About the Property
Lots of places say they have a cool vibe. This Phillipe Starck-designed loft building in the heart of King West takes it to a whole new level. Walk into the lobby, and you feel a bit like you’ve just entered a close cousin of the Mondrian in LA or the Delano in Miami.
Head into unit 210 and the feeling continues. This open-concept space is airy and bright. The design was well thought out – no cookie-cutter here – to make the best, most livable use of every inch. High ceilings and huge windows offer a feeling of roominess seldom seen in Toronto condos. Gleaming hardwood floors, high-end fixtures and industrial exposed concrete add to the sophistication of the unit. And the kitchen, with waterfall granite island, glass backsplash and smart use of cupboard space, makes entertaining look good.
The large, private balcony with BBQ hookup is a tree-lined solace from the hubbub of King West–no interior “fishbowl” views here! The building next door is just 3 stories high, so there is no giant tower looming, casting a shadow onto your space.
The bedroom is spacious and bright, with a space-saving sliding door. The den is surprisingly large and could be used for office, hobby room, nursery or killer dressing room.
The extravagant design of the building – evident in the “dinner party” installation that begins in the lobby and flows through into the central courtyard – might give the impression that the vibe of the building is a little aloof. But take a ride in the elevator, and you’ll feel the warm community between neighbours here. Amenities include a gym, party room, meeting room, visitor parking and onsite security.
One parking spot and one locker included.
About the Neighbourhood and Lifestyle
King West is the neighbourhood for you if you work hard and play hard.
Home of “Millionaire’s Row”, a stretch of chic lofts along Wellington Street, just down the street from the Thompson Hotel, residents are a short elevator ride away from positioning themselves pool-side, with drink in hand, on what are considered some of Toronto’s best rooftop patios. King ‘Westers’ are also a short walk to a slew of amazing restaurants, shops, clubs, theatres, and public transit. If you’re looking for a neighbourhood that is always ON, you’ve come to the right place.

King West is the neighbourhood for you if you work hard and play hard. Home of “Millionaire’s Row”, a stretch of chic lofts along Wellington Street, just down the street from the Thompson Hotel, residents are a short elevator ride away from positioning themselves pool-side, with drink in hand, on what are considered some of Toronto’s best roof top patios. King ‘Westers’ are also a short walk to a slew of amazing restaurants, shops, clubs, theatres, and public transit. It is very hard to skip a beat when you’re living in an area that is constantly singing.See Other BREL Listings
