The history

The building, a 1920s Art Deco garment factory, was converted to condos 15 years ago. A nurse bought this unit a few years ago, but has since moved to Scotland.

Big selling point

The location is great for anyone who needs to travel for work. It’s walking distance to Billy Bishop Airport and a short drive away from the nearest Gardiner Expressway on-ramp.

Possible deal breaker

The area is still adjusting to its influx of condos, and at the moment there aren’t a lot of places to buy groceries. Relief is on the way, though: a huge Loblaws is expected to open at Lake Shore and Bathurst in 2019.

By the numbers

• $600,000 • 800 square feet • 200-square-foot terrace • $520 in monthly maintenance fees • 11-foot ceilings • 1 bedroom • 1 bathroom • 1 parking space • 1 den
