Agent: Christopher Andrew Bibby, Sutton Group Associates Realty Inc., Brokerage
Price: $815,000
The Place: A sprawling second-floor apartment in a seven-unit brick building from 1913.
Big Selling Point: The unit was recently renovated from corner to corner. The additions included African mahogany flooring, a modern kitchen and eye-catching lighting.
Bragging Rights: The condo comes with the building’s only private terrace, which just happens to have a view of the action at the exclusive Toronto Lawn Tennis Club.
Possible Deal Breaker: The unit has only one bathroom, with just one sink. There are, however, roughed-in connections in the space currently used for storage and laundry that would make it easy to add a second loo.

Absolutley solid. Brilliant unit, brilliant location. It would be shrewd of the purchaser to add in a bathroom from the roughed-in plumbing, and this becomes a family home straight away. Love it.
I’m not sure the location next to the Lawn is a good thing. First you’ve got a walk way right beside your house that is used to access the club from Rosedale. Then you have to put up with all the noise, that plunk-plunk back and forth all day every day from May until November.
That said, you’re close to everything.
I think they took a charming old apt and applied a cheap renovation to come up with a totally soulless series of boxes. Ugh, what a disgrace.
love this,great location and building!!
