The place

A two-bedroom, three-bathroom condo on the 29th floor of 101 Erskine Avenue. The place comes with many shared amenities, including a rooftop pool, a fitness centre, a movie theatre and a 24-hour concierge. It’s a quick drive from Bayview and the DVP; a short walk from the shops, restaurants and cinema on Yonge; and it has easy access to Eglinton subway station and the coming Crosstown LRT. 

The history

Tridel completed the 260-unit complex in 2020, and this unit’s current owner purchased it in May 2021. She paid for many upgrades, including electric blinds, a bar fridge, hardwood floors, and a quartz counter and backsplash in the kitchen. Now she’s found a house down the street with her life partner and is looking to sell.

The tour

The building’s entrance is landscaped, sheltered and accessible.

Residents can access the concierge and other services via the sparkly lobby.

Now for the home itself. In the foyer: a powder room and a hidden washer-dryer unit.

Here’s that powder room, outfitted with a funky mirror.

The kitchen is equipped with under-mount LED lighting, an integrated fridge and imported quartz.

Meanwhile, the kitchen island comes with more storage and a bar fridge.

Here’s a closer look at all the new hardware.

Opposite the kitchen is the corner living area, with floor-to-ceiling windows.

And here’s the main bedroom.

The main ensuite bathroom—tiled all over—has a glass shower with a rainfall head.

There’s a walk-in closet attached to the main suite too.

Here’s the second bedroom, which has space for an office or a reading nook.

This is the second ensuite. 

Finally, the unobstructed balcony view. Squint and you can see Scarborough in the distance.
