The history
A Toronto chiropractor bought this corner unit at the Epic on Triangle Park Condos last year. He redid the bathrooms’ tiles, refinished the balcony and installed automated blinds for the floor-to-ceiling windows. He also added some personal touches: painted accent walls, marble tiling with a custom neon sign in the living space, and French frosted doors for the bedrooms. He’s now moving to Europe for work.

Major perks

Possible deal breaker
The lack of a full kitchen may be a bummer for avid home cooks, but Queen West’s best restaurants are a short walk away.
