Condomonium: $2.5 million for a two-bedroom condo with a terrace bigger than some apartments
Condomonium: $2.5 million for a two-bedroom condo with a terrace bigger than some apartments
ADDRESS: 20 Niagara Street, Unit 101
NEIGHBOURHOOD: Waterfront Communities–The Island
AGENT: Nick Whittington, Brad J. Lamb Realty
PRICE: $2,450,000
THE PLACE: A two-bedroom loft in 20 Niagara, a mid-rise building credited with kick-starting the condo colonization around Bathurst and King in the late 1990s. The development has won a raft of architecture awards, including one from the Ontario Association of Architects.
BRAGGING RIGHTS: It’s the largest unit in the building, which translates into enough space in the master bedroom for two separate ensuite bathrooms, each with its own walk-in closet—perfect for partners who don’t want to see each other before their first coffee of the day.
BIG SELLING POINT: Terraces line both the east and west sides of the condo. The eastern terrace, which overlooks Victoria Memorial Park, has been fully tricked out for entertaining with a kitchen, bar and fire pit (who doesn’t love a good fire pit?).
POSSIBLE DEAL BREAKER: The unit is on the first level. Although that puts the terrace roughly 12 feet off the ground, some condo owners may prefer a bit more removal from the park patrons below.
BY THE NUMBERS:

POSSIBLE DEAL BREAKER: The unit is on the first level. Although that puts the terrace roughly 12 feet off the ground, some condo owners may prefer a bit more removal from the park patrons below.

• Over 1,000 square feet of outdoor space

Really sounds like a Brad Lamb listing! Can you turn one of the bathrooms into a bedroom ?! What a craziness for a condo ? 2 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms ? Are you letting all the drunkards from The Thompson up to pee? Dunno about this one, at this price, per sq feet… I really dont know. It just seem basic.. I am not WOWED!!
not bad at all. has down-sizer all over it. more of ths.
i majority of the people who live in this building are f-ing douchebags.
They feel they’re self entitled to the park, which they don’t own.
Pretty sweet layout but those hideous little windows are a deal-breaker at that price.
You’re gonna get some hop-ons
That’s a ridiculous sum to pay to smell the slaughterhouse.
where is the pool???
and the view of the park is not enough for me
That size overlooking a park with a terrace like that is hard to find downtown. I like the doors to the terrace and the finishings look first class. Would make sense for downsizers or downtowners. Nice front yard!
Actually second biggest in the building. Ours is bigger!
A private elevator for a first floor condo. Get a life people.
This is a beautiful unit with near perfect finishes, a great floor plan and amazing terrace. However I’m not a fan of being on the first floor and $960 per sqft is way too steep for this market.
@Jess – nice. Guess you don’t have a friend or relative who uses a wheelchair or walker or use one yourself.
