This corner penthouse possesses many attributes buyers want in a midtown high-rise, from its secluded setting to its spacious layout inside and out, agent Boris Kholodov says.
"For the amount of space and the location, this was very good value," he says.
The relatively new 20-storey tower is situated amid single-family homes in a residential neighbourhood.
"It's also on a quiet street, unlike many condominium buildings," the agent says.
"Yet it still offers proximity to Yonge Street and Yonge and Eglinton shopping."
The 1,500-square-foot suite was designed in the southeast corner of the building with two bedrooms and a den, plus two balconies.
"It's one of the largest units in the building and it has very nice outdoor spaces," Mr. Kholodov says.
One balcony is entered through the living and dining area, which features hardwood floors, while the other is accessible from the master suite, which contains two walk-in closets and one of two four-piece bathrooms.
The second bedroom has a walk-in closet, and the eat-in kitchen is outfitted with ceramic floors, track lights and built-in appliances.
The unit comes with laundry machines, a locker and two parking spots.
Heating and water costs are covered by the monthly fee of $787, as well as the maintenance of a gym and indoor pool. Concierge is also on site.
