Modern and Amenity-Packed Lifestyle Rental Community Coming to Sarnia, Ontario.
A new lifestyle rental community is taking shape in Sarnia. 1100 Afton, a six-storey mid-rise apartment building at 1100 Afton Drive, is currently under construction and will be ready for residents by Summer 2026.
The development will introduce 90 new rental suites to the market, offering much-needed, modern housing inventory for those looking for quality rental options in a convenient and connected location.
Designed with everyday living in mind, suites at 1100 Afton will feature open layouts, in-suite full-sized laundry, four stainless steel kitchen appliances, private balconies, natural light, individual temperature control, and more. The project’s focus is on delivering practical, well-designed homes that meet the needs of today’s renters, whether they’re downsizing, new to the area, or simply looking for comfort and community.
“1100 Afton is more than just rental housing. We are developing a lifestyle community that Sarnia hasn’t experienced yet,” says Lauren Pomerleau, a representative of the 1100 Afton leasing team. “We’ve paid close attention to what renters want: modern design, useful amenities, and a strong sense of community.”
Practical Amenities Designed for Everyday Life
Residents will benefit from a wide range of on-site amenities that support a balanced lifestyle. These include:
- An outdoor patio and community barbecue
- A fitness studio and pickleball court
- Landscaped green space with community garden
- Covered parking
- Dog run, dog wash, and car wash stations
- A common room and guest suite
- Onsite storage lockers, bicycle storage and scooter charging stations
- And more!
The building is located just minutes from grocery stores, retail, public transit, and local schools, providing convenience and connectivity in a quiet residential setting.
Built to Last with Modern Construction
From the ground up, 1100 Afton is being built to last. The building uses a total precast concrete superstructure system supplied by Stubbe’s Precast, a modern approach that offers superior strength, faster construction, and long-term durability. By manufacturing all major structural components—walls, floors, and balconies—off-site in a controlled environment, precision and quality can be ensured while accelerating the construction timeline.
“This system also means fewer potential delays for weather, helping us stay on track for Summer 2026 occupancy,” said Nick Vario, Director of Construction leading the build at 1100 Afton. “With enhanced fire resistance, sound insulation, and minimal ongoing maintenance, total precast allows us to deliver a solid, quiet, and secure home for our future residents. We’re proud to bring this level of quality to Sarnia’s rental market.”
