Days on the market: 18 Located in a building with underground access to Sheppard subway station, this two-bedroom condo unit has a split floor plan and took only 18 days to sell for 97 per cent of the listing price.

“This is one of the older condominium buildings in this area, but it is nicely appointed and many of the amenities have been recently updated. One of the most compelling features of this building is the convenience of the underground walkway,” says listing agent Karen Manzerolle. “The suite had been owned by only one family since the original building was constructed in 1988. . . . It has not undergone any major renovations or updates, and is truly a blank design canvas for the new owner. The current owner felt the 26th floor panoramic city view would be highly attractive to potential buyers. Given the intense market competition from other comparable but newer units in nearby buildings, and the average days on market in the building, this unit sold relatively quickly as we received a conditional offer in just over one week.”

Amenities in the building include a concierge, exercise room, outdoor pool, party/meeting room and squash/racquetball court.

Unit has: living room with broadloom floor and south view; dining room with southwest view and broadloom floor; eat-in kitchen with double sink and built-in dishwasher; breakfast area with window and west view; master bedroom with double closet and four-piece ensuite; second bedroom with broadloom floor and mirrored closet; three-piece bathroom.
