Home of the week: $3.95 million for two-storey lakefront penthouse

The sun rises over the master suite

ADDRESS: 58 Marine Parade Drive, Penthouse 3

NEIGHBOURHOOD: Mimico

AGENT: Irene Goodman FRI, Regency Park Realty Ltd.

PRICE: $3.95 million

THE PLACE: Every detail of this three-bedroom, two-storey lakefront penthouse was designed to accommodate a contemporary Toronto executive. The family room is equipped with built-in ebony wood entertainment cabinetry, while the bedrooms are adjoined with walk-in closets featuring every kind of jewellery, belt and tie compartment imaginable. The maple-panelled staircase leads to the master bedroom, where a pyramid skylight, balcony and floor-to-ceiling windows allow the morning light to stream in. The sexiest part of the suite is the five-piece bathroom, with a glass- and marble-enclosed shower that gives the feeling of being outdoors.

BRAGGING RIGHTS: The $250,000 worth of wireless electronics that control everything from the shades to the lighting to the TV (yes, like in Hitch).

BIG SELLING POINT: The 792-square-foot terrace that wraps around the main floor offers unparalleled views of the lake, the islands and the skyline.

POSSIBLE DEAL BREAKER: Situated west of Riverside Drive, it’s a tad out of the way from any worthwhile epicurean establishment.
