Condo of the Week: $1.8 million for a double-sized Etobicoke condo with a potential nanny suite

Address: 1135 Royal York Road, Unit 1102 Neighbourhood: Humber Valley Agent: Bill Gardiner, Royal LePage Real Estate Services Ltd., Brokerage (staging by Laurie Usypchuk) Price: $1,788,000

The place

This unit, the biggest in its building, was originally two separate suites before the sellers combined them. The sprawling layout includes a library, two dressing rooms, a “wellness room,” two balconies and a 1,275-square-foot terrace. Also included: unobscured sunrise views of the downtown skyline.

The history

The sellers bought the space when it was built, in 2011. They recently made $85,000 worth of improvements, including the addition of wide-planked hardwood throughout.

Here’s the living and dining area:

Big selling point

The third bedroom has its own separate entrance, ensuite bathroom and balcony, meaning it could be used as a nanny suite. The bedroom is currently set up as an office:

Possible deal breaker

The unit’s immense size and unique layout could be considered drawbacks. This place isn’t cheap, and it’s not set up for a young family, but it may serve the needs of more mature buyers.

By the numbers

• 4,450 square feet • $2,284.15 in monthly maintenance fees • 4 bathrooms • 3 bedrooms • 3 balconies • 2 parking spaces • 1 fireplace
