“Chartwell Guildwood returns with a brand-new retirement residence reflecting the heritage of Guildwood Village.”
Welcome to the Neighbourhood
In the words of noted Canadian author Pierre Berton, a stroll through Guildwood Village is like a “walk through history.” Established in the 1930s as a place of inspiration for renowned and hopeful artists, the community still retains remnants of its cultural heritage, with architectural fragments from historical buildings in Toronto—such as sculptures from the old Bank of Montreal building and art deco pieces from the façade of the old Toronto Star building—still dispersed throughout the neighbourhood. Rustic woodland trails, upscale 1950s homes and the Scarborough Bluffs further add to the charm of Guildwood Village, which is considered one of Toronto’s most beautiful neighbourhoods.
Located at the corner of Kingston Road and Guildwood Parkway, the drive through Guildwood Gates into the neighbourhood makes for a grand entrance, with winding roads and cul-de-sacs reducing traffic and enhancing privacy. Here, you’ll find our local community is not only celebrated for its artistic traditions, but also for its natural splendour. In fact, Chartwell Guildwood backs onto lush Guildwood Park and Gardens, where you may find yourself enjoying a walk or taking in stunning views of Lake Ontario from Guildwood Beach. South Marine Park, Grey Abbey Park, Elizabeth Simcoe Park, Poplar Park and Sylvan Park are also in the vicinity. Should you instead be in the mood for good conversation and delicious treats, you’ll find Guildwood Tea Room & Café—a three-minute walk from the residence—is considered the place to meet up with friends in the community.
