Word of mouth is a powerful t hi ng. “My clients already owned a unit in the building but in 2008 when they heard that this penthouse was coming on the market, they quickly notified the agent that they were very interested. It never went on the market,” says listing agent Bram Siskind of Harvey Kalles Real Estate.
Ideal for those who want t he t op l ocation and t he t op f eatures, t his almost 4,000- square- foot suite offers both.
It also has more than 1,700 square feet of outdoor space that makes it an entertainer’s dream year-round.
“This penthouse is perfect for anyone looking to live in a fabulous building in a beautiful suite in the heart of the city,” Siskind says.
“The floor- to- ceiling, wallto- wall windows through- out all the main rooms help create a sense of being in a house, and having easy access to beautiful outdoor space adds to that feeling.”
The terrace includes a pergola, a built- in barbecue, a sprinkler system, speakers and lighting.
“The suite has seen some fabulous parties over the years.
“The previous owners agreed to have it used in a movie,” he says.
Four skylights bring natural light into the three- bedroom suite, Siskind says.
“The master bedroom has floor- to- ceiling windows so while lying in bed, you are completely awed by the unobstructed view of the CN Tower.”
The foyer has a 12- foothigh ceiling. In addition to a formal dining room and a living room that has a floor- to- ceiling fireplace, there is a renovated kitchen and a breakfast/family room.
An exercise room features a three- piece bathroom and a walkout to the terrace for fresh- air workouts. The office has a built- in desk and bookcase ready for an entrepreneur who wants to work in the comfort of their own home.
The suite comes with four underground parking spaces and three lockers ( one is a temperature- controlled wine cellar).
“This space would be ideal for anyone who loves to entertain, for top executives, sports figures and downsizers looking to transition from their large homes in the city for the convenience of condo living,” Siskind says. Its vibrant Yorkville address is a bonus.
