Address: 21 Burkebrook Place, Unit 121
Neighbourhood: Leaside-Bennington
Agent: Heather J. Lake, Royal LePage Real Estate Services Ltd., Johnston & Daniel Division, Brokerage
Price: $799,900

The Place: A two-bedroom unit on the first floor of a mid-rise building at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac.

Bragging Rights: It’s just a block from Bayview Avenue, where there will soon be a new Whole Foods. No inferior produce for the owners of this place, no sir.

Big Selling Point: The master bedroom opens out onto a 680-square-foot garden terrace. There’s a wrought iron fence around it, which makes it perfect for an owner who wants to let a dog run around off-leash. There’s also a gate on the fence, meaning barbecue guests will never need to walk through the condo with their shoes on.

Possible Deal Breaker: Because it’s at ground level, the terrace isn’t particularly private. Neighbours will know if they’re not invited to a garden party.
