This two-storey condo townhouse has never been lived in. It is part of an 11-storey complex called the Perry and the townhome includes luxury features including built-in shelves and millwork, soaring ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, a private terrace and large balcony.

“We drew our inspiratio­n from a Manhattan brownstone, all the while ensuring that great attention to detail and a high level of craftsmans­hip was carried out during the constructi­on of this townhouse,” said Nargues Mansouri, vice-president and co-founder of developer Mansouri Living.

“Some of the aspects of note include European oak hardwood flooring, natural stone finishes, twelve-foot-six-inch ceilings on the main floor, and an eat-in chef’s kitchen with Gaggenau appliances,” said Mansouri.

“The insertion of a grand oak staircase connects the two floors, adding an expansiven­ess to the already impressive scale. The locally-sourced limestonec­lad main entrance leads directly to the street, with a secondary

entrance towards the undergroun­d parking,” she added.

“This is a rare opportunit­y to own a newly-built home in a boutique building tucked away on a quiet downtown Toronto street,” said listing agent Amanda Gaskey. “The builder did a stellar job at creating a unique opportunit­y for a homebuyer to

have both the privacy of a house, along with the amenities of a boutique building, including 24-hour concierge service, and a party room with billiards and a lounge area with a walkout to a large common terrace and garden.

The building, with limestone and glass exterior, is within a walk of restaurant­s, shopping

and businesses, schools and parks, and subway stations. It’s also close to Yorkville, U of T, George Brown College, the Royal Ontario Museum, a tennis club and has quick access to the Don Valley Pkwy.

A private front door opens to the suite and into a foyer with marble tile floor and a double closet. A built-in shelving unit separates the foyer from the office, which has a herringbon­epatterned hardwood floor, a large window, and contempora­ry light fixture.

The living room features a herringbon­e hardwood floor, a linear gas fireplace with a floorto-ceiling marble surround and bordering built-in shelves with undermount lighting and a walkout to a terrace flanked by large windows.

Open to the living room, the dining room also has a herringbon­e hardwood floor, crown moulding and a modern chandelier.

Kitchen highlights include an island/breakfast bar, leathered quartzite counters and backsplash, panelled walls, a contempora­ry light fixture plus track lights and wall sconces, a pantry and high-end built-in stainless appliances that include a full-sized wine fridge.

A two-piece bathroom completes this floor.

From the kitchen, wood stairs with a glass rail lead to the second level and the spacious primary bedroom with herringbon­e hardwood floor, a large sitting area, a sliding glass-door balcony walkout flanked by windows, a walk-in closet with built-in organizers, and a fivepiece ensuite with an oval stand-alone soaker tub.

The second bedroom also has a herringbon­e hardwood floor, a double closet and a sliding glass-door balcony walkout plus floor-to-ceiling window.

The third bedroom has a herringbon­e hardwood floor, a double closet and a floor-toceiling window.

This floor includes a separate laundry room and a three-piece bathroom.

The lower-level terrace has a built-in planter and room for dining and lounging. The upper balcony has a glass rail and extends nearly the full width of the unit.
