Condo of the Week: $870,000 for a piece of a Victorian near Casa Loma

The history: This mansion was built in the early 1890s, but by the 1980s it had fallen into disrepair. In 1984, a developer converted it into six slick condo units while preserving the classic turreted exterior. This particular unit went through a full modernization in 2008, when a previous owner knocked down a kitchen wall to make room for a breakfast bar, updated the bathrooms and replaced the carpets.

Big selling point: There’s a huge cedar sauna on the lower level, a big tub with jets in the master en suite and two wood-burning fireplaces to keep things cozy. The buyer may never need to visit a spa again.

Possible deal breaker: The unit doesn’t come with any private outdoor space, although Robertson Davies Park is a two-minute walk away.

By the numbers:

• $868,000 • 1,980 square feet • $704 in monthly fees • 6 units in the building • 2 bedrooms • 2 bathrooms • 1 sauna • 1 space in a private garage
