The centre of this historic area is its popular outdoor market, which has become a hot spot for tourists and a major shopping destination reflecting the diverse cultural mix of this colourful neighbourhood. Toronto’s only year-round outdoor market is a day-long adventure where merchants sell their goods right out on the sidewalks, dining abounds, and the array of fresh & prepared foods for sale evokes an old world feel. Peripheral shopping includes nearby Chinatown on Spadina, Portugal Village on Dundas Street West, and the trendy shops and along Queen West which provide residents with an eclectic mix of antique shops, art galleries, theatres, entertainment, bookstores, vintage fashion stores, cafes, natural food markets and restaurants.

The local park and meeting place for Kensington residents is Bellevue Square, conveniently located just steps from the building. To the immediate south of this park is Alexandra Park, with its outdoor pool and child care centre; to the south east, Grange Park directly behind the AGO offers a wading pool, playground, and numerous trees & walkways. Cecil Street Community Centre at Spadina & College has a large hall that is used for theatre productions, sports, games, parties & weddings. The Shaw College Public Library offers reading material in a number of languages that reflect the area’s diversity.

With its proximity to the hip Little Italy, Trinity Bellwoods & Queen West areas, there is also very easy access to Toronto’s business and financial districts – minutes by car, while the frequent Bathurst and Spadina streetcars connect to the Bloor and Yonge lines in minutes. Desirable destinations such as the Eaton Centre, Air Canada Centre, the Art Gallery of Ontario and the shaded University of Toronto campus buildings are also nearby, and the Gardiner and Lake Shore Boulevard are a short drive away.

Beautifully decorated in rich colours, the immaculate suite is ready to move right in and shows like a model suite. A spacious foyer with ceramic tile floor welcomes guests into the open concept main level, where a lovely sleek kitchen beckons visitors to sit at the centre island and enjoy drinks or help with meal preparation on this workspace! The kitchen features above-counter lighting, halogen lights, and five quality appliances as well as plenty of tasteful cupboards. Ceramic tile backsplash adds colour.

The open concept living/dining rooms feature a gorgeous, sunny south-east view dramatically emphasized by the 14’ concrete ceilings and two big windows. Sparkling pale hardwood floors ensure durability and elegance. A modern four-piece bath with ceramic tile flooring, a good sized vanity and mirror, and gleaming fixtures serves the suite.

A floating staircase hides a built-in desk underneath – the perfect office! The carpeted stairs lead to the loft bedroom, a peaceful place of rest overlooking the bright main floor for a pleasantly secluded feeling. A spacious walk-in closet provides extra storage for two wardrobes (attention couples!) The bedroom features new berber style carpet and a convenient laundry room.

Other amenities of this beautiful suite include no downstairs neighbours and few suites on the hall for added quiet, plus low maintenance fees that include heat, water and parking.
