2013 Year in Review: Condo of the Week

There’s an undeniable thrill that comes with scoping out other people’s homes—whether or not you’re looking to buy. That’s why we spent the last year scouring Toronto real estate listings and profiling the most fascinating houses we could find for sale, from unassuming downtown semis to palatial suburban estates. While all had their merits, a few stood out (mainly because of their over-the-top opulence and multi-million-dollar price tags). Here, in descending order, the 10 most popular Houses of the Week of 2013.
