Location & Neighborhood

Why Pickering Works

The Grand at Universal City sits in Pickering at Durham Regional Rd 22, Pickering. Waterfront city east of Toronto. Pickering Town Centre, the planned Seaton community, and Durham Live entertainment district. GO Train access to Union Station.

Pickering keeps growing—new transit, more jobs, better infrastructure. That's why pre-construction here makes sense. You're buying into a city on the upswing.

Why Pickering is Growing

  • Most affordable waterfront city in GTA
  • GO Train access to Toronto
  • Major redevelopment planned
  • Growing community

Investment Potential

The Grand at Universal City is priced better than most resale homes in Pickering. You lock in today's developer price, and by the time it's built (usually 3-5 years), the market's usually gone up. That's free equity before you even move in.

Buy at today's price, own at tomorrow's value. It's worked for thousands of GTA buyers.

Developer Confidence

Chestnut Hill Developments has been building in the GTA for years. They know what they're doing, finish on time, and build quality homes that hold their value. That matters when you're investing this much money.
