Condomonium: $2.3 million for a penthouse with a garage that morphs into a car wash
ADDRESS: 21 Nelson Street, Unit Uph18
NEIGHBOURHOOD: Waterfront Communities–The Island
AGENT: Nicole Van Stone, Brad J. Lamb Realty
PRICE: $2,340,000
THE PLACE: A two-level, south-facing penthouse in a 35-storey building in the Entertainment District. It’s available fully furnished, if the interior design by Cecconi Simone Inc. strikes your fancy.
BRAGGING RIGHTS: The cantilevered stairs may look light and dainty but rigging them up was a backbreaking project that used 7,000 pounds of steel and custom glass.
BIG SELLING POINT: For car-lovers wary of leaving their wheels in communal lots, this suite has its own private garage. Not only does it fit two vehicles, but it doubles as a hot-and-cold carwash. It’s likely the only condo in the city with such a car-coddling set-up.
POSSIBLE DEAL BREAKER: The glowing mirrors and vanities in the master ensuite are certainly cool, but they may feel a little too nightclubby first thing in the morning.
BY THE NUMBERS: • $2,340,000 • 2,398 square feet • $1,470.26 in monthly maintenance fees • 476-square-foot terrace • 3 bedrooms plus den (or fourth bedroom) • 3 bathrooms • 2 level • 2-car private parking garage • 2 dishwashers
