Investment highlights

Premium Accessibility: The Property is located along Lawrence Avenue East, one of the GTA’s primary east/west thoroughfares. Golfdale Plaza is less than 3.5 km south of Highway 401 making this location easily accessible from across the city and region.

Significant Future Upside: The Property features multiple tenant leases with expirations at rates materially below current market levels (and in the case of Giant Tiger, only one fixed rate renewal remaining) presenting substantial reset-to-market opportunities and organic revenue growth potential upon lease renewal or re-tenanting.

Strong Financials: Comprised of 30,195 SF, the Property is fully leased and boasts a healthy weighted average lease term of 4.5 years. The centre is anchored by Giant Tiger, which has been a longstanding tenant at the site since 2009.

Well Serviced by Public Transportation: The Property has excellent transit access via multiple bus routes along Lawrence Avenue East and Scarborough Golf Club Road, and Guildwood GO Station less than 3 km away, providing direct service to downtown Toronto on the Lakeshore East line.

Exceptional Demographics: The Property is surrounded by densely populated residential neighbourhoods with over 18,500 residents living within a 1 km radius, and over 121,000 within a 3 km radius.

Strategic Location for Eventual Redevelopment: Situated on an expansive 2.34 acre corner lot, the Property is primed for future high density mixed-use redevelopment.
