Condo of the Week: $2.8 million for a house-sized suite on St. Clair

The condo for sale at 112 St. Clair Avenue West

Address: 112 St. Clair Avenue West, Unit 902 Neighbourhood: Yonge-St. Clair Agent: Kevin Crigger and Francesca Milan, Royal LePage Real Estate Ltd., Johnston and Daniel Division Price: $2,848,000

The place: A never-lived-in penthouse in a luxurious building with just 20 suites.

The history: The architecture firm Page+Steele turned this insurance company office block into a modern condo building just in time for the recession. The developer had envisioned an 8,000-square-foot mega-penthouse encompassing the entire ninth and tenth floors, but it didn’t sell, so he split it into two 4,000-square-foot homes. The south-facing unit sold a few years ago, but this one didn’t. The agent teamed up with designer Kim Lambert to stage the space using about $500,000 worth of borrowed lighting, artwork and rugs.

Big selling point: It has as much space for party guests as a typical Rosedale home. The agent says it could easily host a 150-person cocktail reception.

Possible deal breaker: The unit faces north, so instead of a classic CN Tower and Lake Ontario view, the owner will be looking at North York. The vista can still be quite lovely in autumn when the leaves turn.
