#2 – Quality Condominiums

Keynote One & Two boast uniquely designed, open-concept floor plans. Many feature spacious triangular living rooms and bedrooms, providing residents with a highly original lifestyle, to say the least. The development’s floor plans were designed with lots of edges so you don’t feel like you’re living in a cookie-cutter box.

All units feature a great flow between main areas, such as the kitchen and living spaces, highlighted by an impressive expanse of floor-to-ceiling windows with some spectacular views, especially for condos located on higher floors.

Additionally, units offer residents upscale living with high-quality finishes including granite countertops, hardwood floors, and stainless-steel appliances, to name a few. As a for-sale-only development, residents won’t have to worry about high-traffic tenants coming in and out of the building on a frequent basis.

#3 – Sunterra Market

With Sunterra Market located at the bottom of the Keynote Towers, it’s hard not to be envious of residents above. What’s not to like about having immediate access to Sunterra’s health-oriented grocery, or the MARKETBar for a delicious and affordable meal? The grocery store features a second-level cooking class facility, as well as a third-floor cafeteria and outdoor patio that’s perfect for enjoying meals and drinks outdoors.

Sunterra is a family-owned company that was founded more than four decades ago on a farm in Acme, Alberta. The grocery store offers a unique European-style shopping experience, selling affordable, fresh, and wholesome foods. Despite experiencing financial turmoil recently, the company has continued to operate, providing the Beltline with access to organic and healthy foods and drinks.

#4 – MARKETbar by Sunterra

On the third floor of Sunterra Market you’ll find a café and restaurant called MARKETbar. Enjoy daily lunch and dinner specials for around ten bucks, plus a wide variety of salads, sandwiches and other homemade meals with something different being served up almost every day of the week.

If you’re more into dining, the restaurant side of MARKETbar is a classy place to sit down and relax while enjoying a good, healthy meal. Heck, you can even order take-out and bring it upstairs to eat at home if you wish!

MARKETbar also offers a wide variety of cooking classes that use in-house ingredients from the first floor. It’s an excellent way to become familiar with the grocery store and learn a few recipes while you’re at it.

#5 – Well-Equipped Fitness Facilities

Don’t have time to go to the MNP Community & Sports Centre for a workout? No problem! Keynote’s fitness facilities are fully equipped with dumbbells up to 100 pounds, bars up to 100 pounds and several cardio/weightlifting machines.

Having an excellent fitness facility right at home can make a huge difference when it comes to living a healthy lifestyle. Heck, there’s even a hot tub! Many condo buyers love the fact that Keynote’s facilities are so well equipped, so well, in fact, that gym membership elsewhere isn’t even necessary.
