Spotlight Story: South Carriage Place
In this week’s spotlight story, RentCanada is featuring South Carriage Place located in London, Ontario.
This project was developed by Drewlo Holdings, a family-owned company who has built and managed over 9,000 units across Burlington, London, Kitchener, Woodstock, and Sarnia for over 60 years. In addition to construction and development, Drewlo Holdings also has years of experience building and maintaining properties of all kinds.
For our review of South Carriage Place, we have collected high-level property highlights, as well as insider details, to paint a clear picture of this up-and-coming urban location. We hope this overview will help to provide insight into the space, and help potential renters decide whether they should consider this property for their next move.
Welcome to South Carriage Place...
Located along Hyde Park Rd. in northwest London, Ontario, South Carriage Place is a beautiful rental property conveniently located near to transit, shopping malls, and a Smartcenter, accommodating a wide range of individual lifestyles.
As we explore the interior, it’s clear that residents young and old will find all their essential amenities, with high end finishings, and a great attention to detail.
Upon entering each of the units, we are instantly drawn to the 9 foot high sprawling ceilings, and the natural light as it floods through the ultra spacious living area. The stunning bay windows found in every unit allows for this gorgeous natural light to seep through, and creates a spectacular view. Additionally, every unit comes equipped with direct balcony access, overseeing lush greenery and the surrounding residential community. It boasts ideal living quarters for renters looking for space, while remaining close to the city.
Next, we tour the hub of the apartment; the kitchen. Here we find each unit is loaded with brand new stainless steel appliances, including an over the range microwave, a cabinet bank, quartz countertops, and large double sinks, making this a modern and versatile space for any renter.
As we walked towards the bedrooms, we were greeted with oversized barn doors that led into the master bedrooms, and large walk-in closet spaces for clothing and extra storage.
Finally, as we made our way towards the bathroom, we found each unit offered a luxurious full bath and shower, with a limited number of 1-bedroom units providing a separate walk-in tub and shower for easy accessibility.
In addition to your suite, the building will soon be equipped with a fitness room so you can cancel that gym membership and head down to your own personal workout zone. The property also includes a common room for hosting casual or business events, or special gatherings, and will offer a feature pool to residents in the near future.
Another great perk we feel worth mentioning is free on-site visitor parking. This highly valuable amenity makes it easy for your friends and family to stop in without having to look and pay for parking. Also, controlled access to the building gives renters confidence, safety, and security. Plus, enjoy a stress-free living environment with your own on-site building manager for urgent matters or general support.
As for price point, these notably oversized units come in at a highly competitive rate. Unlike properties with similar dimensions, South Carriage Place offers a lower monthly price point per square footage compared to its competitors, and includes all the add-ons you’ll need from a modern living space. At the time of writing, here’s what these suites offer:
| Suite | Baths | Sq. Ft. | Starting From |
| Bachelor | 1 | 493 | $850 - $950 |
| 1-Bedroom | 1 | 619 - 869 | $1150 - $1474 |
| 2-Bedroom* | 2 | 1061 - 1315 | $1750 - $2124 |

As an added incentive, The Ironstone Building Company and Drewlo Holdings have also created the Rent. Save. Own Program, for those looking to buy a house in London. Each month, renters get a $350 credit, up to $10,000, to help invest in their own Ironstone property. This is a great way to live in a fantastic space, while saving and planning for your future.
Whether you're a working professional or a retiree, everything is at your fingertips in this spacious upgraded location. You’ll enjoy the comforts of community living nestled right in the heart of the popular Hyde Park neighbourhood at South Carriage Place.
Note: This property is smoke and pet-free to provide a clean living environment for all renters.
