The Details
An era of soaring home prices will have a lot of people considering the many benefits of condo living: low maintenance costs, condo amenities, prime (often downtown) locations and, of course, the affordable price tags. Here’s a place that checks all those boxes ― a 1,069 square-foot two-bedroom unit on the 14th floor, chock full of stylish updates that just might change your perceptions of low-cost condos.
“Location, location, location,” is a cliche by now, but it definitely applies to this property: situated near the intersection of Colborne and King streets, you’re close to everything downtown. Knights game on a Friday night? You’re walking. Festivals at Vic Park? Walking. Dinner on Richmond Row? You guessed it: you’re riding the heel-toe express.
The unit itself has been considerably updated over the years and features lots of modern upgrades and design choices. As you enter, the kitchen is on your left, and features solid-surface countertops, white cabinets with frosted glass, stainless steel appliances and a glass subway tile backspash. The kitchen centres around a large island with plenty of storage and seating for three. It’s also home to a new fridge, updated last year. Just off the kitchen there’s room for a large dining room table.
The living room constitutes the other half of the open-concept layout, and features a textured white accent wall, electric fireplace and sliding glass doors out to the large balcony.
Both of the unit’s two bedrooms offer a good deal of space for furniture and storage, and both feature accent walls that match the flooring. The primary suite features a small ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower, while the second bathroom comes with a shower-tub unit with a sliding glass door.
There have been a good number of updates to this unit over the last few years. In addition to the previously mentioned features, new waterproof laminate flooring was installed throughout the unit in 2021, as was a new AC unit and a new electrical control panel. There’s also a new in-suite washer and dryer, installed in 2023. And, for a touch of luxury, the unit also had automated lights installed ― just walk into the living room, bathrooms or closets and presto, on come the lights.
The building also includes a number of attractive amenities, including an indoor pool, sauna and hot tub, shared barbecues, a tennis court and a available party room. Underground parking is included in the condo fees, and the unit comes with one reserved spot. It’s an ideal property for young professionals, small families or downsizers looking for the urban lifestyle at a reasonable price-point.
