Live better. Two simple words, but when put together say so much more. It becomes a statement, a commitment and mission behind everything Minto Communities does.

from location to lifestyle,a master-planned community

Minto Communities is committing to building better places to live. It stems from knowing what

makes a house a home and a location a lifestyle. It begins with an approach of doing what’s right

– from finding the right location, preserving nature, considering the right design, and committing

to sustainable practices. Everything comes together to simply make living better. It is this and

many other principles that Minto Communities puts first when developing visionary master-planned

communities. It goes beyond just buildings, it’s about building better places to live, work and play.

After launching Phase I in 2015, this nature-inspired master-planned community was carefully designed

to give residents a beautiful place to call home. The first phase of the community introduced modern

townhomes that were nestled within a lush green space that would connect to the future development

of hiking and cycling trails and a community pond. Following the complete sell-out success of Phase I,

Oakvillage released a limited collection of Rear Lane Townhomes that instantly sold out. Building on this

phenomenal success, Minto Communities is thrilled to be expanding our vision with the development of

lifestyle condominiums and townhomes.

REAR LANE TOWNHOMES - LAUNCHED 2017

STACKED TOWNHOMES

Blending the best of nature and modern architecture, the community of Stacked Townhomes represents

an intimate collection for beautiful living. Expansive layouts offer abundant space to live in, highlighting

thoughtfully designed kitchens, magnificent 2-bedroom suites and the highest quality and style in features

and finishes.

STACKED TOWNHOMES

CONDOS

Inside, you will embrace thoughtful design that welcomes you home to distinct style in a lobby

featuring a comfortable lounge, a fireplace and a stunning view of the beautifully landscaped

outdoor amenity space. Private amenities include a fitness centre equipped with the latest equipment

and a stylish open-concept Social Lounge, perfect for hosting private functions, or simply relaxing

with friends.

The condos at Oakvillage offer a complementary lifestyle that connects nature to community

with a visionary new concept inspired by the Dutch design principle of a “woonerf”. Streetscapes

are designed to minimize the impact of traffic and maximize pedestrians’ enjoyment of nature.

The community is linked with lushly landscaped, paved pathways that include “outdoor rooms”,

complete with Muskoka chairs, tiered play and lounge structures, and bicycle paths leading to

the natural heritage trails.

GYM

Set against a beautiful backdrop of tranquil greenspaces, Oakvillage is conveniently located at Dundas

and Trafalgar Road. The community invites residents to explore an abundance of breathtaking nature just

outside their door. Inspired by natural bounty, this community is a playground; adventure out to the scenic

woodlot, look for butterflies and birds around the pond. Go for a jog or just lose yourself in the Zen of

over 1.5 km of nature trails that weave through your community.

At Oakvillage, pedestrian-friendly walkways have been designed to thoughtfully connect the

community. Bringing urban conveniences right to your doorstep, a planned retail complex for

your daily essentials is just minutes away.

Living in Oakvillage is a lifestyle choice, with cachet and convenience in a beautifully designed

master-planned community. Quality craftsmanship paired with affordable design is a place to

call home.

“It’s a way of life, infused with charm, character

and a lot of convenience.”

There is an ideal balance that blends the beauty of nature with modern living. Oakville is a place that

can promise you the best of both worlds. Whether you’re an urbanite or a nature lover, a cyclist or

OAKVILLE OFFERS A CLOSE-KNIT COMMUNITY WHERE

THERE’S NEVER A LACK OF FUN TO BE HAD! HERE’S

OUR TOP 10 FUN-IN-THE-SUN EVENTS TO MAKE SUMMER

THE BEST SEASON TO LIVE IN OAKVILLE.

Heritage, culture and lots of character! In the heart of Oakville, a strong sense of history

and the contemporary come together to create a unique place to live.

true community values

celebrate the past

Incorporated as a town in 1853, the community’s historic roots actually stretch back decades earlier to

1827, when Oakville’s founding father, Colonel William Chisholm, purchased 940 acres of uncleared land

from the Crown at the mouth of Sixteen Mile Creek and then laid out the village’s original street grid,

which remains intact to this day. Along the quaint streets of Old Oakville are vintage 19th century homes

built of brick or wood. Among the oldest is the woodframed Thomas House, constructed in 1829,

situated next to Oakville’s original 1835 post office in Dingle Park near the lake. But Old Town is replete

with period houses, many of them displaying the date of construction and the name and occupation of

its owner. Here are just a few historical gems: the James MacDonald House (1837), the Justus Williams

House (1838), the James Boon House (1878).

Arguably the crown jewel of residential Old Oakville is the Erchless Estate, the red brick Georgian

mansion of Oakville’s first mayor, Robert Kerr Chisholm. Situated next to Lakeside Park and with a

commanding view of Oakville Harbour, this stately mansion is now home to the Oakville Museum.

Attached to the Chisholm residence is the equally historic 1856 Custom House, which was a vital

cog in the family’s extensive business interests. Scattered across old town are numerous other

historic structures – churches, assembly halls, office blocks – reflecting the town’s importance in

pre-confederation Canada. Among them the Canada Presbyterian Church (1850), the Scotch Kirk

(1850-55), and St. Andrew Roman Catholic Church (1840), which enjoys the distinction of being the

only church remaining in Oakville still in its original form.

Walk on the path of those who walked before us. Step back in time and explore the historic buildings

and gardens on the four-acre Erchless Estate, once home to Oakville’s founding family. Participate in

tours of the Chisholm family home, special events and exhibitions showcasing the stories of our town.

For a different type of historical experience, enjoy almost 60 kilometres of Oakville Heritage Trails

that link the town’s natural and architectural heritage. The Trails are accessible to walkers, joggers

and cyclists and feature information stations, telling more than eighty stories about Oakville territory

and its people.
