The place

A recently renovated two-bedroom, two-bathroom condo in Kingsway South, on Dundas, overlooking the trails of the Humber River. The home comes with a south-facing balcony, an underground parking spot and a suite of fun amenities. It’s within walking distance of Lambton Golf and Country Club to the north and Old Mill station to the south. And motorists are a short drive from both the QEW and the 427.

The history

This boutique complex, known as the Essence, was built in 2007. The unit’s current owners have lived in it since 2016 and are now looking for a larger place.

The tour

The six-storey brick-and-concrete building fronts Dundas and contains 129 units.

Here’s the stately lobby and library, which seems to have been modelled after nearby heritage mansions.

Now for the actual unit. Its floor plan was designed to mimic a family bungalow.

The kitchen has new stainless steel appliances and a quartz island.

There’s also a dining area with engineered hardwood floors plus a Galaxy light fixture.

Here’s a look at the living area.

Next door is the main bedroom, which faces the central courtyard.

The ensuite bathroom comes with a tiled shower, a six-drawer vanity and a funky square toilet.

This is the secondary bedroom, with a walkout to the balcony.

Here’s that balcony.

Across the way is the office—easily transformable if future residents require an additional bedroom.

The shared bathroom is equipped with an elevated glass shower with a rainfall head.

Moving on to the amenities, we have the party room and full bar. The building has plenty of visitor parking for hosting.

Fitness fanatics are also covered: this common gym has an adjacent sauna (not pictured).

Finally, here’s the rooftop terrace. It has a pergola-covered cooking and dining space with stunning views of the Humber.
