The Watford is distinguished from typical pre-construction projects in the area by Boutique residences in historic Unionville. The Conservatory Group is known for Conservatory Gardens, Beverley Hills and multiple GTA communities, and The Watford extends that focus. Buyers researching the project should review the developer's official brochure and floor plan set for the current confirmed specifications, as details are subject to change as construction progresses.
Living in Markham
The Watford sits at 162 Main St Unionville, within the Downtown Markham, Unionville, Milliken and Cornell areas. This part of Markham is one of Canada's fastest-growing municipalities, known for its technology employment corridor along Highway 404 and its heritage main street in Unionville.
Rapid transit is provided by Finch Station on Line 1 (Yonge-University), the closest TTC subway, reachable via YRT bus routes. Surface transit includes York Region Transit and Viva BRT service along Highway 7 and Highway 404, GO Transit Stouffville line service at Unionville, Centennial, Markham and Mount Joy stations. The Yonge North Subway Extension will improve regional transit access from Markham via Richmond Hill.
Nearby destinations include Downtown Markham, a new master-planned urban centre with offices, retail and residential; Unionville Historic Main Street, a 19th-century high street on Main Street Unionville; Markham Pan Am Centre, a public recreation facility with an aquatic centre; the Aaniin Community Centre and Cornell Community Park, anchoring east Markham. Markham hosts one of Canada's largest technology employment clusters, with IBM Canada, Motorola, Huawei and other tenants along the Highway 404 corridor. Markham serves a diverse mix of technology professionals, new-immigrant families and long-established residents from Unionville and Thornhill.
Buyer and Investment Considerations
The Watford may appeal to buyers seeking a hospitality-oriented condominium. The location draws on the Highway 404 technology corridor, Downtown Markham office towers, and downtown Toronto access via the Stouffville GO line. Rental demand is supported by technology sector employment, GO train access and York University access to the west.
A firm occupancy date has not been publicly released. Purchasers should ask the developer for the current construction schedule and expected interim occupancy window. Buyers should review how the hotel and residential components will operate, including the proposed maintenance fees, rental restrictions, shared facilities and any additional service-related costs.
From an investment perspective, buyers should compare The Watford's final pricing, price per square foot, suite efficiency and monthly carrying costs with existing resale condominiums in Markham and with competing pre-construction projects expected to reach completion in the same window. A large pipeline of high-rise supply is advancing at Downtown Markham and along Highway 7, which may create competing lease-up conditions. Future value and rental performance will depend on the final purchase price, carrying costs, unit layout and the amount of competing supply delivered before occupancy.
