The Action: The popularity of an eight-storey building near Ramsden Park and Rosedale subway station means vacancies are often fleeting. So as soon as this one-bedroom-plus-den suite was posted late January, a dozen buyers requested showings and one reappeared to make a deal the next day.
What They Got: This 1,133-square-foot suite is of standard size in a more than decade-old mid-rise, but its original two-bedroom-plus-den layout was reconfigured as a one-bedroom-plus-den space with an extra large living and dining area by the balcony and open-concept kitchen.
Enclosed is a den and master with his-and-her closets, second balcony and six-piece ensuite, which is the larger of two bathrooms.
Laundry machines, a locker and parking are priced into the unit that owes $807 monthly towards water, heating, 24-hour concierge, a guest suite, party and recreation rooms.
The Agent's Take: "It's a very well run building, very well located, and the maintenance fees are reasonable," says agent Boris Kholodov. "And it's very private and quiet – out of the hustle and bustle of Yorkville – yet allowing people to be close to everything."
The appeal of this particular unit largely rests on its recent makeover. "This unit has been entirely renovated," Mr. Kholodov notes. "The partition between the guest bedroom and main area was removed to create a large living space conducive to entertaining and living in style."
