The tour 

The BluWater condo complex was completed in 2014 by Pemberton Group and has 204 units. 

The main entrance—with its concierge, dramatic columns and luxury fixtures—sets the tone. 

The foyer flows into the dining and living area. It has a powder room and a large closet. 

Here’s the open-concept space, which is defined by its many lake-facing windows.

The view from the dinner table creates a treehouse effect. 

There are recessed ceilings and hardwood floors throughout.

This reading nook with a curved window wall is just next to the living space. 

Down the hall is the kitchen. Highlights include a gas cooktop, a wine fridge, a peninsula with a sink and floor-to-ceiling windows. 

And don’t forget the coffee station. 

The kitchen balcony is for grilling and taking in the verdant surroundings.

This is main suite, which is located at the far end of the unit for privacy. It walks out to the giant terrace. (More on that later.)

And this is the main ensuite, equipped with a glass shower and a double vanity.

Here’s the suite’s walk-in closet.

The great views continue in the second bedroom. 

The second bedroom also has an ensuite—this time with a tub.

The wrap-around terrace stretches 300 square feet, allowing for various hangout zones, like this lounge for one. 

Then there’s this section of the terrace, just outside the main suite. 

That’s the 600-metre Petro Canada Pier in the distance.

Now for the amenities, starting with the nautical-themed gym.

This is the spa, in line with the complex’s beach-resort aesthetic.

Here’s that humongous shared terrace, with a barbecue station, a pool and a bunch of gardens.

Finally, a view of the condo from the water’s edge.
