The Action: With so many units for sale at Eight Park in Bloor/Yorkville this summer, this corner penthouse was staged and filmed to bring in serious buyers. The exposure brought in 20 visitors. Threeplaced offers.
What They Got: At the corner of Yonge and Bloor streets is a mixed-use complex that is home to several amenities, such as Hudson's Bay, Longo's and a shopping concourse to the subway, as well as a condominium tower accommodating suites, such as this 1,015-square-foot unit.
At the unit's centre is a principal room with nine-foot ceilings, hardwood floors and access to a balcony, separate kitchen with granite counters and backlashes and larger of two bedrooms with his-and-her closets and bathroom.
Additional features encompass laundry facilities in a second bathroom, storage locker and parking, plus, monthly fees of $788 for utilities and use of a terrace, party, board, media and games rooms.
The Agent's Take: "This property had panoramic views over Rosedale Valley," Mr. Kholodov notes. "[Other units] didn't offer the views that this unit offered and they also weren't presented as well."
This unit also has a sense of grandeur. "This is one of the largest units in the building," Mr. Kholodov notes. "And the layout is quite unique, it offers a closed galley kitchen and an open living and dining area."
