How much does The Monarch by Windsor cost? (checked Oct 2, 2026)
Windsor’s floor plans page listed five available homes on Oct 2, 2026, showing both base rent and a “Total Monthly Leasing Price”. The one-bedroom A5R in unit 306 (681 sq ft, available now) showed $2,337 base rent and $2,675.14 total on a 15-month term, and the one-bedroom A1D in unit 2402 (888 sq ft) showed $3,167 base and $3,505.14 total. The B2F in unit 911 (1,400 sq ft, available Oct 8) showed $3,682 base and $4,020.14 total on an 11-month term. The site’s homepage described the $2,675 and $4,020 totals as its starting prices for one- and two-bedrooms.
The $338.14 gap between base rent and total is the same for every listed home and equals the sum of the monthly items in Windsor’s Costs Overview, which includes estimated utility amounts based on the prior year’s averages. Actual utility bills vary. No special or concession was displayed on the pages I read, so ask the office whether any offer applies to your move-in date.
