The place
A two-plus-one-bedroom, two-bathroom rental on the 47th floor of the Eau du Soleil Sky Tower—Toronto’s tallest building west of the Financial District—in Humber Bay Shores. It comes with a parking spot, a locker and a 40-foot south-facing balcony. Perched over Humber Bay Park East and the Martin Goodman Trail, the home is within walking distance of the Queen streetcar, the legendary Cheese Boutique and the future Park Lawn GO station.
The history
The 66-storey tower was completed in 2019. Realtor Paula Reznik says that only the owner and their tenant have lived in the space since.

The tour
Here’s the skyscraper complex in all its glory. This unit is in the south tower, pictured here on the right.
Just past the entrance is the living area, with engineered hardwood floors that cover the entire unit.
The living room’s far side has a reading nook, which catches natural light from the sliding balcony doors.
The owners installed this place to eat or work in the living area recess.
Sharing a wall with the living area is the kitchen and breakfast nook.
In the kitchen: a stainless steel fridge, an electric stove, a tiled backsplash, a built-in microwave, a dishwasher and an engineered stone countertop.
Moving along reveals the main bedroom, equipped with a walk-in closet, an ensuite bathroom and direct access to the balcony.
Here’s that ensuite. It has a double vanity with plenty of storage.
The second bedroom is back by the foyer and has its own striking views of Lake Ontario.
A look at the second bathroom.
Now, the full view from the balcony, which extends the length of the unit. Squint on a clear day to see Hamilton across the lake.
Building residents also have access to a suite of top-notch amenities including a saltwater pool, a yoga and pilates studio, a sprawling gym, and a swanky party room.
