Condo of the Week: $630,000 for a concrete loft with a killer kitchen in Riverdale
Condo of the Week: $630,000 for a concrete loft with a killer kitchen in Riverdale
Address: 90 Broadview Avenue, PH830
Neighbourhood: South Riverdale
Agent: Kendra Connelly, Sotheby’s International Realty Canada, Brokerage
Price: $629,000
The Place: A two-bedroom loft in a recently converted building near Queen and Broadview.
Big Selling Point: Both the master and second bedrooms have en suite washrooms. That’s great for guests. It also means housemates could easily live here without needing to fight over a shower.
Bragging Rights: A designer would love this kitchen, especially if he or she was a wino. It has two-toned Scavolini cabinetry, a marble backslash, high-end appliances, a space-saving quartz-topped island and a built-in wine rack that goes right up to the ceiling.
Possible Deal Breaker: The exposed concrete walls aren’t to everyone’s taste. But, as the current owner has demonstrated, that’s nothing a few shelves and some high-end wallpaper can’t fix.
By the Numbers:
• $629,000
• 954 square feet
• $524 in monthly maintenance fees
• 200 square foot terrace
• 100-bottle wine rack
• 11 foot ceilings
• 2 washrooms
• 2 bedrooms
• 1 parking space

- The master en suite, with special guest appearance by the photographer's camera. It's charming that the owner installed a shelf just for his (or her) naked-lady torso.

I think the word you’re going for is “oenophile”, not “wino”.
No Oenophile would store wine like that, thus wino is a better term
I like it! I actually don’t mind the exposed concrete. I think because it is bland, the eye then would focus on what was placed or hanging on it. A few subtle changes (shower curtains, perhaps the bit of wallpaper, and the light fixtures) and I think most could be very happy there. Well done Toronto Life – you showed a space that is actually livable.
The thing I noticed while looking at the photos? The camera on a tripod in the washroom.
Besides that, I dig the exposed concrete walls.
