It’s difficult to tell that the unit is more than 30 years old:

The history

A couple based in the Caribbean bought this place a decade ago so they could spend time with their children, who were at boarding school in Canada. They ridded the place of all its 1980s trappings, even raising the ceilings in some rooms.

Big selling point

The asking price per square foot ($807) is lower than in newer buildings in the neighbourhood, but this place is no farther away from Holt’s and Hermès.

Possible deal breaker

There’s no private outdoor space. There is, however, a shared terrace—and the patio at La Société couldn’t be closer.

By the numbers:

• $1,825,000 • 2,260 square feet • $1,995 in monthly maintenance fees • 3 bathrooms • 3 bedrooms • 3 newer TVs with surround sound included • 1 fireplace • 1 parking space
