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

The lobby of this Oakville condo resembles a luxury hotel

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. 

The condo is surrounded by greenery

There are recessed ceilings and hardwood floors throughout.

Here's another look at the condo's living room
