Condo of the Week: 55A Avenue Road, Unit 603 — Click to view gallery

Address: 55A Avenue Road, Unit 603
Neighbourhood: Yorkville
Agents: Alex Pino and Veronica Lord, Sotheby’s International Realty Canada, Brokerage
Price: $2,650,000

The Place: A three-bedroom, four-bathroom suite in the west building of The Residences at Hazelton Lanes.

Bragging Rights: There are 29 suites in the west building, 20 of which—including this unit—are two storeys. Only two other units boast this place’s roomy three-bedroom setup, though.

Big Selling Point: At a loss for items with which to adorn the walls? Also up for sale is the owners’ art collection, which includes several paintings by Nikola Nikola and C.W. Slade, as well as eleven sculptures by Faustino Aizkorbe.

Possible Deal Breaker: Unlike other Yorkville mainstays, this building doesn’t provide direct elevator access to suites. Residents can, however, take elevators directly to the retail level, which is currently undergoing a swanky redesign (renovations are expected to be complete by the end of 2015).
