(Image: Caralyn Ing)
Address: 25 Oxley Street , Townhouse 3
Neighbourhood: King West
Agent: Nick Whittington, LoftStyles.com
Price: $954,900
The place: A townhome in a 16-storey building, with a balcony and plenty of storage space.
The history: This eight-year-old unit was originally rented to a member of the Toronto Raptors, but has mostly been lived in by the current owner and her student-aged daughter, who is heading off to study in the Caribbean. The owner made plenty of upgrades after the baller moved out, including a kitchen revamp and the addition of some custom closets to make extra room for boots and shoes.
Big selling point: The home has a private garage right behind the kitchen, which is not only convenient, but also provides an extra level of security.
Possible deal breaker: Both the front and back windows look across at other condos. Good thing the unit comes with motorized blinds.
By the numbers:
• $954,900
• 1,200 square feet (approximately)
• $618 in monthly fees
• 60-square-foot balcony (approximately)
• 20-foot ceiling height in the living area

• 3 bathrooms
• 2 bedrooms
• 1 private garage

Killer view of Zesty Coffee.
LOL
This post originally said that the buyer of this condo would need to invest in motorized blinds in order to shut out out the views of other nearby buildings. In fact, the unit comes with motorized blinds preinstalled—so, that’s nice. We’ve edited the post to reflect this.
…where a Raptor used to live
Seriously – really – does that matter one bit? So what if some Raptor lived there. Such rubbish that is.
