The place

A two-bedroom, two-bathroom corner unit on the fifth floor of the Exhibit Residences complex, near Avenue and Bloor, directly across from the ROM. It comes with one parking spot—also on the fifth floor, housed in the above-ground parking structure—a storage locker and first-rate amenities. The building is surrounded by action: Yorkville to the east, U of T and the Annex to the west, Queen’s Park and the Discovery District to the south.

The current owners purchased this unit pre-construction and moved into it in 2017. They’re now looking to sell.
