Condo of the Week: $890,000 for a well-designed unit near Yonge and St. Clair
Click to view gallery
Address: 40 Rosehill Avenue , Unit 602
Neighbourhood: Rosedale-Moore Park
Agents: Don McHardy and Susan Froese McHardy , Royal LePage Real Estate Services Ltd., Brokerage
Price: $889,000
The Place: A three-bedroom suite just south of Yonge and St. Clair.
Bragging Rights: Although only some of the furniture is negotiable, the bare unit will maintain its contemporary feel thanks to a (mostly) synchronized colour palette, and other interior-design features.
Big Selling Point: To open up the space, the owner removed walls between the kitchen and living rooms. Also renovated: the second washroom. The owner borrowed space from the surrounding rooms in order to make the shower, and shower door, larger.
Possible Deal Breaker: The balcony is accessible only through one of the secondary bedrooms, meaning getting to fresh air may mean violating someone’s privacy. But that won’t be a problem if the buyer decides to turn that room into a den.

• $1,481 in monthly maintenance fees

why would you not want to buy this versus some small closeted downtown condo ? It’s huge, nice greeness looking outside, spacious, nice layout, right on subway line and much better. Why ? awesome kitchen and look at the closet space in the master bedroom. Wow. Amazing….instead someone would pay this amount for some small crappy CityPlace mess of a condo!!!
$900,000 will get you a pretty nice apartment downtown, as well.
