The sprawling Upper Lobby, featuring the Media Lounge, Cocktail Lounge and Dining Room, encourages both informal hangouts and exciting events. Below, the Summer Kitchen transitions seamlessly into the lushly landscaped Courtyard and the expansive Pool blurs the line between indoor and out, relaxing and invigorating. The Fitness Centre and Spa, which features a Steam Room, connected Yoga Space and meditative Rain Room, renders gym memberships obsolete. The DIY Bike Tune Up Station, Self-Serve Car Wash and Pet Spa make for an easy transition between weekend adventure and weekday routine.
The Branch also features a plush and cozy Guest Suite, because these open, airy and unexpected, amenities are designed to be shared.
Climb the grand staircase to the Upper Lobby and explore the Media Lounge, Cocktail Lounge and Dining Room – three distinct and complimentary spaces designed for downtime. In the Media Lounge, have a beer and shoot some pool with your neighbour while you wait for the game to start. Or cross the glass partition into the Cocktail Lounge and sink into the banquette with a stiff drink and a solid book. Across the next partition, you’ll find the Dining Room.
In the centre of the Dining Room sits a stunning oversized dining table. Like the best dining spaces in the most talked about restaurants, the Dining Room at The Branch is as luxurious as it is intimate. Secure for your next party a showy private chef and an adventurous sommelier and your guests will never forget their first dinner at The Branch.
For a casual dinner with more scenery than show, descend the stairs to the Summer Kitchen. This Courtyard-facing gathering space features a large harvest table, full chef’s kitchen, and sliding glass partitions that eliminate the line between Kitchen and Courtyard. Outside, BBQs and lavish lounge seating epitomize this community hub, which benefits from immaculate landscaping and a natural-light-maximizing Southern exposure.
Join old and friends and new, and watch a lazy afternoon become a lively evening, surrounded by excellent food and better company.
Dive beneath the surface of the Pool and glide towards the row of partially submerged loungers. Look up – you’ll find yourself under a double-height ceiling rife with architectural details. Back in the deep end, a fireplace warms the deck. A cozy cabana bed and sunken L-shaped hot tub beckon from the left. Along the outer edge, an extended Sun Deck with retractable glass walls separates the Pool from the Courtyard. Press a button to remove the wall entirely and head outside to dry off.
The Fitness Centre is a sanctuary for both body and mind. Start your routine in the free weight-featuring, TV-connected Smart Gym. Then stretch your soul in the Yoga Space, where more TVs allow for a custom-programmed workout. After the workout, hit the Executive Showers and have a steam in the Steam Room. Or, if you’ve got time for a mindful moment before your ride to work, venture into the Rain Room and lose yourself under a massaging downpour.
