.

Within this coveted neighbourhood, encompassing over 500 heritage buildings, The Bedford takes its place at one of the city’s most historic intersections. Davenport Road, which meanders diagonally through the city’s grid of streets, follows an ancient trail originally established by the Indigenous inhabitants, who travelled it in order to cross between the Don
and Humber Rivers. Bedford Road, laid out in 1886, counts 15 heritage buildings along its length, as it extends north from Bloor and beyond Davenport. The intersection of these two boulevards marks a celebrated address for The Bedford, and one that only a few will call home.

The Bedford, a landmark residence on a human scale, blends seamlessly with the surrounding neighbourhood, paying tribute to its historic character. The key to this accomplishment is Audax’s modern interpretation of Haussman architecture, which is evocative of the 19th century stone buildings lining the streets of Paris. With their contrasting dark mansard roofs, wrought iron balconies, and sculpted exterior stonework, these iconic buildings are emblematic of the City of Light, and give its architecture an enduring and unforgettable appeal.

ByBurnac, in collaboration with the Forest Hill Group, is pleased to offer a sophisticated and extraordinary array of personal and hospitality services. At The Bedford, residents will experience the ultimate level of service, provided by elite, 24-hour concierge and valet staff.
